Motherf***ing En**ish Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, whores and priests, students and educators, humans, aliens, and low-level theoretically coherent-thinking apes who use English and other languages, please note it is not:

askerickses
askerisks
askherixes
aztrix
asserisks
azer-wrists
axerixis
and especially not
asstricks

It is "asterisks."  Aster, like the flower, and Risks, which is the collective plural form of what you are taking if you do not heed this motherf***ing note.

Thank you, and g**d night.
