Talk:1339: When You Assume
Tesshavon (talk) 09:11, 7 March 2014 (UTC) this is a direct reference to the popular saying 'When you ASSUME, you make an ASS out of U and ME'.
I'm not a native English speaker, and I'm just curious. Is there any popular saying about ass-ass-inating someone? 173.245.53.161 10:25, 7 March 2014 (UTC)
- To the best of my knowledge, there is no such saying, but I'm sure it's a spelling mnemonic used by many. jameslucas (" " / +) 14:18, 7 March 2014 (UTC)
Assert is also used in programming (c and such) 108.162.241.11 13:35, 7 March 2014 (UTC)
Thank goodness for the 'ERT' explanation; I had terrible notions of a portmanteau involving 'insert'. jameslucas (" " / +) 14:16, 7 March 2014 (UTC)
