"For all intensive purposes..."

Didn't read thru 16 pages so this might have come up, but what's up with people adding an "h" to their "s" sounds. Street should sound like it's written, not "shtreet." Or how about "frushtrated" or "queshtion" or "shtrike." This is so common nowadays, but is incredibly annoying.
 
To the person who stole my Windows Office---I will find you--you have my Word...

I work in IT, and I get people asking about 'the Microsoft' when they're buying a new Mac. I ask if they need Word, Powerpoint and Excel, but they say, "No, I need the Microsoft." "Okay," I say, "You want to run Windows on your Mac? Okay, we can do that."

We get Parallels installed, then a day later they come back and say "Hey, I thought you guys were going to install the Microsoft?!"
"Yeah, we did, it's right here. See, Parallels, and it's running Windows. Cool, eh?"
"Yeah, but how do I type a letter?"
Womp wommmmmp.

The whole thing started in Germany at a store called 'Fraulein Tents & Porpoises'..

Are you a paisa'?

No, I am not a monetary unit of India, Nepal, (or formerly of Pakistan)!


Paisa more commonly refers to another heritage that is not Italian.

If you mean am I a Paisan (which rarely can also refer to the above heritage), here on the interneb, we can claim to be anyone or anything!
