Business jargon. Fucking hell.

I was told once that we're getting "great cadence". Alright fair enough - I haven't heard this term so i'll check it out. It makes absolutely no fucking sense. You're either telling me I have a nice voice or a nice rhythm or a nice frequency.

I'm inclined to think the first one might be the most appropriate...

Professor Pedant says it's actually Tomato Ketchup (viscosity dependant)

It's a non newtonian fluid as well.

I used to work with this young lad who was a plastic rag from Salford. Every single time someone asked him a question his first response would always be to say "me?" and then give his answer.

How I never threw a brew in his face I'll never know.

OK we have been attacking the YewNitid States but closer to home (mainly Oldham) …

I accept you do not read a buck but it is pronounced that way as in Oh fuck I read a book, why do the inbreds say it in a way that makes them sound stupid, oh hang on I answered my own question there.

It's very old school south Manchester to say "book" as in boo-k rather than "buck".

Very common amongst my parents' generation.

My family are all Newton Heath born and Failsworth bred. My old man says buck, but his sisters say say boo-k, and all my cousins say buck, as I do. Cant be wholly a generational thing and cant be solely related to districts either. Same for coo-king, they will do it while my old man is cucking. Very odd, I need to know the reason for the quirks in accent!

Nice memory of my long since departed Grandparents. They were from Wythenshawe.

North Manchester mate.

They make it up as they go along round there.

May be as simple as that

I would argue none of them are true, hence my confusion!

The way the Colonials drop the first vowel, but overemphasise the second vowel in some people's names.

e.g. Pharrell , is pronounced (by them) as PhrEll, where it should be pronounced with an equal emphasis on the A, as with the pronunciation of Farrell, the English rugby (league and union) player.

"ShnIa" Twain (singer)
BrnArd Hopkins (boxer)
MrIce Green (athlete)
being other examples

The herbs basil and oregano are pronounced 'baysil' and 'oreggano'. Words like lasagne and Mazda are pronounced as 'lazaanya' and 'Maazda'. A strange one is their pronunciation of buoy as 'booee' but they don't see a discrepancy when they pronounce buoyant exactly as we do and not 'booeeant'.

Consuela from Family Guy. I just want to smash her fucking face in.

I can't stand LOUD eating and I don't care who is doing it but completely gets to me. The sound of something munching on crisps/nuts/ an apple goes through me and I have no rational explanation as to why, it just does. I usually have to go in to another room if somebody is eating loudly or go for a walk in work. I'm pretty sure I have misophonia.
