This Week's Check In

[przed.livejournal.com]

It's time for this week's writer check in.

Inspired by merentha13's suggestion of an online slang dictionary, I thought I'd include a few other Brit checking resources:

List of British word not widely used in the U.S. (Pretty much as advertised, a big long list of Brit-specific words)

U.K. vs. U.S. spelling (For when you're debating using "ise" or "ize")

Dictionary of English Slang (This one's my personal fave)

And inspired by my own incipient panic, how about a poll on how we're all doing:
[Poll #1737374]

Bodie and Doyle are very curious to hear how you're all doing...

I believe it's very good for *causing* amnesia, at least that's what the lads always claim.

*nods* Yep, excellent for causing it... perhaps not so good at curing it, but hey, it's worth a shot if you've already got amnesia. You know how two negatives make a positive? Maybe if you already have amnesia, copious quantities of alcohol will cure it. Yep, that's my theory and I'm sticking to it!

I like theories, theories are good... and who needs braincells.

Agreed! I have a theory, don't confuse me with facts!

You know, scientists say the average human only uses 5% of their brain... that gives you lots of spare braincells to destroy!
