Well, no, but only because I wasn't aware of the, um, correct spelling before adding my own little mis-word.
Much obliged on the correction/suggestion/recommendation/shove in the right direction.

I wasn't trying to be snooty, coldspire... I sometimes do the same thing (crappuccino, anyone?). I just thought there might be a conversation going on on the other page, and you might be interested and miss it. :) Welcome to Wordie!

Haughty couture works for me, though.

coldspire commented on the word haught couture
Oh, I didn't take any offense. I genuinely appreciated the correction (and such a gracious correction, too).
This is akin to being recently admonished on the correct pronunciation of altimeter, which is evidently not spoken as "all-tee-mee-ter." After being righted I feel all the better, partially because I've gained an unwittingly self-made neologism that can be used to annoy pedants.
But I wouldn't dare annoy anyone here, so thanks again. :]

What? You're not going to annoy anyone here? What's the fun in that? ;->
P.S. Nifty name.
