There is no plural for the word piffle. One is enough. Its first recorded use on SI was on the 1997 rmil thread by an individual posting as 'mkugler', and posters subsequently using the word, including myself, were accused of being he, which was not entirely intolerable, as i kinda liked the guy.

John P, i lurk your thread ... look how high up i put it in a list of quality theads earlier today - Message 15179190

Surely we could pool some savings and buy this place from Mr Jain?
