UPD

I will continue to call it a "memory stick" then as I don't think they use anything *but* USB as the connection method, certainly not in common use so that can be taken as read.

It's like when politicians desperately implore everyone: "Let's draw a line under this."

No chance!

TLSTYPITFROYH's don't grow on trees so it's not really a stick is it?

That's as bad as calling it a pen when it does not write.

A stick of rock also does not grow on trees. What should we now call them?

 

[Deleted member 473]

Metaphors certainly seem to grow on trees.

Meatforus grow better on grassland.

Meatforus GROWS better on grassland.

Not chicken meat though. Grass isn't nutritious enough for domestic hens.

Cows grows better on grassland ???

I don't think so.

 

[Trev]

I agree, but Cow grows better on grassland seems OK to me. Cows grow. Meat grows (as you can't say 'a meat' unless it's being used as an adjective as in 'a meat sandwich' )

 

[gomezz]

As it is a made up word I choose to define it as a plural.

 

[Trev]

Well, that's all right then. I give in.

This is my favourite:

It involves no police departments, disomy or pens.

So I've had a UPD in my living room all this time and I didn't know it! (No really this has been in my living room for years)

BH : My immediate reaction was surely there is a more common word to describe the same thing

Where on earth are the last three posts going? I think that I'll store them for posterity on a handy UPD that I just happen to have lying around
