Word cheaters.

So now that I'm an itelephone user, I've started playing Words With Friends. I much prefer scrabble against the computer, but oh well. I've only played Bob and one other person so far. I let the itelephone work it's magic and produce a random opponent. Well. "Keith" cheated. A lot.

Now I'm not generally a sore loser. I know when my skills are outmatched. I accept it. I also know that "Keith" was cheating. Things started off even, then took an ugly turn. I like to think my scrabble skills are pretty amazing. WWF is not scrabble, but I still know me some good ol' words.

However, my 13 years of private school, 4 years of college, 2 years of graduate school, and 31 years of being did not prepare me for words like horal, zeins, yar (even despite it's regular Philadelphia Story reference), and intron. Now maybe "Keith" is some sort of super scientist and uses words like zeins and intron on a daily basis. However, I suspect he's a big fat cheater cheater pumpkin eater. Using those words, "Keith" won 427 to 277. Really? Wtf, over?

If "Keith" tries to play me in yet another game, I WILL find the space and letters to use the words "fuck" and "off" and "Keith" in some sort of succession.

For the record, blogger spellcheck doesn't recognize horal, zeins, yar, or intron.

So there, "KEITH."
