  • The humorous writer Peter De Vries has his characters bludgeon probably into probly or prolly, and a few are content with the monosyllabic pry, which I had to test before being content that that is indeed how some people pronounce it: "He's pry not here now"; it works. —  VERBATIM: The Language Quarterly Vol VI No 4

  • 2003-12-26 - 6: 03 p.m. i didn't actually expect much for this xmas, but somehow it turned into one of the best ones for presents ever. so some highlights: my brother loved his present; i got him the collector's dvd box set of indiana jones. i'm happy b/c i never know what to get him and i can never tell if my gifts actually get used or just sit on a bookshelf or something. but not this time, oh no! my parents gave me a sweet little tv, it's real pretty but not as aerodynamic as amber's; if it were to fly through the air it prolly wouldn't get as far as hers. they also gave me a swiss army knife which is totally great because the wicked airport people took my old one. —  sneezers Diary Entry
