I'm a Brit, we use pled. p.s. I'm really hoping that fucker Farage is going to be caught up in all this, any idea of the chances?

My worries about Farage are not criminal exposure but willingness of a May govt to open that can-of-her-own-illegitimacy-worms.

Oy, you aren't wrong, as usual it seems. Thank you.

‘Pleaded’ sounds awkward, like a made up word. I’ve always used ‘pled’..and will continue.

They are still opposed to "alright," which means I will cling to them until I die (probably in armed combat against those who use "different than" and think "begs the question" means "points to a related question.") Say "doesn't jive" and I will pour mercury on your wheaties.

Using pleaded in place of pled simply doesn’t jive with my preferred way of utilizing the English language, alright?

I thought the word was he “plead guilty,” y’know rhymes w I “read” that book last night. Same spelling, and you need the pronunciation to explain the rest. That’s how my brain spells what I heard.

Just heard Preet say “pled.” Hopefully, that’ll be enough. (Of course, then we have to change how to use “hopefully”)
