I'm not just jealous of silmaril's groovy grammar geeking threads, honest.

Okay, I just looked it up: the correct spelling according the the 1967 Webster's Seventh New Collegiate Dictionary (which also contains the word "dingus", by the way) is "whee", with two 'e's.

But it looks wrong to me. Maybe it's just in this typeface (the one in my Telnet window, 9 pt. "Terminal" regular)? I know that extra 'e's get added on for emphasis or certain subflavours of sarcasm, but I can't help thinking that even a 'vanilla' "wheee" looks more natural with three than with two. "Wheee!" So is this a case of usage drift (perhaps caused by supernumerary vowels being used too often? (And would that make them supersupernumerary?) Or is it a subculture/cyber-dialect thing? Or is it just me, and everyone else thinks "whee" looks fine?

In other "news", I just noticed the following:
