How do you update?

What do you do to update?  I'm very bored so I made a poll  :twisted:

You know, there are plenty of things you can do when you're bored. Many of them include not filling up the forum with junk.  :shock:

Junk?  This is valuable information!  Inquiring minds want to know!

pacman ess why you, or pacman syou, or pacman sue.

Syuing is a word, according to the grammar god (=moi!), but suying is not, ergo pacman -Syu is correct.

call me atheist, but i like to suy instead of syu [statistically, "y" is very frequently the last letter in the english language, that's why]

Re: How do you update?

I use -Syu, because it's faster to type it because of the letter arrangement on my keyboard (y is closer than u to s). Of cource it might be faster if I typed it suy using two hands, but blah.
