Went the hell did this crap start of using a z to denote a plural??  Am I the only one that is confused by this stupid practice??  Is it a youth thing??  Either way, it's stupid---get with the program and spell your words right.

This isn't ebonics people!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not sure, but it might be derived from that stupid hacker speak.

Didn't get your coffee this morning, Eh Sarge?

Its a McUzi holdover that the guys are using to sound like neanderthals.

Look at it this way, at least they aren't fooling anybody about their IQ.

I thought it was "wimmenz".

Have Goatboy add the correct spelling to the
board "Rules of Conduct", please.

Actually, it's women.  No z, no s, women is the plural of woman.  I really do not care how it gets said, I do not hang out with folks that talk like that and, other than educational programing or classic movies, I hardly ever waste a minute in front of the TV.

When you use "ya", do you really mean "yes"?

[:D]

We'll have Goatboy add that to the rules also.

Not too long ago, I read an article about why mothers often add the suffix -zie to words when talking to babies.  Maybe, the people adding these z's just miss their mommies.z

Imbroglio started that quite some time ago. It has become somewhat of a common slang here at AR15.com.

ohmigosh (is running all the word together allowed?)  of all the crazy and silly things to get your panties in a bunch about.

i guess you wouldn't be happy to know that i suggested a while back in chat that we change the "Women Shooters" forum to "Womenz Forum".  and AR15-gal thought it was a neat idea too.  i actually like the word.  it's almost become a term of endearment.  let's put it this way.  "womenz" and "bitch" are hardly ever used together in the same sentence so it can't be all that bad.

i suppose the fact that i never capitalize anything really botherz you too, doezn't it?  [;D]
