You guys really have to stop starting weeks on the wrong day.

[–] NaibofTabr 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You're right, Woden the All-father should be first.

Well, that would still not have the weekend at the end of the week, but at least there would be a reasonable explanation.

For me it’s always ‘bus-in-ess’

[–] PunnyName@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Busy-ness

Busi-ness

That's how I do it.

[–] Knusper@feddit.de 1 points 2 years ago

It's like "busy", but a noun.

Don't ask me why the y becomes an i and silent...
