right then. what's next?

This is actually an historic occasion for another reason--remember, remember the fifth of November is another important anniversary:

53 years ago today, Dr. Emmett Brown invented the flux capacitor, the device which makes time travel possible! \o/

Anyway. I come seeking advice, dear Livejournal, on some completely and totally hypothetical stop looking at me issues, and since I respect and crave appreciate your input, here's a handy poll:

[Poll #1292132]

See, I kind of feel like changing my spelling to look like I'm a European author is wrong and poser-y, but I don't want it to be a distraction, y'know? *frets*

And the second question completely and totally did not come up this very morning for me or anything and is not giving me mental distress or anything so just stop looking at me like that.

Oh, small fandoms with as yet a handful of episodes, you are difficult on the early adopters.

When I'm writing Fraser's POV, I write Canadian, including the spelling.

I wrote in a Brit fandom for years. I wish I'd made a bigger effort to get the spelling right.

Canadianity can be rough, too--'cause, like, does one write out "zed" and "leftenant"? Some of the Americans get mad if you don't, and some of the Canadians get mad if you do...

(I totally worry about these things a lot.)

I'd write out "zed" and "leftenant" if I was writing an American listening to Fraser speak ... but Fraser doesn't think "zed" and "leftenant" when he's speaking, so I wouldn't write those out from his POV.
