See reply #3

I always wanted to post one of these "go look at my other post because you aren't worthy of an original thought" replies. They sound so fuckwitty.

4. Stop it Now.

Or else I will put you on "Ignore." :spank:

5. Nope. Makes me think of Dickens.

Mmmm... Dickens. :)

6. Other, I wouldn't have guessed that &c. meant etc.

[jpgray]

7. The original ampersand looked like "et"

And "et" means "and" in Latin. See? Someone has learned something in this heretofore worthless thread.

8. I had to vote 'other'

Because the second option said "it's one less key to hit" whereas it's actually one fewer key to hit. But then I too am a pretentious &c. type. I type it because I prefer the shape which it makes especially when hand-written as the upper loop of the & tends to be very effusive.

9. Seems kinda dumb if you expect other people to understand you

If you like being misunderstood, then it might just be a stroke of brillance.

Oh, and 1/2 a gday
