Dorothy Parker wanted to have lunch with Herbert Marshall. She kept calling him to try and set up a lunch date and he kept saying he couldn't fit her into his 'shedyule'. She was later heard to remark that she thought he was full of 'skit'.

Well maybe in British English this is a bad description. For me cat doesn't rhyme with caught, it rhymes with "Ack!" or back or flack or tack. It is the American short "a" rather than the British short "a."

wtf are you talking about? cat to rhyme with caught ? mentalism!
