Re: Winch - Wench
Haha good one! I had to correct a classic car company once on that very thing when they advertised a trailer with a 'wench' and they didn't know the difference til I told them exactly what your pic implies....

Re: Winch - Wench
Funny stuff. Another word I see often on this board is "prolly". I wasn't sure if maybe that's modern internet shorthand that I've never heard of, so I never mentioned anything. But if it isn't, please note the word is "probably", not "prolly".

I've had Autocorrect substitute "prolly" for "probably" a number of times. If you're typing fast you can miss it before you post. If you use the "look up" function it takes you to Wiktionary which defines it as: "(colloquial, slang) Probably. 'I should prolly keep my eyes on the road.'" David Serrano |
