Just like when you spell embarrassment with only one r?

Actually Kirk, no.
That's not embarrassment, that's just lack of education. I blame the school teachers. 8-)

It's more than nine letters anyway, even with an R missing, so who gives a shit how you spell it?

It's been a conundrum before - the answer was definitely EMBARRASS - that's how I remember how it's spelt.

But that's EMBARRASS not EMBARRASSMENT! No-one needs to know how to spell the latter. It might be like PRONUNCIATION and PRONOUNCE. An O goes missing in one and who knows - maybe an R goes missing in the other.

OK - I give up. It's not worth the fight.

Gevin has a way of winning arguments even when he's totally wrong by making the alternative (continuing the argument) seem worse than death. I wonder, Gev, have you ever worked in customer "service" for National Rail?

Fuck off. I was just making a joke that Kirk seemed to totally miss.

"Fuck off" was in jest itself. And the other part was to be clear to Kirk and/or anyone else who needed it.

Anyway...

You're never clear to me, Gavin. You're up there on my list of opaqueness with Jason.
