It's two syllables instead of three so quicker and rolls off the tongue easier, some people type as they speak (not that i'm disagreeing with you). Fezzer.....only 1 letter shorter than Ferrari,so what's the point of abbreviating it and making it sound stupid ?

It's also about changing the name of something/someone for some (comedy?) reasons, it makes our language more interesting.
Sorry, got my serious head on this morning.
A friend of mine has recently had through their door, a laminated note from the new owners of a house three doors away, inviting the neighbours around for a cup of tea to "discuss" ideas to make their house a "nicer family house".
The laminate has on it a photo of the two kids "hoping that mummy and daddy will get planning permission for a basement".
I don't live on this street, but this annoys me.
On a similar note, my parents last week had a letter from their next door neighbours about planned building work after the summer, yet they do not mention in the letter what the planned building work is for. They have now p1ssed off my father by 1) notifying immediate neighbours only by letter and 2) not stating the purpose of the intended building works.

At the risk of resurrecting a PH standard, I'd be very tempted to attend their "discussions" and find a way to take a piss in their kettle (after drinking their tea, of course).The laminate has on it a photo of the two kids "hoping that mummy and daddy will get planning permission for a basement".

It was last Saturday and I am told nobody attended.

This annoys me too. It sounds like the biggest load of absolute crap ever - using a method involving their children to veil what is probably a very aggresive attempt at gaining planning permission. They would probably go out of their way to do anything to get it and feel they are entirely entitled to it regardless of what anybody else thinks.
