    The funny thing is that since it’s an actual word the spell checker might not be of any use to see that it might not be the word you’re actually wanting to use. And with the amount of people using “payed” instead of “paid” the dictionaries will probably include “payed” as an alternative way to conjugate “to pay” in the currency sense.











  • Yeah, that was about what I thought it was…
    Same with the attempt to make people call pedophiles "MAP"s instead. (For those who haven’t been made aware of the abbreviation; it is meant to stand for “Minor Attracted Person”. While it’s a more broad term than pedophile, since it includes the other age ranges (Something like hebephile and such, I don’t remember them all, learned about it from a joke a comedian told), for normal conversations I think pedophile works fine for talking about everyone attracted to people below a certain age of which we (society) deem them capable of consenting to some things)
