When a state leaves a geopolitical union it secedes. The desire of a state to leave a geopolitical union is the desire to secede. The act of a state leaving a geopolitical union is secession. A person who wants his state to exit a geopolitical union is a secessionist. I say this because with many of the more vocal and less cerebral members of the public our United States entering petitions for their state to peaceably exit the Union and form their own NEW (sic) government, secession has been floating around the interwebs. The only problem is that it seems no one outside of the professional media actually knows how to fucking spell the word ‘secede.’ Many of these sagely pundits on what is best for their little division of this landmass seem to have great skill at starting the word ‘secession’ but havent quite seemed to figure out the art of stopping. In the blogosphere and on the face machines, from prognosticators and fools I have seen ‘suseed,’ ‘seceed,’ ‘susied,’ ‘susceed,’ ‘sucssession,’ ‘sessession,’ ‘sussesstion,’ and any other number of spellings. Seriously, do none of these brain trusts know what a fucking dictionary is? It makes the baby Jesus cry when you think that most browsers will underline misspelled words for you. I know this is kind a mild bitch, but fuck, if these dumb-shits are going to try to convince me with their rabid talk of secession and states rights, they should at least learn how to spell the word ‘secede.’ Hell, I’m just going to throw this out as a rule of thumb for the fucktards in this nation: if you can’t spell or pronounce something, you probably shouldn’t be for it or against it, because you probably don’t know enough about it.
Hey, you just don’t speak Texlish. Don’t be a ignoramus.
Ignorance fought.
I am, unfortunately, quite fluent in Texlish. I have spent the bulk of my 39 years on this planet in Texas.
Nonsense, sir! All variations on the word have exactly the same spelling and pronunciation: see-sesh!
I give up… you lot across the pond are never going to learn to spell ‘arseholes’…
At least we can spell “color” and “center” properly, which seems to be more than any Brit can manage.
“Center” is clearly wrong. Someone who is politically middle-of-the-road is a centrist, not a centerist. The middle of something is central, not centeral. On a related note, a theatre is an establishment where people enjoy theatrical performances. A theater is a thing that theats.
Don’t give them any ideas. Next they’ll want to become their own planet.
I’d trade a dictionary for a paragraph any day!
If at first you don’t secede…
You got a long ways to go, my friend. I’m a native Texas and I turn 64 next month. Apart from three trips overseas where I lived in Indonesia, Singapore, Australia and the Republic of the Marshall Islands for a total of 4 years, I’ve been here in Texas.
I’m not sure about whether the 12 years I spent living in The People’s Republic of Austin count, though.
Susied? Really?
This endless succession of secession suggestions is becoming senseless.
Texas is on this planet? Oh, fuck.
(Scotty, we need that warp drive NOW!)
I sure hope it is, 'cos I’ve been there several times and if it’s not I forgot to get souvenirs at the astroport :mad:
I am reminded Aleister Crowley’s The Book of Lies, Chapter 69: “The Way to Succeed – And the Way to Suck Eggs!”
I wonder how many people signed the petition because they wanted Texas to succeed?
How do you feel about spending your remaining 30-odd years in the Republic of Texas? 
Then pronounce them centruh and theatruh.
