Be Excellent To Each Other

I don't see how or why.


Yes, popping up to make sure that you got your kicking in was certainly taking the moral high ground. Well done.

I give up trying
To make people smile at my
Rubbish Poetry

Carry on Mimi, your poetry is simply divine.

Mimi is a ver
ry good happy haiku po
et but I am not

In fact I'd go as far as to say
you're not
very good at all (neither am I it seems)

Myp is a big tit
and owns a right big pair too.
They are very soft.

I stand corrected
You are better than I thought
Well done, Mr Chris

I like mimi's poems,
she's quite a cheerful lady,
and has a monkey too!

Doesn't quite work as a haiku, but nice try.

Monkeys are doing
evil to the townspersons.
Mimi monkey don?

I like SteNorDar's
Poem with monkey, despite
Not fitting meter

Monkey Don orders
Death only by shooting with
A banana gun

I fail at haiku, and also at having a username that can be put in haiku without shortening...

Ah well, at least this thread is excellent

hello everyone
steonordar is my name
I hope you are well

I never, ever noticed that 'O' in your user name before you said 'without shortening' before now. Never, ever.

Never ever ever.

fuck off you can say
steonordar within a
haiku poem you cunt

Runcle cannot count.
Six syllables you will find
in that final line.

you always spell my
name incorrectly, you know
'davydd', is correct.

i say poem as one sillybill

Maximum banananananas to everyone :-)

edit-Mimi, is "poem" one or two syllables? It's one of those weird inbetweeny words...

It's two. 'Po-im'.

Anyone who disagrees is nor but a Southern nancy.

There is a particular term for words that stretch, but don't actually have two full syllables isn't there? As for nancy, you're the one with the eyeliner...

how man, northern boys have to have caveman-esque dialect knowledge so one sillybill is way too many for poem in the first place.

I cannot spel to
Save my live. Get a normel
Name pleese Davyyd Grim.

(I do always spell it with two 'y's, don't I?

I know, because I look at your name and think to myself that I must get it right because I don't like mis-spelling names as some people get offended, but I always see two 'y's there. When I had surgery to remove some fluid from my brain (don't ask) I had to have LOADS of tests, and I have a type of hearing dyslexia, converting the sounds I hear into words I understand, which I rarely tell people because they laugh, but other silly things I am useless at, too. I don't know, but there are words that I can look at a thousand times and see spelled the same way each time, even though that same way is always wrong. I often cut and paste names because of this.

I pronounce 'poem' as two very distinct syllables, but I have done a lot of stage work and do tend to break words down further than many others.

Also, 'ev-er-y-thing' (4)
And 'ac-tu-al-ly' (4) where as a lot of people would probably pronounce those with three syllables each (well, my family would, anyway.)

ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh
ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh
ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh.

I don't really mind misspellins*, it's when people call me 'davvid' I get angry. You know, mispronounciation. I'm not offended, I just saw an opportunity to practice my mad hiiiikooooo skillz, yo', and ran with it.


*hahahahahahahahaaa!

How do you pronounce it, Davydd?

I think I would read from the spelling that it was dav (to rhyme with 'lav' (lavatory)) and ydd to rhyme with 'syd'.

Is the more common pronunciation of David (as in '& Goliath')?

Yup, just 'day-vid'.

That's my name.

That name again...

I had it into my head that you were from Wales and it was pronounced like the charactor from Little Britain.








*runs

Well I knew he wasn't Welsh, but I still thought that's how his name was pronounced.

Grimm, however, is pronounced in an incredibly amusing and unexpected fashion, that I couldn't possibly share in public.

It cannot be pronounced, lest the balance of the Universe is destroyed.

Davydd 'TETRAGRAMMATON' Grimm, that's his name...

Bingo, if you're going to take a Welsh name, then you really should expect to have it pronounced as the Welsh would.
Else the Welsh would get annoyed, and you wouldn't want that.

(Edit: I know about these things, my middle name was chosen for its inherant welshness. Due to having close welsh ancestry)

The Welsh name has an 'f' in it.

Sometimes.

I find 'Davydd' to be somewhat rarer.

Oh, no doubt. But it does exist.

I know, I've been having a conversation with someone in Australia called Davydd who appeared in the similar videos after my growly Youtubery. The conversation is along the lines of 'It's not just me!'

Now undressed for sleep
Mimi turns off her MacBook
Wishing you goodnight

Davydd would certainly be pronounced like the LB character by everyone Welsh I know, and I went to uni in Aberystwyth.

Not to say that's how you pronounce it, but without meeting you it's certainly how I would, and did when talking with my clique tonight.

"Poem" is two syllables, and I'm the southernest southerner that ever southed. I've only heard it said as otherwise by Merkins. However, this may be a mere statistical anomaly.

I am also southern (well, home counties) and it's clearly Po-em.

exactly im northern and its one syllable, davydd is just strange he says hes northern yet his name is welsh and welshland is pretty darn south.

Davydd is from Cumbria, which is almost as north as dirty foreign scotland! He just has a strange name...

Why not?



I would if I could...

Malc

Ask a Northern Irish person to pronounce Poem. I'm not going to try to spell it, but it sounds excellent.

Yeah, even I would

I am also from 'the south' with my strange double syllabled pronunciation of 'po-em', but Craig's from the north and pronounces it with two syllables, too.

Po-em reprezentin'

Hold on, I have one of those around here somewhere...

NI chap - "Powerm" ish.

Doesn't everyone pronounce it with two syllabllbllblles, except people who don't speak English?
