Oh, and by the way...
you pussy of a water buffalo (comes from my Filipino friend), although unintentional, [link|http://thesaurus.reference.com/search?r=2&q=decern|http://thesaurus.ref...arch?r=2&q=decern]. I actually did look up the word because it looked wrongish on screen...
Hell, even a stopped clock is right twice a day (unless it is on military time, etc.)

If yer gonna Old English, do it right, dufus
The 'f'-looking s you're trying to misuse is supposed to be the hard-s, roughly equivalent to the s-zed in German (\ufffd) in usage (or mis-usage).
So "Ufed", is flat-assed wrong! "Ufage" is also wrong, because the hard-s is traditionally signalled at the end of a word (where ambiguities in the pronounciation of an ending ess is common in Teutonic languages). "Syftems" is a puzzlement, so we'll give you a pass (or pafs) on that...
But "Filefys"?!? C'mon, you illiterate flut! It's "filesyf"! Get it right!

That's not Old English, fuckwit.
This is Old English: This Pardoner hadde heer as yelow as wex, But smothe it heeng as dooth a strike of flex; By ounces henge his lokkes that he hadde, And therwith he his shuldres overspradde; But thynne it lay, by colpons oon and oon. Fucking ignorant colonial philistinic baboon.
