I leave you this little conundrum of doom whilst I am gone. Enjoy. ^_^

I like to be on top of things, if you get my meaning.

I stick with what spell check tells me.

What does spellcheck know? Do you know how many times I've used words that it didn't even know? It doesn't even have "doughnut", even though it's the origin of donut. It's longer, true, but
still a word and not yet archaic.
Anyone who bases their decision by using a spellchecker is a silly angel. ;p

Oh, I break spellcheck frequently, believe me. In fact, spellcheck for firefox doesn't even register spellcheck as a word.
That aside, for easy words, when I'm typing a million miles an hour, it's a nice thing to fall back to when I'm lazy and need to correct stuff quickly.

But what does that have to do with picking a side? XD

Nothing, I cheated.

How can you cheat when what you did had nothing to do with the side-picking? O.o

Because I bypassed going through with the decision making process of picking a side- instead, I used an external device to drive into one and selected that one as a result. :O

That doesn't mean you cheated. ;/ It just means that you made me cry.

Well, if it makes you sadder, someone else sided with spellcheck, judging by the most recent vote.

Oh, no, I'm not sadder at all. I feel much better since
Wikipedia is more substantial than a spellchecker. ^_^

"Gray" has always struck me as an unattractive blight upon the word grey, especially since my knowledge of spelling is almost entirely visually-based.

I've actually always thought that everyone spelled it Grey until just recently, and now I refuse simply to avoid conformity. Gray looks a little odd in my personal opinion.

Where did gray come from, anyway? Did it start with last names and seep into the color?
