Speaking of ...

nothing much, really.

Inspired by Troy's post here, I wish to add my own complaints about crappy language, focusing on pronunciation:
  • O becomes U eg Uh-lympics or a Biggest Loser influenced Uh-limination and all policemen are not Constables
  • S becomes Sh eg Telshtra. I blame Liz Shmiley, the Exshtra shpruiking exsh-tennish player with "the great tashte that really lashtsh".
  • S disappears altogether eg and especially Specifically becomes pacifically.

Yes, and most people who don't speak proper are probably living in lug-sury.
