The bloody proletariat

A glass of savvy-on. Savvy-on blank.

Bah.

Nah, I'll 'ave an Expresso. And make sure it's a full cup this time. And stick some milk innit.

I heard a guy pronounce Veuve Clicquot as "Vwe-vay Clee-cot" once. I was so appalled my monocle fell out.

Terrible. People just don't think of the long terms effects their diction can have.

They should never have been given the vote. Hanging's too good for them. Send them to Australia. In chains.

Slightly serious question as I see these threads occur quite often. If people are so erudite and sophisticated as to be appalled at mid-pronounciations like this, just what exactly are you doing and where, to be in a position to hear this in the first instance?

[EnglishTony]

What's a mid-pronunciation?

Have a guess?

Clue 1: I have an iPhone.
Clue 2: I don't proof read anything that isn't work related.

[EnglishTony]

We really should ask for a monocole falling out smiley.

There's an old saying my mother used to use.

If you can't type anything properly, don't type anything at all.

Or words to that effect.

Excellent, I will ask for it to be added to the list, which I'm sure will be completed by 2026.

But I'm not a typist and the world has moved on.

Please, please, please forgive me for not spotting an S had been auto replaced by a D. I understand that it is truly heinous and terribly troubling to so many people but at the same time I feel it important to understand that I don't give a flying fk. And like most normal people I have a myriad more important things to concern myself over and to invest my time into.

Indeed, such as the fact that mispronunciation doesn't have a hyphen either.

Oh, woe is me. Such horrors. Such crimes. How will we all survive and get through this terrible event?

Who is this Miss Pronunciation and does she have her own equipment?
