Pumas vs All Blacks

@mokey both my kids are always like 'Dad they spelled our name wrong'...'get used to it kids, happened to me all my life'

I dont get wound up, but is annoying given there are a few ways to spell it, they always assume the wrong way.

Whats worse is TR Jnr and his cousin were in the school production a month ago, they spelled her surname (the same surname) right and his wrong haha

@sammyc did you add something to your deleted post or is @mokey a mod and fucking with you?

Didn’t add anything, someone is being a bit sensitive.

[Bones]

@sammyc hah, you mildly replied to a post telling you to go fuck yourself 🤨

Can’t stand piston wristed gibbons who get all angry when you misspell their name. Get over yourself

Even worse are those who get angry about people misspelling others names.

piston wristed gibbons? Fuck is it hard when you actually spell it for them?

I hate lazy piston wristed gibbons who are too arrogant to listen and get indignant when you tell they've got it wrong.

And I endorse @Mokey 's post and add my name to the list.

@sammyc some people might see that as an insult, but thank you sir.

@mokey fuck yeah! I have a 5 letter surname, really easy and gets spelt incorrect all the time. Plus adding an S to the end when I've never spelt nor said it with an S. What the fuck?

Edit: or do I mean spelled?

I think both are acceptable

Booboo accepts it both ways. Like your style fella.

Feel for you mate, people can't spell "Bones", I mean shit, more evidence that education is failing... I bet there's some dullards out there that can't even separate the internet from real life!

I wasn't sure about that one a while back, and according to google @booboo is correct, you can indeed swing either way.

[Bones]

@snowy you know me too well.

My ancestors who emigrated from desert land to fucking Mosgiel even changed the name to make it easy. Although most likely because it just sounded like angry swearing.

So is your name Bone or do people call you Boness?

@mokey @taniwharugby winds me up no end when fucking idiots spell your name wrong when replying to an email with both your name in the header and also in the bloody signature.

Plain ignorant and unprofessional.

Hah. My bosses just got a new boss. He emails boss Hannah to introduce himself and addresses her as Heather in the email. Are you fucking kidding me? Way to immediately expel any trust in your professionalism and integrity.

@kirwan or just watch...

Not with sky's prices

[No Quarter]

My wife has a double barreled first name and it's amazing how few people know what a "hyphen" is when she tries to spell it out.

[sparky]

I'm looking forward to seeing Frizzell get another shot at 6 for the All Blacks. His strength as a ball-carrier can break up tight defences. Not too many players like that around at the moment.

I'd pick a back three of Ioane, Naholo and BFA. Try to trouble the Pumas with pace.

I sympathise. Youngest daughter's middle name is Ngaire. The number of times I've been told by English people "what a lovely name, but why have you spelt it wrong? shouldn't it be "Nyree"? "

'tards.

Now you know what the famous AB wing Julian Surveyor feels like

[Hooroo]

Good rugby thread! Nah it really is!

I don't care when my name is spelt incorrectly but what bemuses me a bit is when they see it come up in an email for the first time and still spell it wrong.

That is what you get when you are a Robin though
