The only thing that embarrases me about being an Amiga user is Amiga Inc. I honestly wish that they'd hand over the reins to someone who cares.

I often mention my Amigas at work.
(I have assumed that flout was intended to be flaunt.)


I assume that if you combine flaunt + tout = flout.

No. They're different words with completely different meanings and etymology.


I assume if you combine scientology + mythology = etymology
