Doughnut VS Donut

Dizzy · 11-12-2010, 08:26 PM

It's interchangeable for me.

Redshirt · 11-12-2010, 08:34 PM

Donut

I hate words with silent letters, it makes them even harder to remember how to spell them.

I spell it "Unnecessary calories and trans fats." -CSM

Vgfian · 11-12-2010, 11:20 PM

Usually I spell it donut, but either way is fine by me. :/

Robotazy · 11-12-2010, 11:33 PM

I call it a Deauxnut.

Doughnut. I don't have much patience for crappy "simplified" spelling.

***CaptHayfever*** · 11-13-2010, 12:21 AM

Depends on how educated the character saying it is.

I rarely write the word, & when you say it aloud, people don't care how you spell it.
...Well, most people.

CSM, are you gonna do that every time anyone here mentions do(ugh)nuts?

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

**Valigarmander** · 11-13-2010, 08:10 AM

Doughnut has three more letters than donut.

It's too hard to spell out.

Luigiman7 · 11-13-2010, 08:23 AM

I'm calling it a deauxnut from now on. THANKS TAZY

***Cosmonautical*** · 11-13-2010, 09:26 AM

also, I am apparently Jerry Seinfeld now

MeowMan · 11-13-2010, 09:46 AM

Interchangable.

***Ace Mercury*** · 11-13-2010, 11:42 AM

I use doughnut because it's the longer word and therefore makes me vis-a-vis smarter a priori ad argumentum.

FlipSwitch · 11-13-2010, 05:08 PM

DONUTS! I call them DONUTS!

***Ace Mercury*** · 11-13-2010, 06:05 PM

People must hate you when you're ordering a dozen of 'em.

"I'd like a chocolate DONUT, a Boston creme DONUT, two DONUTS with sprinkles, a bear claw, and eight double chocolate DONUTS!!!!!"

***CaptHayfever*** · 11-14-2010, 01:06 AM

You got any glazed DONUTS!?
Naw, we're out of glazed DONUTS!
You got any jelly DONUTS!?
Naw, we're out of jelly DONUTS!
You got any Bavarian creme-filled DONUTS!?
Naw, we're out of Bavarian creme-filled DONUTS!
You got any cinnamon rolls!?
Naw, we're out of cinnamon rolls!
You got any apple fritters!?
Naw, we're out of apple fritters!
You got any bear claws!?
...Wait a minute; I'll go check.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, numbeNAW, WE'RE OUT OF BEAR CLAWS!"
