The spelling is correctly used. No (sic) should be used for any reason. What would matter is the pronunciation.
puhs-ee v poo s-ee If transcribed from the oral a (sic) would indicate a secondary copy from the original transcription where the copyist is unfamiliar with the usage or has a dirty mind. No usage or spelling error on the part of the originator thus no (sic) should be used. Edited by AZPaul3, : No reason given. Edited by AZPaul3, : No reason given.

he adjectival form of 'pus' and the slang for female genitalia (or a cat) would be pronounced identically where I'm from. That's kus yor a forinner. In the following there are little blue symbols like a speaker. Hit them and hear the difference between 1 and 2.
Here. But it's OK to pronounce them the same if that's your social norm. Kinda like pussy poop in a cat box and an English poop in the Vatican. Edited by AZPaul3, : No reason given.

Oh, my. I had never seen the Haka before. I would love to see an NFL team here in The States perform a ritual like that before kickoff. Can you imagine the outrage? Even Kaepernick would get to his feet.

Who's Kaepernick? Colin Kaepernick is a much tattooed back-up quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers, an football team (real football - not that fakey football the rest of the world plays where you run up and down the field for 90 mins. trying to not score and, for the most part, succeeding). He started protesting the killing of innocent unarmed black folk by police in this country, something that seems to occur with unusual frequency, by not standing during the playing of our National Anthem at the start of each game. He kneels on one knee instead. His protest is spreading across the nation and the patriotic sensibilities of a lot of folks are feeling butthurt. But, he is a religious man and the Haka being obviously evil devil-dancing in the very face of god's america I think would surely bring him to his feet in disgust.

something that seems to occur with unusual frequency I have read that may not be true statistically. It would be interesting to see it more carefully analyzed. You may be right, Ned, but unfortunately, our society isn't influenced as much by statistics as it is by perception. And that's a media creation.

When I was in school I was in a paddle contest and did just under 100 paddles. I lost to a guy who did just over 40 on a technicality. He did his all in a row.

Oh my god! My dryer is telling WalMart what size jeans I wear?
If I dry a smaller size pants will it also let Pizza Hut know so to fool them into e-mailing me some discount pizza coupons?

And most also understand the simply precautions that should be taken. That explains the tin foil hats on my friend's toaster oven and vacuum cleaner.

Wait! Are you telling us you actually buy your storms? And then pay for the cleanup afterwards? Wow! That is craziest thing I ever heard.
And you folks think Americans are dumb? Uhh ... don't answer that!

Faith may have several screws loose when it comes to opinions on science, religion, life, the universe and most everything else but the woman is not stupid. If she needed a blood transfusion I doubt she would inquire into the donor's orientation.
And if anyone ever did I would hope the doctor would answer "prone".Eschew obfuscation. Habituate elucidation.

But they don't use real bone do they? No. It is all artificial. But metal and plastic are not of the same kind and could constitute sin when they rub themselves together like that.Eschew obfuscation. Habituate elucidation.
