I've been thinking...

Ok, I'm going to avoid beating the proverbial dead horse with this one, and keep this somewhat brief.

Disoriented - to cause somebody to feel lost or confused, especially with regard to direction or position. 5 syllables. Takes 1 full second to enunciate correctly.

Disorientated - see Disoriented. 6 syllables. Takes 1.3 seconds to enunciate correctly.

Therefore, every time you say Disorientated you are losing 0.3 seconds of your life that you will never get back. So if on average you say it only once per week, by the end of your timely demise, you would have wasted 18.2 minutes on extra syllables. Instead, why don't you take those extra 18.2 minutes, and practice English.

Oh, and you sound ridiculous. Or should I say, ridiculouslous.
