HI there. I'm just going to babble senselessly to anyone and hope someone answers. And I'll just keep doing it. Why not? Who cares?

    I do.  I care.  I also have to go to work.  I know this won't hinder your babble but it will my answering.
    Just know.  If I were here I would be giddy to babble back to your babble and we could be two babbling babes bounding and bouncing being giddy as we babbled.


    I've gotta run but have fun.  On my return I will be happy to babble with you.
       
    For some reason I now feel like a blundering, bouncing bowl of jell-o .

    Well...why aren't you babbling yet? Do you need a subject? How about that dome surrounding the flat earth?

    Are you dismissing coloqueals?   (sp?)  Say it isn't so, Randy.  Say it.  SAY IT.   I'm not sure colloqueals is a word even.  It keeps saying I misspelled it.  But won't correct it, because I am stubborn and shut that off.  So, I cannot spell a word I may have just invented.

    If you invent a word, you can't misspell it either.

    An excellent point and one I take advantage of when in my best interest.

    I like oughtta better.  It shows creativity and the willingness to accept language is ever changing.

    Tell Randy that is a colloquialism or however it is spelled.

    Yep, I did manage to spell it right below and then I see you concur as well. Thank you.  I am defending you.

    You did invent a new word!  A word with a smililar meaning as another word spelled colloquial but it is your very own  version. It makes much more sense to spell it your way than the old, colloquial way.  A word that is very familiar and used to be used in common conversation.  Today, you rarely hear it.  If we were to start using it again, it should be spelled your way. :) :)

    I know it is taxing to your colloquial ways.  I know it is giving you a severe headache to see what you might imagine as a catastrophe to the spelling and usage of such a colloquial word. 
    BUT, as gay as you are when you see it spelled an used the old fashioned way, you must admit to the ever-irritating and nail-biting changing of the English language.
    I do feel the newly introduced spelling and meaning needs to be considered and furthermore, applied to this immediate circumstance.
    You "Gotta" give it a chance, Boogie Woogie Randy!  The first step is always a doozy but you can do it!!  
    ;) ;)
