The correct spelling is D-I-S-C-R-E-E-T, not discrete. Discrete means "separate or distinct", while discreet means "showing self-restraint".

The grammar police will quietly go home and read her thesaurus now before anyone throws old shoes or bricks at her.
No old shoes from me!

My pledge mother was continually telling us that "The D in ADPi stands for discretion!" Spelling it properly makes it even more discreet!
