You replaced it with "ill concieved." That's "conceived" (i before e except after c) and since it's being used as an adjective you need to hyphenate. What are you, retarded?

Thanks. I know most of us grew up hearing the words "lame" and "retarded" so much it's easy to forget what they even meant originally.

No marshmallows when you die either.

Oh, um, I'm sorry if I wasn't clear - I wasn't referring to myself as someone who has suicidal thoughts - I'm actually quite intent on staying alive. Far as I know, there's no scotch, music or making out when you're dead. :P However, I've known people in my life who have felt like that. I'm writing from that perspective. If that wasn't clear, sorry. I edited to remove the word and replace it with something clearler and less needlessly cruel.

Well, I would hate to make some comment that could, you know, drive you over the edge, these blogs being so dangerous. I feel like my keyboard is a deadly weapon. So you know, if you ever feel down or anything, just talk to someone. We're all here for you.

Hmmm? Concerned for what? Also, duly noted. No offense meant to people with down syndrome. Perhaps I'll use "stupid," "mindless" or some other word in the future.

I would ask you not to use the word "retarded" anymore, but I am concerned about you. Any time you need to talk, I'm here for you, buddy.
