    4) A large group of something is a horde. Example: A horde of enemies awaits in endurance nodes. To hoard is to gather/collect something compulsively. Example: I'm hoarding over 400 tokens right now. Get it right.

    However, you can, and may very well have a horde of tokens.

    Only if you hoard them.

    And if you rent your horde of hoarded tokens to others, the tokens are now whored.

    Only if you've rented them in exchange for certain... uhm... services. Otherwise, it's a legitimate business transaction.

    Shut up, Biggs.

    So here's another one for the list that just came across my desk: Say you have a hoard of 500 tokens. If you open them all at once, you are opening them en masse. Kinda like I just did at the end of the season! Again!

    Yep, when I see this ability I always picture Thor calling up Storm on his cell like "whats up." icon_e_wink.gif

    Call the storm? So...she's just an object now? You're willfully approving the objectification of women, you rampant sexist!
    This is a sarcastic post, please don't kill me.

    It's the opposite, a term of endearment, she's not Storm, she's THE Storm. She doesn't play around, don't mess with her icon_e_wink.gif

    But if we call it CtS we'll confuse it with Call the Squirrels, which is Squirrel Girl's secret power most of the forum doesn't know about (you need six covers in yellow to activate it).

    You only know because Jamie Madrox told you. He's got seven, though. That casts Call of the Squirrels, which is a lot more powerful.

    I wake crying at night remembering that awful squirrel's howl icon_e_surprised.gif
    And they said Black Bolts voice would hurt...

    This so much. When I read "should of", "could of" or "would of", I instantly stop reading the post. I hate that one with a passion.

    So is it Thor calling the storm and not the other way around? Now that makes sense.

    I couldn't care less about this thread. As opposed to saying "I could care less". Because then you actually do care!

    Get ready to have your mind blown. I am dis-happy by this. I still say it makes you sound like a mouth-breather.

    Yah, i saw when they made it a word.. that does not mean it is proper to use it. I put that word up there with the worst tinykitty word you can think of, and have the overwhelming urge to physically strike someone who says it.

    I exspecially hate ashphalt, but in the summer it gets so hot you can de-thaw your meat on it. I pacifically hate words that are a blend of two simular words, like flustrated, hugenormous or hugemongous.

    More words I despise when misused:
    oirentated (instead of oriented)
    "Organic" fruits and vegetables... it's all organic, they need a better term, like PF (pesticide free) NH (non-hormonal), etc.
    "Don't know nothing about that"... double negative... you are hiding something then?

    And contains the letter D. An is not a suitable replacement for And.

    Sorry, "orientated" is perfectly proper where I come from, it's "oriented" that sounds wrong.

    How about "loosing" instead of "losing"? Or "irregardless"?

    The company responsible for games like Street Fighter, Strider, Mega Man, Resident Evil, UN Squadron, Magic Sword, etc....

    A buddy of mine calls them Campcon. It drives me nuts. My coworker says things like "double verify" and "supposa-bly" instead of supposedly.
