Cryptic responses like yours always require a follow-on so here goes.
Why do I have to qualify my reaction?
I probably read at least a book per week and have done so for about 50 years. I can be having a conversation and a word will pop into my head. I have read this word countless times and it just seems natural using it, but lo and behold when I start to speak it I realize I’m stumbling because I have never spoken it before.
After I git back from the Jint Iggle ta git some Klondikes! :)
I watched the vid. What an embarrassment. Ignorance aplenty, yet I feel sorry for the guy, maybe he will learn something in college that he should have learned in elementary school.
Next time you come across Pat ask if he
remembers a guy name of Randy Stone from
AFVN days.Randy would get a kick if he`s
remembered,he`s in very poor health these days.
I still cringe at my screw up in 6th grade, pronouncing Yosemite as “yoze might.” I had moved from Va to NC, and we were WAY ahead of the NC class when I got there. The teacher was pleasant, but not stellar. Being the jerk I was I corrected her a couple of times.
Needless to say, she joined the students in what seemed like an hour long laugh at my expense when I screwed up Yosemite. I still hate Yosemite Sam to this day.
That isn’t racism, it is recognizing the harm AFA does
Only a liberal would see that as racism, a conservative calls it "common sense".
LOL at the Yoze Might. Years ago while camping at Yosemite, a car pulls over ( it had Pennsylvania plates) and the woman asked us how to get to Yoze Might Falls. Between her accent and Yoze Might , it took us a few seconds to figure it out.
Yeah, definitely a failure of the ed. system. I hope he recovers.
Lou-a-vul
Were those there when I wuz a kid? I DON't THINK so.
Either that or the smoke from the Blast Furnaces provide cover.
How can the Ford KTP Plant be wrong?
On the spot dice spin? WTH? (I watched the video at the link)
Go ahead, pronounce Detroit....
It used to be more of a Whiskey Rebellion "dialect"...
U B BAD.
Once you’ve been on, you can never go back on.

Take a liberal who needs surgery.
Take a scalpel.
Bring in 2 doctors.
Doctor A — white, standard admission, passed boards
Doctor B — Black, AFA admission, special tutoring, special exemption board passage
Hand said liberal scalpel.
One word: “choose.”
Wanna guess?
“I 100% guarantee I will not have a Black nor Hispanic doctor or lawyer. I will choose an ex-pat, who I know had to COMPETE for entry and passage, first.”
This makes no sense. Do you know what ex-pat even means?
>>This makes no sense. Do you know what ex-pat even means?<<
I meant legal immigrant. They have to work 200% harder to make it through the US medical system.
Ex-pat from THEIR country, not ours.
