    I haven't seen Chapper (or Chapster, as he's known on the grid) since it went down big style on Wendall Street. El Capitan wanted to flood the market with heavy G, stripes and vits but Chapster had already cornered the grid with A-Class biznuts.

    He's a bit of a mess to be honest, doubt he'll have the mental strength to continue.

    If you read about a sad, fat, lonely dwarf killing himself in the news over the next week or so you'll know who it was <ok>

    I've probably not helped the situation by pulling him up on his grammar. I wouldn't wish such poor mental health on anyone, but if what you are saying is true, the world is better off with one less nonce.

    A historic is more common in both American and British English, but both usages are sufficiently common to be considered correct. A well known grammar rule says that we should use an before vowel sounds; for example, an accident, an item, an hour. We use a otherwise: a book, a hotel, a university.

    "An hotel" annoys the **** out of me. But am easily annoyed. Luckily, "a hotel" is equally correct.

    I do believe you have the brains of a shadow.

    What you've posted above actually proves you to be wrong. Just because it is common, doesn't make it correct. You'd never say, "I live in an house," so why would you use an for historic? People who perpetuate that nonsense 'rule' need to be thrown from a moving train.

    "an historic" is actually perfectly acceptable. Gambol just had an historic win.

    You don't accept 'an hotel', but you do accept 'an historic', yet both hotel and historic start with the same letter and vowel sound.

    You are an horrible oik.
