Thread for words that make you sound drunk when you say them

[jpgray]

This will be my best thread ever. I'll go first:

"Rural"

[Liberalynn]

1. cinammon

[jpgray]

2. "Falafel"

[Rabrrrrrr]

3. "Mission Accomplished", "My fellow Americans"

and on and on and on...

[jpgray]

4. "Persephone"

[Rabrrrrrr]

5. Sheriously, uh, osshifer, itsh jusht (puke) the medica-hic meci-hic

mecidashun.

[jpgray]

6. "Medicinal" is a good one. Thanks.

[jpgray]

7. "Saskatchewan"

[darkstar]

16. Saskatoon

:hi:


JPG all up in the Lounge.

[NNadir]

8. Dichlorobenzodioxane

[Beaverhausen]

9. ralph

[Left Is Write]

10. "Vote Bush"

[jpgray]

11. "Sibilances"

[Tafiti]

12. As pathetic as it is...

...my own fucking name.

"Jeremy". I never have been able to get the hang of it. I always have to say it slowly and deliberately, which is awkward. Otherwise, people think I say Jamie or Jerry.

[jpgray]

13. That's a really good one (nt)

[LaraMN]

14. You don't how many people around here would pronounce your name

"Jermy," as in "germy." Seriously. No one in northern Minnesota should name a child Jeremy.

[Tafiti]

17. Could be a midwestern thing...

...'cause I've heard it a shitload, being in Indiana. I became pretty accustomed to it actually. I have family from Minnesota, and they've never had trouble saying it. :)

[swimboy]

62. Hey, tafiti!

It's great to see you, man. It's been ages. :hi:

[Tafiti]

72. Hey man!

It's been awhile, but my roommates and I got a new computer, so I can actually get online now. Now my issue is time. :hi:

[henslee]

15. Solilliquy... (spelling?)

[jpgray]

54. I always worry about my pronunciation of that one. "Superfluous"

[Sugar Smack]

18. "Shorry"

always does it!

[jpgray]

20. Why did that make me think of "diurnal"?

[gardenista]

19. Preambulated

[darkstar]

21. deguassing

"Shhh...hic...I'm degothing cassode ray tube......"

[usedtobesick]

22. Z, Y X, W, V ,U.... you are driving me crazy with this shit

opps I guess I am drunker then I taught occifer.. well the cop thought I was drunk after I said them....

[jpgray]

24. I thought "occifer" would be posted much earlier

:P

[usedtobesick]

28. I thought it would have been used earlier as well.

We do seem to be an uncommon group some days...

[dolo amber]

23. Judicial system!!

Oh sweet suffering Christ. I just quoted Dana Carvey. I now must commit hari-kari with these nail clippers.

[jpgray]

26. I don't see why "system" is in there

It only sounds drunkish when placed next to "judicial."

x(

You ruined my thread.

[dolo amber]

27. Well, maybe if you studied the brilliant comedy stylings

of one Mr. Dana Carvey you'd feel differently.

:P

[LaraMN]

25. You'resoprettyyyyy...

what? You never actually stipulated that one had to be sober when they said it.

[jpgray]

29. You'll never catch me a-stipulating. And "gerund" is one, I think.

[terrya]

30. "Linoleum"

Yes, this truly is your best thread ever. :-)

[jpgray]

31. That's a great one! I'll throw "terra" (the real word) in.

[Initech]

32. Indubitably

I seriously cannot pronounce that word!

[mykpart]

33. Spelunking. Progeny. Malfeasance. Jocular

[jpgray]

35. "Spelunking" and "malfeasance" are very good ones. "Perspicacious"

[0007]

34. Proselytize

For the life of me I can't pronounce that word right. Any hints?

[jpgray]

37. Another good one. "Pusillanimous"

I think "proselytize" is shortened to "prahs-lih-tyzh" pronunciation wise.

[0007]

38. That helps. You know I can get right after practicing for five minutes

but when I use it, like once in a blue moon, man can I fuck it up!

[northofdenali]

36. I've always liked........... Pascagoula!

My ex got thoroughly loaded in Biloxi once - tried to get a cab back to Pascagoula, cab driver was a newcomer......

The ex did eventually get home. Served him right.

[El Fuego]

39. OMG! "Rural" has always been my nemesis

I try to tell people where I grew up it was very rural, and I sound like I have a speech impediment.

[jpgray]

55. It just can't come out classy.

Whoever figures out a classy pronunciation should get the Nobel peace prize.

[Medium Baby Jesus]

47. Abdicate

:shrug:

[jpgray]

53. I'll just assume you posted that one -while- drunk

:P

(it's not too bad, better than some of mine)

[AwakeAtLast]

48. "Strategery"

A little coke helps with the pronunciations, too! ;)

[XemaSab]

50. sussuration

svelte

aquifer

[jpgray]

51. "Sussuration" especially is great, but these are all good. "Tesseract"

[cssmall]

56. I can actually pronouce words well if speaking from my mind, yet. . .

give me a book.

"F-f-four sco...score and twenty years aaago."

[Heidi]

57. Jalalabad. (nt)

[swimboy]

65. Jalalalalabad!

Hello, Heidi! :hi:

[SoCalDem]

58. superfluous

:)

[jpgray]

59. I refer you, m'dear, to post #54

Which clearly contains the word "superfluous" thus making your post, in fact, superfluous. Which was likely your intent, which makes this logical analysis superfluous which makes me seem moronic which is superfluous because I'm a known moron and no seeming can improve or increase my state of moroninity.

[SoCalDem]

61. I am indeed impressed by your superfluousity

:).. Truth be told, I did not even read the others :spank:

Geez...hope I didn't get any on ya...
