My Adventures in Surfing (31 Unique Searches, Part 2)

Here we go again!

1. Difference between it and it's-that's right, I will admit, I occasionally have this problem. But now I won't cause I pinned the answer to my bulletin board! The answer on this site is plain and clear!

2. How about affect and effect? Though I am beginning to understand, I have fought with this one my whole life.

That helps, but I think I'll still use a grammar check!

3. Looked up a band I saw last night. I also wrote a blog called "No Warning" about them if you want to check it out-they're great!

4. Ever been told someone's name and though, What were their parents thinking?Yeah, me too; but I don't want to hurt their feelings, so let's see the anonymous ones...like Seymor Butz. Wow, some of these are horrible!

5. Okay, this is totally random and slightly disturbing, but I've always wondered...How does a Unick work? Is their...you know...is it cut off or what?

Amidst this search I found several funny things. Did you know there is a brand of clothes called "Unick Clothing and Shoes, Unlimited?" Holy crap! Do they need special clothes? And why would they ever need different shoes?! Ha, jk, I'm sure it has nothing to do with actual Unicks, but still...

Here's what I learned: the original spelling was Eunich. The new spelling is slang. This site provides both definitions. I rate the page PG-13.

So, I guess I'm doing these in fives cause it really takes more time than you would think. Happy surfing! Hope you are enjoying this.
