Subtle is still the dumbest word when it comes to spelling. I don't know why there is a "B" in there.

Lots of words lose sounds over time. Example: knight, knife. The K wasn't always silent. This isn't English-exclusive, and spelling always lags behind pronunciation.

Yes, but all the other ones I have been able to reconcile in my 'Merica mind with the exception of subtle. The B just looks wrong in so many ways.


The english alphabet 100 years ago used to be extremely different from the present alphabet.

The sound that "kn" denoted would be vastly different from the sound that "n" or "k" alone were supposed to. Gradually the language just shoved all these sounds into existing letters, so nowadays you either have these weird legacy spellings, or you have words with completely ambiguous pronunciation based only on the lettering.

Worst of both worlds, really.

100 years ago was the First World War.

You realize that, right?

Yeah that sounds like an interesting fact I would've heard before. 100 years really isn't that much in the grand scheme of things.

the gd studio is steaming

Currently some non-Darude tunes and a break screen. It's the best programming I've ever watched.

PPD is literally playing with someone who's autoattacking right now. It's making him very angry.
