it's great but not as great as my cat :D which I am calling 'crumple nut' for some reason!!!
The robo dog should be called 'Tiburian 6' :D

I don't think so Sikma, I think its an awesome robo-dog from an advanced research institute. They sometimes photoshop a bit of cardboard effect on so the competition can't bite the design.

buftie dog, with nae pips.

No, to me, his user name is a proper noun. Therefore, you don't change it when making it plural. You just add either an "s" or an "es", depending.

... wait though Jaline, a wooky is a wooky, but wookies are... wookies.
Fkn Star Wars again. I hate Star Wars.
Reverse engineer that into the hallowed Jaline's Bible of grammatically correct English whydontcha.
- Jaline0
Yes, but isn't a wooky a race or group of creatures? (I have no idea about this issue, by the way).
Therefore, they are not just one person or family or place (proper name).
- Jaline0
I can't believe I am talkingn about this, but I just looked it up:
Wookiee
therefore the plural is Wookiees

Okay, I think you may possibly be right. Just 'possibly' though, I haven't completely made up my mind up, mind, made... up, about it, just yet.
You have to appreciate that its not particulary pleasant, having my own God-given native language so rudely corrected by someone who is essentially from Canadia. But, I'll fax your enquiry over to UKHQ and see if we can get this whole nasty mess of yours cleared up Jaline.
- shouldn't you fax it to endor? great now i sound like a star wars geek7point34

Nouns in y.
Final y not immediately preceded by a vowel is changed into ies: lady, ladies. .
But when a vowel immediately precedes, the y remains unchanged: boy, boys; day, days; chimney, chimneys; attorney, attorneys. Nouns ending in -quy take ies: soliloquy, soliloquies. Proper names in y do not usually change the y: the three Marys (but also Maries). So also guy makes guys.
Obs. Such spellings as chimnies, attornies, although frequently used, are accordingly to be avoided
