1. Not as annoying as "loose" for "lose" (nt)

3. That's a bit extreme.
Maybe you should start by beating yourself with a stick and work up to shooting.

5. how about spelling Venezuela as "you know, that place... near Mexico"
At least with Colombia/Columbia they get MOST of the letters right. But even scarier, ask how may American high-school and college kids (and most adult to be honest) can even find Colombia on a map?

6. I'm tired of bullshit lounge threats.
In South America you can find a country called Columbia.

13. Yeah, well I live in British Columbia...
...and I've seen it spelled "British Colombia" too many times to count.

We can't both be right, so I suggest we settle this by calling British Columbia "B.C.", and Colombia, just "C".
