you should probably take it with a grain of salt when someone uses a kiss emote after they call you an idiot, you idiot.  :-*

I'm not serious... If I were I'd be using science journals at this point to disprove that, since there have been many studies on that. That being said, I am sure that the good people at Cambridge who came up with that are ripping out their hair at people like you who take such a small part of their research and use it as a summary of their entire research.

Really... do you think that was all they had? You don't think they considered specialty words, complex words, and others that would take our brain time, or -gasp- actual effort to decode? Now that is just silly. It was a whole study on the nature of our brain. That just happened to get out because it was a small fun excerpt. It is not to be taken as absolute fact.

Cheers <3

PS: There is something to say about a person that takes everything said on the internet as true and/or serious  ;)  :-*

That is quite hilarious irony. I mean, the word is spelled correctly in the picture right under the subject line! Obviously whoever sent the e-mail wasn't paying attention.

I do agree that the Cambridge University research is fun to play with, though I'm sure there's a lot more to it that the public hasn't really grasped. What we do have is something fun to play with, though I'm not sure there's much of a practical application. Well, aside from kids using it to complain about not needing to spell properly. Personally, I'm no good at spelling, and if the research had come out when I was actually in school I probably would've jumped on it to prove to my teachers that spelling doesn't really count.
Then again, we're now in a time where a lot of people don't even use whole words in correspondence.... I've had quite the time of it trying to get my mom not use "aimspeak" when she sends me a text. I can't read the recent text-messaging jargon. It's like the high school girls' code in the episode with Goro-chan and Mouri-tantei.....the one Mouri spent all day trying to figure out, only to have Sonoko read it off for him in 2 seconds when the girls got home from school.
And I got completely off-topic and forgot what I was saying again...~_~* Sorry...
I have finally started to actually publish my story! For the moment, expect a new chapter each month.

The Case of the Midnight Channel
"When a strange letter summons the Mouri family to Inaba, Ran is expecting a case. She's not expecting it to involve the TV, though.
If Naoto investigated everyone who came to visit Inaba, she'd have little time for real cases. When Yukiko reports that the Midnight Channel is back, however, she starts to wonder if the visitors are connected. Especially when the image clears, unveiling yet another mystery."

Short version: I'm taking various DC/MK characters to Inaba (where Persona 4 takes place) and dropping them through the TV to face their Shadows!

I don't think that's a real word actually. In one of the english lessons, our teacher wrote on the board the longest word in english (which was known to her) and it was 26 letters (if I recall correctly) and that word was a disease of some sort. Unless this word is what I recall but then there is no way that my teacher could write it on the board

antidisestablishmentarianism is 28 letters, without even going into silly technical terms territory. If you want the longest technical word ever, according to wikipedia, it is...

189,819 letters long. Damn.
