Blood Wine brought up LGBT regions being tagged and you mentioned saving money on stamps. So, yeah, your statement that y'all never bring it up can be disproved right here on this page.

Perhaps the word "diary" is slightly different in American English. The statement makes perfect sense to me.

That page you linked notes that it's in UK English. "Schedule" is the term in American English that fits what you were going for the best.

Port Blood was discussing LGBT regions being telegrammed. You replied with a snarky response bringing up money. In that conversation, you brought up money first. This is not difficult to understand.

You've got to be fucking kidding me. You can't honestly expect everyone else to use the exact same dialect as you on an online forum?
I'd really like to use some more colourful (oh, wait, colorful - better spell it that way so you don't get confused) language here, but I don't think the mods would appreciate it.

So clearly you haven't actually read the posts that you're responding to.
I'm using British English. The people who (apparently) didn't understand speak American English.
Want to actually read the topic, then try again?
