Deepest apologies

Ok, so I called my CAMARO a cammy yesterday to save time; I don't realize this was so bad. Apologies to anyone whoever has and now owns a Camaro. Apparently I'm a weak link and a failure to a long line of enthusiasts or elitists. I'm still not sure yet...

I accept your apology. Thank you.

And please don't name your Camaro, either. Thanks again.

I believe you can call your call whatever you want - if you let people influence you decisions on an internet forum you have more problems than just using something slang to refer to your car. Political Correctness is out of control people I tell you. I would not feed the trolls by apologizing.

When discussing a word in its spoken context, you use the number of syllables, not the number of letters, to quantify the amount of effort involved.

"Camaro" is three syllables.
"Cammy" is two syllables - a 33% reduction in effort.

Cheers!

Typical Canadian.

Too apologetic.
