hozz1235 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I always get a chuckle from this tip. But it IS important to be stylish when you're alone and trying to survive a brutal, hostile environment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sito Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 I like the subtle humour in the clothing descriptions. Something else that is funny is that HL being a Canadian company based in BC uses a forum site with American spell check. The word "humour" is red underlined and wants me to write humor instead. Ok. So humor it is then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kranium Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 It's just a test of your fortitude. Superfluous U's are the Canadian way. Do not relent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 We Australians also favour extra vowels in our words. It adds colour to a sentence. Soon, it becomes a common behaviour using the old honourable British English method. You might harbour doubts, but rumours that Canada's southern neighbour's spelling is the correct method can only be treated with good humour and dismissed as a labour of fancy. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankfully I don't actually use these words off the internet! So there's hope for me yet! ☺ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
