I have insisted ever since I was in primary school that everybody writes W like VV, not UU, so it should be double-V.
Everybody said I was talking nonsense. The entire fucking world is wrong, I am right. http://www.hipforums.com/forums/images/smilies/mad.gif

I'm really not sure how you spell it though, double-u? double u? How do you spell "u"? Why do some letters have proper spellings (eg. aitch, zed) but some not?

:D Exactly my thinking
One letter i always think in French
Although i write like the English...two u's put together, like a bum shape
My mum says that means im highly sexual
My mum says a lot of meaningless things. Im not, and certainly not about bums
What was this thread about again?
My head hurts

doubleyoo. works for me.
i used to write out my W as a UU. i didn't know it meant i was highly sexual. i just thought i was being cheeky.

I sometirnes write "m" as "rn", just for the sheer perversity of it - as in "have you heard the new alburn by the Beadles?" Oh, I also write Beatles as "Beadles"... Ah uuell:uhoh2:
