What on Earth is ISHOO?

[solo]

This just winds me up.

oooh, sounds like you have pedantry ishoos

Ishoo

ishoo

ishoo

I agree. It's not even funny. Or is it and I'm just not getting it?

You are being very norty complaining about ishoos!

I don't get it either squeaver.
Norty? NORTY? Ha!
Do people genuinely think issue is written that way? Maybe it's because some pronounce it that way and some pronounce it with a ssss sound? Do those that say/spell ishoo also say tishoo?
English is such a beautiful language, why is it being changed by some?

I can almost feel the missiles wending their way toward me!

Hijack alert! Solo, did you find that strawberry tiramisu recipe? I'm having people for dinner on Sat, and I'd love to try it out.

MrsMuddle, I'll do it now! ...
WARNING! you'll like it!*

ll - quite!

Ishoo is used, obviously, by those who feel slightly precious about using 'issue' - as if they're trotting-out a well-worn cliche. They want you to know they know it's a precious, up-oneself, pretentious, 21st-century psychobabbly cliche.

There's a wealth of hidden meaning and weight lurking underneath what you might think is a merely lazy, text-speaky mis-spelling.

tishoo? Or is it like 'yoof'?

What dreyfus said.

It's the hidden meaning tongue in cheek use. Like norty or blardy.

I like it.

like farking norks

only not necessarily together

...well, I can't be norty, I have ishoos wiv tishoos and as 4 yoofs, wel! it's jus rong!

I've now broken out in hives!

Yes, ishoos means "what I would, were I terribly American and earnest and psychobabbly about it, call issues".

's when yoove got ishoo wiv sumwon init?
hun.

What Dreyfus said.

Subtext: "I know I sound like that twat Jeremy Kyle with the misfits on his programme, but let me go right ahead and say it anyway..."

Sumwon or sumfing, anyways.

Surely not sumfing? shouldn't it be sumfin?

MrsMuddle recipe is on recipes, but is for MrsMattie by mistake!

I got it. Thank you very much.

I got it. Thank you very much.
