You've been here for 15 years and are contributing to the hijack of this thread? Really? The others are already well on their way to losing any credibility they might have had. I will certainly not lend any advice on future questions and posts. This is not Facebook, Tumblr or Twitter @Evan Saltis is only a couple years older and far wiser than the lot of you.
We weren't really hijacking its called education and some uneeded post by the op read the first and second page's if you didn't.
I served the greater good by illustrating various spellings for “penny” and definitions of each variation.
Fairly certain it's olly olly oxen free, I'm no linguist, etymologist, lexicographer, or philologist, but I've played a game or two of hide and seek in my time!
Agreed... the OP never asked a question and he's not been back to answer any of the question WE'VE asked
Okay, just chill out... this thread has taken its turn and is stuck in that gear... if the OP was bothered he, A. would've said something about it or, B. would've answered some of our questions we did legitimately ask. There is no reason you should've beat down on us. That, sir, is what makes you seem illogical, rude, and a bully. I have no patience for people who are fuddy duddies and don't like to have fun every now and again. After the thread had gotten off topic and stayed off for a while, that was it, there was no going back. If you had a problem with it, you should have said something earlier in the thread... Last, the OP contributed to the off-topicness of this thread. Had he further elaborated there would've never been a problem. Had he tried to get the thread back on topic, there never would've been a problem. Again, this thread is so far off topic you'd need to use the Hubble-Space Telescope in order to see the beginning of it. Thank you for your time sir, -Dark
Hah! It worked! Got your skins all prickly and your dander up. PLUS, I nearly got you to your 6th page. You should congratulating this old bully.
