Poll question: Is it Dammit? or Damnit?
Or, whatever?

An appropriate picture ( I found this GIS: "Damn" ):

3. Dammit has a delightful internal symmetry
though it's "Damn it!"

Still, I prefer "Dammit."

6. "Damn it" if two words; "dammit" if one.
Edited on Mon Jun-20-05 08:38 PM by Redstone
That's the rule, direct from the Redstone Style Manual of Cussin' Proper-Like.

LOLOLOL....I'd like a copy, when you get around to having the publishers fight over who gets to print it, if you please!

8. Actually, it's from one of my essays from way back when
I wrote columns for a few newspapers, under the heading of Random Wanderings. I'll see if I can dig it up and send it to you, if you'll PM me your email address.

14. "dammit" is a curse; "damnit" is a quibble about a water retention system.
