I don't know why we changed that and at what point in history it happened. Probably just because we tend to be lazy and leaving out that one letter made it seem easier. LOL
I never realized you guys were the ONLY people to spell it without the U. Please don't take this personally, I'm sure if it were your personal choice you wouldn't be lazy, but what the hell!?! If it were possible & I had nothing better to do I really would like to go back in time & watch over the American use of the letter U & find out why they decided to drop it in so many words. That may sound sad but I really don't like America, not individual Americans, America, & I'm interested in working out exactly why I dislike it.
So far I have; McDonalds, American Politics, George Bush, everything brought up in the documentary "Supersize me", Law suits brought out at every opportunity, giant chain stores such as Walmart etc, generic lazyness in most things including spelling things in a most silly way& things to this effect.
I take no offense because most Americans dislike England for similar reasons. I think it's all about pride for your country and there is no reason to be offended by that.
Haha, XD I'm sure you're right about the pride in your country thing, it's just funny hearing it. I'm the most anti-England person I know, so hearing that which I know to be partly the case really tickles me.
Glad you didn't take offense, had you been a more n00bish person my comment had some serious argument potential.
Edit: I love how active this thread is at, what is for me, 9:30 in the morning. And in America that would be even earlier, right???
