Well, not really. I wish I were paid!
My point is that I see nearly everyone using the term/spelling "payed" which got me to thinking a bit about it.
You see, I was taught and have always used the term "paid" which I believe is the current correct spelling.
It seems that the "payed" spelling has become quite prevalent on the internet though. I wonder if the dictionary spelling will eventually be changed to reflect this common usage?

Don't start thinking they'll eventually start appearing above cats in real life as well. Quote:

Some of those other postings - LOL!
I wish that there was good laughing emoticon available.
