If the story is called "no regerts" then the title would be "no regerts".

There, now you've seen it.

Whilst you will obviously like seeing it, reading the book will prove less enjoyable unless an editor is found, or spellcheck is used first.

It's intentionally called no regerts.

Not necessarily, as most story titles are called "crappy", regardless of the actual title itself. ;)

For example: "The story My Sister Reamed My Buggered Ass has a crappy title!

As tempting as that may be, I suspect a stronger title would be "My Two Regerts". With the one absolute, there's little to wonder about and/or intrigue readers, but with a specific number, it gives readers something to wrap their minds around (i.e. "why only two, and why do those two override all the other possible regerts") so I'd expect it to be a better reader draw (one being too few and three being too many).

Update: Corrected to account for the intentional misspelling of the title.

A story about someone who girds their loins then screws up and doesn't get a second chance would be 'No Regirts'.

A story about a southern US chef who refuses to give someone second helpings could be titled "No Regrits"

Egrets are wading shore birds. They don't swim.

Though it mainly hunts while wading, the Great Egret occasionally swims to capture prey

So should we all assume nothing is factually correct unless YOU have seen it?

No, but I see them all the time, so it's likely a rare occurrence, and occasionally swimming =/= capable of swimming for 40 days straight.

They wouldn't need to swim for 40 days (and nights) consecutively, only float.

Also, why the prejudice against gay egrets?

On stormy seas out of sight of any dry land. And you would expect a shallow fresh water wading bird to survive that?

I said the days were straight, not the egrets. :p

Of course..!!

It is far more believable than a boat being stocked with two of every creature (known to the writers, no kangaroos for example) together with enough food that they don't get eaten by the apex predators amongst them. Not to mention the implicit resultant incest element. Plus of course, olive trees are not flood tolerant.

Doris was not. She was very pretty when she was young. Rock Hudson was gay.

Egrets

From an article by Cornell Lab
"The Great Egret is the symbol of the National Audubon Society, one of the oldest environmental organizations in North America. Audubon was founded to protect birds from being killed for their feathers.
Not all young that hatch survive the nestling period. Aggression among nestlings is common and large chicks frequently kill their smaller siblings. This behavior, known as siblicide, is not uncommon among birds such as hawks, owls, and herons, and is often a result of poor breeding conditions in a given year.
The pristinely white Great Egret gets even more dressed up for the breeding season. A patch of skin on its face turns neon green, and long plumes grow from its back. Called aigrettes, those plumes were the bane of egrets in the late nineteenth century, when such adornments were prized for ladies' hats.
In mixed-species colonies, Great Egrets are often the first species to arrive, and their presence may induce nesting among other species.
Great Egrets fly slowly but powerfully: with just two wingbeats per second their cruising speed is around 25 miles an hour.
Though it mainly hunts while wading, the Great Egret occasionally swims to capture prey or hovers (somewhat laboriously) over the water and dips for fish.
The oldest known Great Egret was 22 years, 10 months old and was banded in Ohio."

Then there was my mom, who stood for no arguments. "No Retorts".

She also did not do well in chemistry for some reason.
