noob.

If you came up to me and told me you shat a gun, I'd probably think you were gay.

Well we could make it a verb, but just like the past tense of the verb shoot is shot so would the past tense version of the verb screenshoot be screenshot.

Example:

One must aim carefully to shoot a hummingbird.

I aimed carefully and shot the hummingbird.

Timmy is way too eager to screenshoot that image.

Timmy's monitor had strange goo on it after he screenshot that image.

Only worthwhile post in the thread.

Poll: do you agree?




methinks you confused the word shot and shit...

shot is the past tense of shoot...
shat is the past tense of shit...

It's ok, people make up words everyday. The only thing keeping them out of the dictionary is the general acceptance of the majority.

So basically in a couple of years our language will be degraded down to: "piss lat teh fo dah!!"
