I swear to god, every time I come across having to spell this word, I spell it differently. I'm not even sure which is correct in what context or if there even is a difference.

Am I alone on this?

i always spell it with an "e". I think "gray" looks too much like "gary" which is a name usually given to sleazy characters on sitcoms. But "grey" looks like its own word...its more powerful

Another mod quote possibility.

And it's "gray."

Unless you're a weirdo.

It just depends on if you want to write like a man or a fag.

The tea that I enjoy is Earl Grey. Once that shit is made here and if it is still called Earl Grey. I will not drink it. No fucking Way. If it is made here, it must be Earl Gray!


Until that time I will continue to enjoy my Earl Grey.

Gray is for the color.
Grey is for uncertainty.

Mixing them up is not to be permitted.

Is it what you meant to type? Or is what you typed is what you meant to type?


Usually when I type something it is what I mean to type (at the moment). Many times my moments fail me. Or do I fail my moments???

Gray - if I am writing to normal people

If those are your rules, may I suggest the following:

Gray: when writing to Gvac.
Grey: when writing to Epo.
