I’m fed up of listening to you pronouncing Halloween as Holloween, and now you’re talking about Harry Potter and the deathly Hollows!
You pronounce an ‘A’ as an ‘O’. What is wrong with you?
It’s bad enough listening to the rubbish between six and six thirty but this just gives me the screaming shits! —Wordsmith

What can you say – they just don’t teach pronuciation in school anymore. Osshales!
haha, nice tag mystery mod…i’m guessing the news is irritating this op
Another great tag – one month too late
Deal with it, OP.
Could you please ram a pumpkin down your throat? Your bitch is simply annoying.
(Singing) ‘I say potato, you say potato…’
Meg….Ah-hwile
Stewie….Cooowip
No, it’s not annoying. The ppl that say Holloween are usually minging chicks with tucked in Lulus texting away on a BB like “what you doing for Holloween?”
With that being said; OP, here’s a piece that has put me at ease with the many “mistakes” I find in other’s speech. It is what it is.

No RC, it’s Cool Hwip ;D
loved it donk. Now…will annie watch & listen to it?
No Sir, ’cause Annie is a ninny.
I like it too Donk! Very interesting.
too much good stuff, that was excellent donk numero two^^
I’m glad Stephen Fry was a hit 😀 He’s fantastic on QI.
Thank you Donk – that was rumbustiously entertaining.
Now this was a stupid bitch. Big deal; someone’s accident is different than yours. Next week some moron will post a bitch about someone with an accent saying the word ‘Karma’ in a “not normal way.”
Damn it Ivan. You beat me to the Osshales. Sounds kinda Autralian. Say Fuck Off backwards and it sounds British. (Ffo Kcuf)
I meant Australian.
LOL – Si Senor. >: ) I always like putting a British inflection on my swears. Like – “Feck Off”. And I always say Twat with a flat “A” rather than the North American “Twot” It just sounds better.
feck off and piss orf, two of my faves but i only use them in jest^^mornin ivan
Morning Painey. I also find that the dreaded “C-Word” sounds best when snarled in a Johnny Rottenish tone and accent. *HeeHaw.* Supposedly, the American actors playing hobbits in Lord of the Rings were a bit taken aback at the frequency and ease with which their British castmates used the contentious monosyllable.
i must confess that after watching corrie st. for many moons i enjoy the basic bawdy banter…giv over, wanker, pillock. to quote blanche “i’d cut off his whatnots wi’ a pair of garden shears, me, the rustier the better”
Rest In Peace Maggie Jones:(
Apparently her wit in real life was even greater than that of our beloved Blanche. There is a marvelous three-part tribute to her on youtube, corrie-sis, if you haven’t seen it. I’d throw in the link here if I weren’t rushed for time right now, but I’m sure you, et al, are more than savvy enough to find it on your own, if need be.
thanks oceanbabe, she had the best lines
I’m going to start saying “piss orf” and “fuck orf.” Not making fun of your typo, pg, but I think ‘orf’ sounds more amusing 😀
haha, it wasn’t a typo…i don’t tend to use orf with feck, just piss but i like to change things up. heehaw
WHO REALLY GIVES A FUCK HOW YOU SAY IT? guess who’s baaaaaaack?
Welcome Back Lifer. You’ve not missed diddley-jack-squat. Annie has given up the ghost, Your Hunting thread has gone over 300 posts and this week bitchers have been obsessed with periods. Did you get a deer?
no ivan, did not get one, due to fucking stupidity, mine. had a real beautiful buck in crosshairs and was gonna give it to him in neck. squeezed trigger and CLICK, forgot to jack a shell in the ficking chamber. deer looked at me, laughed, jumped over a fallen tree, and a guy who was watching shot it. not a friend of ours, some guy in a tree stand. just at the very break of day today.got disgusted and said fuck it all, and came home at noon. sop, our non resident asshole isn’t around anymore. glad to see the hunting non bitch go over 300, that has to be a big record for the coast, and they should be glad that they have us bitchers about. hey everyone, how are yas.
I won’t say Annie isn’t around but he’s just been phoning it in the last couple of posts. So, will you get another chance or is it over for this year?
i’m so disgusted at today, think i’ll take a break for a few days. and get what’s left of brain in gear.
by the way, do you guys like my new pic. it’s a white crow. got it from a guy in michigan. he has it hand raised.
hey suckulous, that’s a beautiful crow…rawk
thot you would like it painy, put it up just for you.
where would you get such a foolish idea like that? ^^^
Rawkin’ good pic Lifer. Welcome home me son. You’ve clearly got some missed opportunities to make up for. Giggity.
You actually have a white crow. Well I never … Does it have a name?
no donk, i don’t have it, just the pics that were sent to me from some dude in michighan state. guess he found it hurt one day, helped it out, and it just stayed by him. cool bird tho. wish i did have it. i have some pics of a pure white squirrel, taken by my sis in law 2 year ago, at her house in sprytown. will put them up next week.
Ah I see. Just never knew white crows existed … my mind was a little blown.
for any animal of color, there is always an albino, or white colored critter. there has even been a white robin sighted in the valley about twen years ago.
and if you think i was kidding about white robins, here is one for your enjoyment.
As far as I know, albino animals occur naturally in pretty much every species. But they almost always die young as being white sucks anywhere that isn’t snow covered. There’s tons of famous albino animals. Moby Dick for one, there’s actually records of a real white sperm whale that survived an unusually long time despite being specifically hunted because of it’s colour… some think it even influenced the story. What sucks is when people find these animals and decide to breed them for their colour. Because of the small gene pool and inbreeding, these animals end up suffering. White tigers are pretty, but they really shouldn’t exist.
And Donk, the first thing I thought of when I read this bitch was Stephen Fry, you took the words right out of my mouth.
Welcome back suckulicious! You should read the horny menstruating post if you haven’t yet (I’m just returning myself). I’m really enjoying everyone’s new avs – yours included Donk, it’s perfect!
cranky ole son, this new pic is just for you.
After 32 years, i still don’t care who makes fun of me for calling sandwiches “samwiches.” Pronouncing the ‘d’ is akward, and no, i don’t have a speech impediment…nor am i from spryfield.
I say sandwich in the internet’s preferred spelling of “sammich”.
