Well I am all sorts of emotion right now because my laptop died on Friday and I can access the internet at the apartment only on my Wii!!! My work comp is ok but certain my gaming sites are filtered out as well as some awesome humor sites as well. Then again I will be moving back to my home with my dad at the month so it wouldn't really matter about internet for the most part only my work will be able to provide. Had to cancel my World of Warcraft account too but I think I needed to quit that addiction though.

Sorry, can't do that either thanks to the linguistic phenomenon known as a "cultism."

In any language, when a popular word conflicts with another causing confusion among the (usually illiterate / ill-educated) population, it either does not evolve as it should or it is replaced by another term. I could give you a number of examples in Spanish, Portuguese and French but think of your own language and irregular verbs. Verbs with irregular past participles. Mis-pronounced words that are wrong but are still common.

Cultisms are quite common in religious terms. They "stagnate" due to the "cultos" use. Dipthongs don't compact, vowels open. Terms change meaning. One of the only reasons that we have theories as to how Latin sounded (only theories) is thanks to some who tried to correct popular pronunciation and usage. TENERUM not TENREUM.

Look it up. I ain't kidding! LOL!!!! Football here now refers to the "gridiron" game. Ingrained into the popular mentality. As such, it will never go back. Even if we DO also play rugby!

Well, ok, ok, OK... I suppose they didnt invent the language, since languages develop (as you had to point out... Smartypants...), but they did pass it on to their North American colonies, through... Well, colonists. So basicaly, you are a Brit, and you better start calling the sport football!

Well, English did invent the language as a whole... But in any case... I use "football" because thats how I was taught when I was learning English. And it seems that everyone who learns English as a foreign language is taught the same. Which explains why we (combined with the Brits) get pissed when you call our holy ceremony a nerdy name like soccer.

As for the pitch vs. field and elevator vs. lift... I dont know. Frankly, I thought that in both cases, both words apply in American English, and English English.

I never said the English didn't. Only that they invented the term. There is an accent in Spanish, too: fútbol. There are also other countries that still refer to the sport as "soccer." I only named two.

How is it that no one gets mad about calling it a "field" vs. "pitch?" Why no major issues between "elevator" and "lift" for that matter?

Tell it to this guy:


And just for the record... I am ignorant of the history of the term, but I do know that Brits (as well as Irish) call it football now. And the word echoes in German "Fußball", Serbian "Fudbal" and Spanish "Futbol", which all refer to the same sport, the one that Americans and Canadians call... ugh... "Soccer"...

Americans are not the only ones. It referred to a "code" of rules and the term "soccer" actually started in England. Referred to the "association" of people who followed this established set of rules often distinguished from Rugby Football rules.

Canada is one of the next biggest countries to refer to this established set of rules as soccer.

Obviously, I've had this question before...

Find someone you trust in a country that is recieving the shipping and have them mailed to them, then they can mail them on to you. May take longer than a slow boat to China, but you would eventually get them!

Grrr I was just looking on converse.com to see if they ship overseas (I didn't think they did originally) so that I know for when the AC/DC chucks are released. They do ship overseas and have a list of countries they ship to. Guess who's country is NOT on that list!
They even ship to Honduras, Slovakia, Norway, all sorts, but not here!! WAAAAAAH They even ship to Australia, which is freakin right next door. Not fair.

Is that for you and Flora???  You plus 1... on your insurance...  American medical system is outrageous.

I payed 525.00 a month, for me plus 1,   ..  And I used to work for 9 doctors..

People put down Canada for our medical system.. but I have not had a problem yet,,  In fact they are more curious here to investigate whats causing your problem, rather just write you a perscription for an expensive drug that the doctor is 9 times out of 10 getting a kick back payment from the pharm, companies for writing..  I have seen the check in the mail myself...  And The insurance companies reward Doctors for NOT running Tests.. because it costs them to much money,,,,  Its a vicious cycle .. And its our health that is at risk, and they dont seem to care,, anything to make a buck.

Holy crap Spa! That's an enormous amount to pay! I pay about $30 a month for health insurance - it's not quite as full a cover as I'd like, but I'l going to switch companies soon to one that gives me full cover i.e. will cover any operation to it's full cost etc. And it will be about the same price per month. Wow, I'm pretty flabbergasted by how much you have to pay. It's obscene.

If your poor in America, JT you may have all the health care services you wish, but if your middle class and have bad insurance or no insurance at your job your left to pay hefty amounts for insurance out of pocket. My company has good insurance and they pay a hefty amount of my insurance but even with that, I'm paying 220.00 per month out of my money.
