Man, I've tried saying "comfortable" several times, and I always get 4 syllables. Sorry.

Suppose your lyric has "comfortable" and you want it to be sung in the common way on three syllables, how would you spell/ hyphenate that?


com-forta-ble. Similarly with "Wednes-day" and so on. I see no need to introduce apostrophes into words that don't have them, since the desired pronunciation is immediately obvious from the context.

Of all hoaxes, the one which is my most vexing bĂȘte noire on a quotidian basis, is the cereal box top which informs simply, "Lift Tab to Open." Then, "To Close, Insert Tab Here ." Yeah, right! In attempting to accomplish the first direction, not only the tab but also the slit intended to accept the aforementioned protuberance have both been irreparably disfigured and rendered dysfunctional. This debacle is then amplified by the misbehavior of the recalcitrant inner bag, which can not be unsealed sans mangling it, and hence, will not disperse its contents without exiting the box itself. All I wanted was a bowl of cereal.
