Spelling

[ghost2]

Is there some alternate universe where woah has become the correct spelling of whoa? Just asking.

yes. it's called the internet. :)

*is also slightly annoyed by the new spelling as it just looks bloody weird, but ah well...language is a frightfully chameleonic beast when you get right down to it*

I can't stand woah. It's wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong. I tolerate Tardis and alright, but I draw the line at woah. *headdesk*

lolcat land?

Your processor Snape icon is priceless.

My sister used it the other day and I went "Whoa! What's going on!"

It's really bizarre and very irritating...

I personally think that "woah" should only be used in appropriate context, for instance in "liek woah."

Well, it does work in lolcat land. Not so much in regular writing, though.

When I was hunting for new icons, I just had to include the Snape one.

I know! It might seem like a picky thing to dislike, but it just gets on my nerves.

Yes, it works in that context. Which is not where I saw it, in two places, the other day.
