Lemonade Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 The gutter press' new annoying habit of shortening everyone's name, eg:LiLo (Lindsay Lohan)SaRo (Sam Ronson)JoBro (Jonas Brothers)SuBo (Susan Boyle)And also the likes of "Bennifer" (Jennifer Lopez / Ben Affleck) and "Brangelina" (Brad / Angelina).I don't know why but this particularly annoyed me today.

I also cannot pronounce croissant properly. It's a cra-sawnt.However I get pissy about people not pronouncing Spanish words properly (ie Mallorca - I hate when people say Ma-Jork-a, instead of Ma-York-a, and Villareal - should be Vi-ya-ray-al, but some people say Villa-ray-al).

Guest Exposure @ Lemon Tree Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 Pronounced like testes?No more like "text is"As in this text is very funny. Except there's less of a gap between the end of text and the beginning of is. Kind of like text's (the apostrophe to mark a missing letter like in don't).It's difficult to describe, but it's fucking annoying. It would take less effort just to say texts. And it would be correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 However I get pissy about people not pronouncing Spanish words properly (ie Mallorca - I hate when people say Ma-Jork-a, instead of Ma-York-a, and Villareal - should be Vi-ya-ray-al, but some people say Villa-ray-al).Even football pundits consistantly pronounce it Villa-ray-al. Well, I say football pundits, I mean ITV, so it's more like a circus of waffling numbskulls who somehow get aired on telly. You get the idea though.Football pronunciation is a funny old thing. As I've said before, it's baffling as to how many ways John Motson can pronounce Mascherano and Xavi Alonso's names. But he's slowly losing his mind everyday, so we can forgive him, kind of.

Lemonade Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 Gabriel Marcotti is funny, he talks with an American accent, but whenever he mentions any Italian players he says their name in the most ridiculous over-exaggerated Italian accent you've ever heard. Hearing him on the radio, it's like one of the Mario Brothers just interjects at random intervals and says something comical in Italian while this American bloke is talking."I don't think anyone should be questioning Mr. "CAP-ELLLL-O!"'s team selection."

Lemonade Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 He does it a little bit here when he says "Luca Toni" in an Italian accent, though he says all the other players names in an American accent. This is quite subtle compared to some of the times he does it but it's the only clip I can find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemonade Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 In a similar vein, after a season and a half of being called Sebastien Vettel (pr. either vettle or ve-TELL), BBC's Formula 1 commentary team have decided to start pronouncing it Fettle. With an F! How has that happened? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 When I was younger, I pronounced it Day-vid Gin-oh-ler, and I don't even care. He can fuck right off. It's David. So, I'm going to pronounce it David. I don't go too overboard with Thierry Awnree either.Terry 'Enry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HairyScaryMark Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 When a song comes on in a pub that people are obsessed with (i.e Tenacious D) or a party somewhere, drunk people look towards me and act as if they are singing it to me.Also, people who invite you round to their house then tell off their guests for just about everything. Leaving the door open between rooms, using the wrong type of glass (after them refusing to get off their arses and get one or even describing which ones are acceptable to use). Then someone puts a drink on a table and this is treated as a great crime, despite not having any coasters in a visable place.Smokers who refuse to open windows when it is blatently both too warn and too smokey (just about every smoker I know tends to do this as well as people who let smokers smoke in their house) and they always have a reason like "people will steal my valuable stuff I left beside the window which goes onto the main street", "the wildlife will come in" or "it will get cold",People who are incapable of listening to full songs at parties and feel the need to change the CD or music radio/ TV channel every minute.
