    I don't know where Randy is (other than clearly shirking his Grammar God  responsibilities ), but this is an abomination. 

    "Fidna" is some kind of illegitimate contraction of an already ridiculous expression. It's second only to "you'uns" in my book.

    This seems the most fitting emoticon. I don't want to catch your colloquialism.

    And I correct people when they saying fixin' to xxx.  That sounds downright intelligent in comparison.
