Thats "faux pas" Anon....someone make sure we getta copy of Berlitz's French on tape too!
You mistake the false pronunciation of "foks-pax" to be the actual spelling of the phrase, when in fact it is just merely that, a false pronunciation.
Now I would like to share with you all what the mis-spelling of Faux Pas has done for me personally, and how it has served to help me address several issues within myself. First off, I realize that by rudely pointing out Anon's misspelling of the phrase, I am in my own way committing a "faux pas" in doing so. This has made it clear to me that had I remained silent about his blunder, I would have been able to remain objective and non-judgemental....but alas, now I am no better than he is in my rude and pointless blather about correct spelling. In the future I will take this instance into consideration and attempt to re-structure my reactions so as not to commit said "faux pas".
Now everybody in unison....LOVE YA FO PAAAA!!
Oh, and thats weiner, a whiner would be someone who drinks excessively....or is that a wino........
Man, its a long long Friday.....
