FINALLY...someone I "know" actually used the word 'nother in the proper context! YAY! (((((wyndhy)))))

Do you realize how many people I know who use the word 'nother...but don't realize it's a contraction and that the more appropriate word would be "other" or "another" 99.9% of the time???????? AND...they pronounce and spell it "nuther".

The reason why I know they spell it that way? Because I ask them to spell it for me whenever it's used...by anyone who uses it (to point out the improper use)...ie: "That's a whole nuther story." Or..."Nuther place, nuther time."

OMG...it drives me up a wall!!! And people probably hate me for acting like their 4th grade English teacher but I can't help myself.

Um...ahem...uh...WTF is the topic? I got off...but I'm feeling much better now!

Oh...SUV's.............yep, that's what it was. I trust me...but I don't trust other drivers with SUV's in the snow, rain, sleet, hail or even on a clear, sunny day!

/me walks out of the thread without mentioning the Durango 4x4 under my carport.
