I was idly flicking through the Comedy Festival programme this morning when I saw a familiar face: a guy I went to school with is doing a show, called “Run Nerd Boy Run!”
So I read the blurb to Marita.
When I got to the last bit: these two are treating life like an underfed puppy after Christmas all logic went out the window, and I managed to interpret the word underfed not as
under-fed
but as
un-derfed.
I’m not sure what derfing is, but evidently some puppies don’t get enough of it.

Someone needs a lil’ more sleep. *L*
Well, I also read the word as un-derfed the first time, thought about it (“what the hell is a derf?”), realised my mistake, then went on to read that you had done the same thing – at least you’re not alone in the world!
Surely the correct spelling is underffed?
Glad to see that there are people who care that so many puppies are not derfed as often as they should be !
Now I hope we can meet the challenge of putting words into next years blurb that will cause the same contention.
ps – sorry Daniel, but I do not recall you from school.
heh. Well Alec, that would be because it was Troy I remember from Melbourne High, not you!
