I'm just curious. Is it kind of a thing like the word color? (or Colour outside the U.S.A.)

Something went wrong when aluminium was transferred to American English - I personally believe that it was just a typo.

Close this thread already, for the love of god.
I just had twelve Chinese students try and check into my residential college at once. All of them were speaking over the top of each other in broken English that I would have been hard-pressed to understand even if only one person was talking at a time. At one point or another, they simply interrupted me to try and check themselves in. Half of them demanded room changes that I couldn't give them, while the other half were trying to reserve rooms for someone who would be coming in two months' time when we're already over-booked because the international student office is staffed by a bunch of monkeys who don't seem to understand the phrase "We are full" and sent these twelve down because they knew the office regulars would be away. Most of the Chinese tried to swap rooms with one another the moment I looked away, and the rest of them hadn't even made the downpayment on their accomodation. I even had to go and dig one of them out of a room that had been reserved for someone else; they simply deicded to help themselves to it because their friends were in that flat. And while I'm trying to do all of this, there were four other people who hold the same position as I do who didn't lift a finger to help me and instead alternated between telling me not to stress out and trying to make the Chinese students feel more comfortable by socialising with them.👍 Yea, I wonder whats taking the Mods so long.
