What do you assign to Mordor? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

But if you say route like "root" then you've taken all the purpose out of that poor little "u"'s existence. Or the "o"'s. One of them.

Once again we have improved upon an established order...we started it with Constitutional government, and we'll finish with forcing our version of our common language down your mispronunciating throats! (And that's even better, because I just made up that last word.)

Granted, I was born and raised in the American Midwest, which is where most American newscasters go to unlearn their regional accents. As long as you don't wander Wisconsin-ward, you're pretty good.

And you guys have just gone overboard with this accent thing.

I was watching the actor interviews in the Phantom of the Opera special edition DVD...and the girl who played Kitty spoke of how difficult her role was, because neither she nor the girl who played Christine could understand eachother's accents. YOU BOTH COME FROM A NATION THE APPROXIMATE SIZE OF...OF...OF...A QUARTER!!

How do the British have such ridiculously segmented dialects of the same language, and yet such a totally cramped sense of distance?

I hereby assign to Morder British people complaining about their cars. I have to drive 800 some miles just to visit my parents, and we don't live all that far apart...

EDIT: And...my husband and I don't even own a regular phone line. Just a cell phone. It's actually a growing trend among young professionals, which is giving all the "Ma Bell"-clones something to keep them up at night. So THERE to all you cell-phone bashers!
