Jeez, first we're talking about throwing a Wordie off Wordie, then stabbing another? Yeah, we should stick to talking about pumpkins.

Ahh. That explains it. Thanks for clarifying, seanahan!

I'm not sure I like pukkin at all. I do, however, like punkin.

I figured it would be disturbing if I said "stab proof", since I'm pretty sure that "stabby proof" has no semantic meaning, but I should make it clear my feelings were directed at PUMP! kin.

I like pukkin. :) I think we all understand that you were joking, but I much prefer when stabby is directed at the words themselves.

Umm... I do hope you're joking...?

I really like the word "stabby," but it's kind of creepy to read comments about stabbing people. Maybe it's coming off in a less amusing way than you intended...?

What you should be waiting to see, Jennarenn, is whether or not your shirt is stabby proof.

I allus liked the pronunciation pukkin!

Ah, pumpkin. I had that nickname as a child. It was pronounced PUMP! kin.





*waiting to see if Seanahan will add PUMP!kin* ;)
