"It's ROGUE not ROUGE"

Context does matter. For instance, "She put rogue all over her face".

And rouges are overpowdered anyway.

Two mistakes I often encounter:
* compliment instead of complement,
* daylies instead of dailies.

Well, at least the first example has two correctly spelled words, even if they do have different meanings!

Never seen anyone use "daylies" though...

Still makes my right eye twitch though!

Check the World of Warcraft forums. :-P
The country that fought in World War I was called Russia, not Prussia. Oh, wait...

Paradoks: A funny fact - that's the proper way of saying it in Polish. It gets better with things like "Nobody hasn't heard nothing".
Same here. :-)
And it can go as far as "Nobody hasn't never heard nothing like that".

Now I want to see a game called "Rouge Rogue". It would be about a female thief who dresses all in red. =P

That's sexist!....isn't it? :P

Rouge is red in French, so if the game has a French theme, rouge will literally mean the color.
Many years ago I played World of Warcraft. The name I used when I played online poker was reklessone so my first guy was a gnome and I called him reklessgnome. Then I made a rogue and called her reklessrouge. Not many people noticed. It made me happy.

I don't know. I think red is very much an equal opportunity colour. Just look at Char, for example.

That was pretty much my point. :D Red is cool on dudes as well. I had Ezio wear dat bad ass red Brutus Armor. :D

The rouge vs rogue thing winds me up no end.

I generally get very bothered by people using the wrong homophone in idioms, e.g. reign it in, given free reign.

NO! Not reign - rein. Both come from horse riding, nothing to do with monarchy.

Oh, and 'Imma' as some sort of bizarre contraction of 'I'm going to'. Where the hell did that come from? (I'll tell you where - fuckwits, that's where...)
I'm seeing a endless stream of "did you found...", "did you died...", "did you helped..." lately. It's the new "would of" apparently.

Nails on a blackboard...
Hmmm.... i repeated the thought 'rouge' three times in my head and came up with this.. then expanded on it :P


Row Rouge Rogue your boat,
Genitals down with sheen,
Merrily Marrily Marally Married,
lie fit such a meme!
So why can't lipsticks have legacies? ;)

I've only seen that one "Imma gonna" so as "I'm" - which makes a bit more sense to me. Not saying I'd ever use that, but still :D
