It's still "merchandise" either way (even though I just looked it up and merchandize is still a word...maybe a weird alternate spelling or something).

And American...because, well, I'm in the U.S.

For me, I prefer the British way. Mainly because I've been educated with British English, and it's "proper English".

(I sound like a british now..O_o;;)

I don't think this really matters much but I guess British. p.s. I am Canadian so I also right favour, colour, flavour, etc. with "our" instead of "or".

I use American English. :P

But for what you pointed out, I make a few exceptions.

I spell it realise, merchandise, and I use both set of date-times. I only use British dates when I'm in Spanish class though. :P Stupid teacher makes us use them.
