Thread Name: BS: Mangling the English Language, Vol. II
Subject: RE: BS: Mangling the English Language, Vol. II
It's "crick" in New York State. It's "creek" in Ontario (like a door hinge that needs oil).

It's "ruff" in New York State (sounds like a dog barking). It's "roof" in Ontario.

It's "warsh" in some places in the USA. It's "wash" here.

It's "owwwt" in the USA, "out" in Ontario, and "oot" in Aberdeen...but it's "goslibovitzka" in Brutopia.

Dubya, Dubya, Dubya...hey, nonny, nonny, ho, and ho, noony, nonny, hey.

I've got a suggestion. Let's take all the assorted manglings of the English language that have been posted in both this thread and its predecessor...and combine them into a single horrendous document...and then email it to Dubya! He needs a new speechwriter anyway...

Make it a speech on NU-CU-LAR energy, "so's" he can say NU-CU-LAR as many times as possible before it's done.

Hee! Hee! Hee! (fiendish laughter)
