Look it up in a dictionary. As reference you may want to also look up the verb to glorify.

A misconception. A male witch would be a witch. Witches are those who use witchcraft (satanic magic). Warlock is a saxon word meaning "Oathbreaker". A male witch would often be referred to as a warlock if he became a witch as an act of rebellion against the priesthood. This is because many younger sons of rich men became priests in the traditions of medieavel England, where the eldest would inherit, the middle would join the military, and the youngest enter religious service. These younger sosn often grew bored with the contrast between their life of luxury and their subsequent religious poverty. They became witches (and hence broke their oaths, making them warlocks) because they believed that the devil would offer them a "better deal".

A wizard is one who uses his words to do magic. A warlock is one who breaks an oath. See above.

You might not think you need a dictionary, but you certainly need a spellchecker before you can tell others to go and look things up.   :rolleyes:

Either that or Wizards.

Why all the wizard-hate? Surely a more likely explanation is Gremlins. Not the movie-type, but the kind that lived in the wiring of WWII aircraft.

It's daytime when he wakes up, and you see everything Fry does from when he wakes up to when he finds out it's 12/31/2999. And the problem is with him waking up too early to begin with. I think the first several posts in this thread took care of it pretty well.

1.Spammer,not scammer.
2.He posts pointless stuff.That makes him a spammer.
3.Again,he posts pointless stuff.So,he's probably a fake account.
4.Why do you use capital letters so randomly?

He was a poet. He is well known for the unconventional capitalization and general all-around format of his poetry, so much, in fact, that his publishers began printing his name in lowercase and without punctuation as well, dispite his disapproval.

him remembered loved style words tell words stories him pictures painted beautiful they are yet thoughtful yet

However, it's not good enough for the internet. Please use correct capitalisation. You are not e.e. cummings, nor will you ever be.

Having said that, welcome to PEEL.

Thanks for those who stuck up for me, and can I point out that lowercase is excepted on MSN which is as far as i no - The Internet. Anyway isn't this meant to be  about Futurama not Punchuation (Sp?) and Grammer?

1). MSN is not "the internet".  :rolleyes:

2). PEEL prides itself on not being crammed to the rafters with morons and retards. Everybody who doesn't want to be labeled as one takes some care over their spelling, punctuation, grammar, and general posting style. There are a few exceptions, but they are well-established and have proven themselves here. If you wish to be taken seriously, I suggest that you take pains to appear more literate than the average denizen of myspace or MSN. Perhaps you should also attempt to cultivate a beard for the refined look of a worldly-wise person.

Smoke a pipe whilst you are posting, as well. Pipe-smokers are always intelligent and never spell badly.

3). MSN is not "the internet".  :rolleyes:

Ah.. the MSN defense.. sorry but that doesn’t fly in my book. Besides, why is it so hard about at least trying to use proper spelling and grammar? Is it ignorance or laziness??

English isn't my first language; still I at least try to get it right.

So for what it’s worth I agree with what totalnerduk said.

Well what about people who are  dyslexic? What's your answer to that? Are they not aloud to come onto PEEL as they may get insulted or worse?

Huh?It's not hard to hold "Shift" or click on "Caps Lock".A person who wouldn't be able to do that probably wouldn't be able to write at all!

Post in Microsft Word, use the spell-checker, and copy into the quick-reply box.

If they have a disability it is their job to take measures to make themselves understood as much as it is ours to be understanding and tolerant.

Dyslexia is so easily overcome (via spell-checking where sheer force of will is not available) that it's not an excuse.

Yes, I do know several dyslexics. They generally spell and punctuate more accurately than other people because they know they will have a problem making themselves understood if they do not make the effort.

Please do not attempt to defend your misguided mistake further, or you risk the loss of my calm, polite and instructive demeanour.
