You're loving that c with the little tail, eh?
I saw the word on the back of an LP this morning, describing the composer, and when I looked it up I just knew the forum would be a better place if I shared with yins.
So, on this most-romantic day, if I were to offer this and request you to be my Valentine I'm guessing there would be a queue at my door running all the way down the street.

We went out to a restaurant yesterday. This prompted a question in my mind. Will I ever again be served food in a restaurant by a person who does NOT have some ugly ornament hanging from their nostrils?

Contemplating that thought ^^ brought to mind another. Does it seem to anyone else that people who conform to the newest non-conformist social attitude and then demand that their conformance be accepted in the name of tolerance are almost always the least tolerant of anyone who doesn't conform to their newfound non-conformity?
Might just be me.

In the word scent…is the s or the c silent?
Damnit don’t laugh at me…I wanna know lol
Either/or? Well the spelling does distinguish it from its homonyms.

@Rdp77 it's the C that's silent.
C's are never silent.

Ever wonder why when a big dog and a little dog mate you get a medium sized dog with stumpy legs? Why never a chihuahua with two foot long legs?

Silent C: The letter C is silent when it is in the letter combination of SC. Examples: scissors, ascent, fascinate, muscle.
The letter C is also silent before the letters K and Q. Examples: block, puck, lock, acknowledge, aqua, acquit, acquiesce.

I never pronounce the C in aqua.
I don’t think @ShawnOL he meant grammatical but rather acronymical. And I agree. All Cs are mouthy, “never silent”.
On a personal note, I've noticed a correlation between alcohol content and a C's ability to remain silent.
Why isn't Xerox spelled Zerox?
Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.
Saw an energy drink advertised on TV called Booty Sweat. Think I'll stick with Peter's Famous Beans.
Imagine how happy barn owls were when humans invented barns.
And also the church mice.
You really think they gave a hoot?
Why would the church mice care about barns?
I know, You're a big dog and I'm on the list.

Anyone know a millionaire that shops on Temu?

Happy Valentine's day....last words to my first wife. Divorced was finalized Feb 14.
You missed their super bowl commercial? Website that has really cheap Chinese crap.
