Math, damn it.

While I am at it, the plural of shrimp is...

Not like English always makes sense, or that American English makes more sense than British English, but I think "math" works better than "maths". Mainly since it's an abbreviation of mathematics, so I don't see any reason to keep the "s" in.

Then again, we do say pants (I assume from pantaloons) so who am I to speak.

Disorientated makes me want to beat the hell out of a random brit until they're very disoriented.

I find the way they pronounce aluminum, basil, and oregano to be adorable, though.

I think we should all compromise and learn the proper Canadian English.

Math, not maths
Colour, not color.

Canada, New zealand, and Australia are all big offenders. I hate it when they say 'Eh' all the time also.
