    I use Grey because it looks like it should

    Gray is just to happy looking

    YAY it's gray outside lets go play!

    Grey has the darker looking spelling like the heart of an emo kid

    I prefer "grey". I'm from Texas; however, I have been a big fan of British literature since I was young, so maybe that pushed me towards the "European" spelling.

    Vexed questions for the win! Digimon or Pokémon? Pizza or hamburger? SWTOR or WoW?

    OT: Usually I use "grey". I used to like "gray" a lot more, but nowadays it's almost always "grey" for me. Curious.

    Now thinking about it I think I live in the wrong place

    I always use cheque when referring to a a document ordering bank to pay the stated amount

    I have a Fiat and ride a Vespa.......

    I use both, and interchangeably. I had an English teacher once try to tell me that grey was incorrect, and if I needed to go back to elementary school to learn how to spell. After proving her wrong, I then proceeded to force myself to learn to switch the spellings at will. So that is why I spell it both gray and grey.

    I like "grey" better, but I also like "color" better, so /shrug

    Sometimes I'll switch up gray/grey, rarely will I do so with colour/color, though.

    Other American/English spellings just depend.

    When i say the word "gray" i actually pronounce it different than "grey". When I say "gray" i add an inflection at the vowel sound and it sounds more "lively", when I say "grey" there is no inflection and it sounds more melancholy. When I think of grey I think of melancholy, so I spell it "grey"

    Sometimes I change it around, honestly, I think gray sounds happier than grey, so when I'm trying to be darker I'll use grey instead.

    .. I dunno, I'm dumb.

    Lost a spelling bee when I was a kid once because of this fucking word. I don't even remember which one I used, but the teacher apparently didn't approve. Fuckin a
    Actually, Mr. Lennon, I CAN imagine a world with no hatred, religion, war, or violence.
    I can also imagine attacking such a world, because they would never see it coming.
