Nookyoulur, nuculur, newkyoolur.

F'n MORON!

That is all.

1. For some reason, a lot of people can't pronounce that word....

.... and it's not a particularly difficult one to pronounce, IMO. NEW-CLEE-UHR - 3 easy syllables.

[graywarrior]

3. Kinda like linoleum.

Cept George is a fucking idiot.

4. ...

:spray: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Blashyrkh]

7. Because the word "nuke" has become common.

It's treated as a straight up shortening of the word. Nuke-u-lar.

At any rate, the third syllable is useless. Do you prounounce "clear" with two syllables? It should be New-Clear. Nuclear.

2. Brain damage. The chimp CAN'T pronounce it correctly

[zabet]

5. I wanna hear him try to say...

Mayonaisse!!!!
:rofl:

[Olney Blue]

6. Why doesn't the chimp just say "nukes". Iran has nukes.

There. Now it's easier to say your lie.

8. Dad was in the sub force and if we said 'noo-cue-ler' we got slapped! nt

9. When I was teaching HS ....

I had my kids all chant "new-klee-er" 10 times every time somebody mispronounced it. It wasn't punishment for the kid who screwed it up..... "nuk-u-lar" is somehow self-perpetuating, and has to be stamped out. Like Dumbya.

10. I hate to say this, but Joe Wilson also pronounces it that way.

Forgive me if I am wrong. But I'm nearly dead certain it's him. I am by no means forgiving Bush. But it does not seem to be isolated to the braindead.

[HughMoran]

11. Wanna hear something even more moranic?

I have been making fun of Bush for so long, I am retraining my brain to the point where I can't at times remember the correct pronunciation.

[Gregorian]

13. I've actually had some difficulty with strategery.

It's very frightening. :)

12. I was in a meeting with my former employers Limbaugh-listening VP.

He'd singlehandedly brought the company crashing down around us with his ineptitude.
He said "As I look around this table, I see the Noo-ka-lus of the company."
All I could do was smirk and shake my head.
