People compliment me on my sense of humor often, but I fail to see this joke.

I hate dry jokes! The British never struck me like having a sense of humor. French ones are worse. They make me cry.
THE END :) Really? :-s
Anyways, that wasn't a joke. Jokes are not the only funny generators... Try disbelief: "Are you really ending the tutorial? That's funny! What's next?" :D

The british have "humour", which is different from "humor" :D!


NB: This is the general way of describing how British humour differs from American humour - that they're two different things. See Uncyclopedia on "humour".

Man, the English language is screwed up enough, you don't have to go adding extra u's in there!

Easier to write/talk/etc
idk, I guess we all et used to it, but I think the humor is more phonetically correct......or is spelled more like it sounds.

Not how I'd pronounce it. The 'u' gives the end of the word a more "uh" sound, as opposed to the "or" sound.

Personal preference I guess, but we invented the language!! :twisted:

Right, and English went from retarded to bullshit.

Seriously, I actually speak in literal translations of other languages sometimes, and it actually makes more sense.

The difference between "humor" and "humour" is like the difference between

Code: Select all

if(1){
    //do something
}
and

Code: Select all

if(1)
{
    //do something
}
It's a matter of personal preference and/or what we were taught.

That being said... I have to agree with piranha, "humor" is the way to go. :)
