I love their web address. They’re aware of it and having fun.
I doubt it :3
Mate you do realise that they also surely know it's spelled that way in American English and that it also sounds the same phonetically.
Even if they're aware on some level, people in the rest of the world don't go around thinking about American spellings all day. And this is one of the less obvious ones. So nah, there's a reasonable chance they don't, especially because "totally mold" is not even meaningful or a pun or anything.
The world doesn't revolve around the US :) So no, I don't think "totally mold" as a motto is referring to the fungus.
I am born and raised in London, and also spent some time living in Wales.
The pun is well understood, and obviously referring to the fungus as a tongue in cheek sort of humour. I find it more difficult trying to figure out how anyone here would be confused by that.
Even if the American spelling was mould as well, it's such an obvious relationship.
Well how about I go straight to the horse's mouth?
