Sisko

Post by **Darth Wong** » 2002-11-26 09:02pm

When the name "Sisko" goes into my spell-checker, it says it's not a word (naturally), and like most spell-checkers, it offers suggestions. So what does it think "Sisko" should be replaced with? "Sicko".

I just thought that was too funny to keep to myself.

EDIT: just FYI, it's the spell-checker built into OpenOffice 1.0

Not sure, I think it's actually Sick'o.
Whatever that means (I think in english you could pretty much add an 'o at the end of any adjective?)

I could be wrong. After all, I'm just guessing.

Oh wait unless it's a bastardization of "psycho".

StarOffice 5.2's spell chuck gives 'Picardy' and 'piracy' for Picard, 'sissy' and 'Sask' for Sisko and 'January' for Janeway.

The latter replacement is rather appropriate considering Janeway's personality and the normal temperatures in January in this part of the world....

Haven't you people ever heard sicko used before? I hear it used heaps in Australia:

"he's a fucking sicko pervert"

etc

Odd. Here we use it as a noun. As in fucking sicko.

same thing happened with my computer. I was using MicrosoftOffice XP, and when i put in Sisko, it said 'suggestions for word: Sicko, Physco(don't know why)'
Damn funny.
Seems as if Sisko's name is cursed.

And yet Chewbacca is recognised perfectly by my spell checker. Hmm, is the writting on the wall for Star Trek?

Post by **Vympel** » 2002-11-28 12:02pm

Don't you love it how word knows that fuck is a word but if you mispell it it won't come up as an option.
