Dusk is pooky, the colours just suck.
*note: No, it just means your accent is that bad, it actually sounds like 'col-or'. Similar to Aluminium. Lazy != cool.

i think gray default blows >.<, I used nightvision and starlight for ages and when i reinstalled dx and had to look at that horrible gray thing... ack.

Imo nearly every other option is way better than gray.


*note: notice how i didnt use the word col-o/ou-r once in my post. Also notice how I said didnt since that was true before the previous sentence.

Colour sounds gay in general imho, if you add an extra U to that word in here, you would be considered retarded.

We took your language and made it better :].

Toilet - loo

Bullshit - rubbish

I love colours!
*note If you pronounce it 'culler', then you ARE saying it like the english, poonce. ¬_¬
You would have to pronounce it "Col-Or" (Col as in 'Column', and Or, as in, 'or'.) to say it the stup--American way, otherwise it's British. (Minus the British accent.)

You Americans are just homophobic about U's, aren't you?

Seriously, 'Mom' sounds so fscking retarded.

American 'English' reminds me of a dimwit going to a english class and getting it all wrong.
Example;

Jam:

Jelly:

Two totally different bloody foods, with two totally different uses, and Americans STILL get it wrong! Jesus.

Nope. We pronounce it culler. You brits pronounce it col-or.

The word "mom" rules, "mum" sounds like the first half of a zombie wrapped in toilet paper.

Normal english language reminds me of polite, little fairies.

For example: when English people have sex:

"... I say! Whos vagina ISZ THAT?
... Who is your father? Your birth father, woman!"

Or when chasing bad guys:

"... I say! Slow down there ol bean!
... What on this green erth do you think you were doing? .. how much TEA have you had this morning, ol chap?"

I don't get jam nor jelly wrong, Jam tastes like crap so does Jelly. But at least I don't drink tea, Rupert! I prefer Red Bull over Tea ol chap!

Incorrect.

I am yet to hear a British person say "Col-or", as apposed to ther yanks I have heard saying "col-or". Ignoring all that, the bastardised version has no bloody U, there for you forfit all rights to make any 'U' or 'er' sound. Aka, 'col-or' or nothing.

Admit it, you are saying it the British way, but are not capable of spelling it correctly.
(I blame America. It's never been able to do anything by it's self, even earn it's independence, the French got you lot that.)

The word "mom" rules, "mum" sounds like the first half of a zombie wrapped in toilet paper.


I can bet you that you said 'Mum' when you were a baby.
(Assuming you are actually pronouncing it correctly, as in "Mo-m", instead of "Mm-um".)

"... I say! Whos vagina ISZ THAT?

Stop. Watching. The. Bill. FFS.

'Proper' english does not need to be poilte, nor does the choice in words. The britophobic media just tells you that.

Seriously, you'll be hard pressed hearing a polite word coming out of an Kiwi farmer, yet they still manage to get it right, despite having a lower average IQ then their sheep!
(New Zealand has 11 sheep for every one person.)

I don't get jam nor jelly wrong, Jam tastes like crap so does Jelly. But at least I don't drink tea, Rupert! I prefer Red Bull over Tea ol chap!


Who does?

But seriously, drinking tea has nothing to do with the language and your bastardisation of it.

Did not understand that :?

The argument about color and colour is stupid and boring to be honest.
Don't forget that the brits actually made the language and then you americans just went along and tried to simplify it. You took away the u for your own convience :P

Lmao @ all the brits attacking me.

I am yet to hear a British person say "Col-or", as apposed to ther yanks I have heard saying "col-or"


I have yet to hear a British person try to pronounce color right, and every time they try it makes me laugh xD

Ignoring all that, the bastardised version has no bloody U, there for you forfit all rights to make any 'U' or 'er' sound. Aka, 'col-or' or nothing.


Haven't you heard of homophones?

Besides, the french people use extra X's and J's, so if I were to say "Devereux", it would be pronounced "de ver UX" because the X is not supposed to be pronounced the correct way?

Admit it, you are saying it the British way, but are not capable of spelling it correctly.
(I blame America. It's never been able to do anything by it's self, even earn it's independence, the French got you lot that.)


I'll have you know that I am a grammar nazi >=D. Not atm, but when it comes to proper/formal greetings, I am really a grammar nazi. Besides; you "lot" had the Indians helping you out. The french allied with us because you HOLD THEM AS SLAVES IN CANADIA XD!

I can bet you that you said 'Mum' when you were a baby.


Mommy more precise. If I were to say "mummy", i would be watching a horror movie based in Egypt.

'Proper' english does not need to be poilte, nor does the choice in words. The britophobic media just tells you that.


So let's see here:

There's the britophobic media
The bible bashing media
The propoganda media (FOX)
And the not-so-correct article-based media

And theres one form of media I trust, and that is .... WIKIMEDIA.

Seriously, you'll be hard pressed hearing a polite word coming out of an Kiwi farmer, yet they still manage to get it right, despite having a lower average IQ then their sheep!


The accent sounds polite though, and fancy as well.

Who does?

But seriously, drinking tea has nothing to do with the language and your bastardisation of it.
(Post a clip of your self saying aluminium, so I can rofl, please.)


I would much rather hear your voice, australians just sound so funny xD
