huzzah!

eat it suckers!

 

congrats man :thumbup:

 

All that schooling and you can't spell "paid"? I'd want my money back.

 

im not a shitty english major..im a science major.

 

whats wrong with payed?

 

payed == payed off a reel. like if you pull wire off a spool its "payed out." It's not useful, AFAIK, in terms of finacial reference...let me look.

10. Past tense and past participle paid or payed (pd) To let out (a line or cable) by slackening.

 

so there is nothing wrong with using payed in that statement....right?

 

no, the term "payed" is only to be used in instances of pulling wire from a spool, never in terms of financial reimbursement. welcome to the wonderful world of English, its a bunch of bullshit.

 

ah ok. i are understanding now.

 

since this is becoming an english thread....

worse and worst, which is the term that compares.

(too lazy to research)
