Kstar,

You mention disgusting fans - you exhibit every characteristic of a disgusting fan, down to the cursing and name calling. UGGH - NO CLASS!

I certainly know how to spell; do you know what alliteration is? I was playfully using it in my last post. (quick, go look it up)

I did not go to Texas, my son does. My other son goes to Florida, hence my reason for rooting for the Gators. GO GATORS!!

You purport yourself to be a "O.U. sorority girl" in other posts on this board. I have to say I am shocked. I know some lovely young women who are in sororities at OU, and it alarms me to think you are representative of others that are up there.

MY WORD! The depths that some will go to put down others based on football rivalries. It certainly brings out the absolute worst in some.

Class is class, and those who don't exhibit it do not deserve continued conversation.

Actually, alliteration has to do with sounding alike, not being spelled with the same beginning consonant. For instance, freaky phone is alliteration, however, krazy kstar is just bad spelling.

You call me a disgusting fan, I say tu fans are the disgusting ones. Sure, in heated moments, such as 4 years ago, I've called names. No denying that, and no denying that it was rude. However, unlike most tu fans, I've never thrown things at opposing teams/fans, nor have I maliciously destroyed their property. Cursing and name calling might be crass, but in cooler moments, amended. Cursing and name calling doesn't make someone a disgusting fan; a heavily emotionally invested one, perhaps, but not a bad fan.

So I called someone a name 4 years ago, then apologized for it. Big whoop. I'm sure you've done worse.

If you are going to claim something, then at least make sure are correct first:

Alliteration is the repeated occurrence of the same consonant sound at the beginning of several words in the same phrase. A well-known example is the Mother Goose tongue-twister, "Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers …".

Read the quote again, it says sound. Not spelling.

Now read what I said: "Actually, alliteration has to do with sounding alike, not being spelled with the same beginning consonant."

While alliteration can be employed with words that have the same beginning letter (such as Crazy Coffee), they do not have to have the same beginning letter (such as Crazy Kim), nor do all words that share beginning letters have alliteration (such as Crazy Central).

She misspelled words with a K and claimed it was alliteration, and while it was, sound-wise, that still doesn't explain her misspellings.

I did read what you wrote, but I interpreted incorrectly. Sorry.
