    Mispronunciations

    Why do people say Pacific when they really mean to say Specific?

    FFS it absolutely really does make my arrse itch.

    I was in a meeting today and a bloke had Pacific-itis he mispronounced specific at least three times and it really made my piss fizz.

    An itchy arrse and fizzy piss is really all too much in one day. :(

    Anusol :D Dont know about the fizzy p!ss though.

    Not just people who mispronounce ( unless they have a genuine impediment ) but also people who shorten words, like biccies instead of biscuits etc, ffs how old are these imbeciles, 2??

    I agree; you should have chinned the bastard, then set fire to his house.

    Fcuking annoying.

    Re: Mispronunciations

    My Arrse itched the other day. I wiped it with kitchen roll (Rough surface). No poo came off as I expected that was the cause but it did cure the itch.

    Try it - It may help!

    Too much protein in it, you need an antibiotic...... Try wiping your arse with a strip of fibreglass insulation.
    Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.

    Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.
    Alternatively, put stacker1 on ignore.

    I didn't say it was your fucking fault, I said I was blaming you.

    Adver tisement instead of Advertis ment.

    Distri buter instead of Distrib utor

    Contro versy (new Beebspeak) instead of Controv ersy. Cunts. Pass the fibreglass.

    Re: Mispronunciations

    I know people that just can't say certain words.

    My friend pronounces jewellery "jew-ewl-ler-ler-ree". She might just be retarded though. Some people still have problems pronouncing it anyway, i've heard it said alot of different, weird and wonderful ways.
    I would offer moral support, but i have questionable morals.
