It's fazed not phased

[WinkyWinkola]

isn't it?

It's annoying to see it wrong so often.

[Marina]

Yes it is!

[Twiglett]

depends whether you're talking about being bothered or a project that is done in phases really

[fryalot]

it depends.

If you are a bit wobbly then you may be fazed

But if you had got rid of something gradually, you would have phased it out...

[MadBadandDangeroustoKnow]

Like wot squonk sed.

[Threadwormm]

But note that if you are wobbly because of having been attacked by the weapon of a Star Trek crew member, you are phased.

[SaintGeorge]

Struck down by a nasty food poisoning bug, you could well be phaged.

[Twiglett]

hang on .. .I say it, Squonks repeats what I said and you say "Like what Squonk says"



I'm outphraged

[fryalot]

you've either got it, or you haven't, o light party snacky one

[MadBadandDangeroustoKnow]

Profuse apologies, Twiglett. Am new to pedants' corner so please be merciful. It was squonk's thread wot I could see as I typed my post. You did indeed say it first.

[Piffle]

I detest, loathe and actively rage when phased is used instead of fazed.
Possibly heads my top ten pet pedantic peeves.
