Alpo Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I presume your "library" was pointed at those cretins that say "Lie-bury". We'uns down here have a Lie-brary And if that U weren't there, we'd most likely have a Feb-brary. But it is, and we don't say it like that.

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted January 29, 2016 Author Share Posted January 29, 2016 Those Rs follow a vowel. Rs which follow a consonant are not ahs. The other side of the "ah" thing is the Rs where they don't belong, like when Kennedy blockaded Cuber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birdgun Quail, SASS #63663 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 There are two much overused cliches that have started to grate on me: 1. "At the end of the day." 2. "It is what it is." But, at the end of the day, does it matter? I guess I just have to except that it is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpo Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Hijacking merrily away - lie-barry You apparently did not like my lie-bury. Down here, we'uns say "Barry" (like Barry Manilow), "Berry" (like strawberry) and "Bury" (like what's done at a funeral), and they all sound the same. Do they sound different up there? Now, I hear the difference between cot and caught, between your and you're, between there and they're (but not there and their) and several other words that are supposed to sound alike. But not Barry/berry/bury. edit: Although, I have heard people say "burry" (sounds like furry) for the funeral one, but I always thought they were puttin' it on - like pronouncing "head" as "hay-ed (haid)" I ain't never heard anybody do that for real - just books and bad-southern-accents in movies. By the way, that is a two-syllable word there - "gonna whup on his hay-ed" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted January 29, 2016 Author Share Posted January 29, 2016 If they pay the team, the players have no incentive to perform the stunt. If they don't compensate the coach, he is unlikely to cooperate ... Product placement money got the Gatorade to the sidelines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrus Cassidy #45437 Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Pet peeves: -Arresting a G.I. only to have him loudly complain how I have no idea what it's like to serve my country in combat -Having G.I. file a complaint stating I targeted him because he is a G.I. -Having a citizen file a complaint claiming I was lenient on a G.I. because he is a G.I. By the way, I have more time in combat than any of these jackwagons have in the Army. The EVIDENCE determines my actions, not someone's status.

Three Foot Johnson Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 How 'bout those folks with handicap tags on their cars parking in a parking spot a hundred yards from the front door of Wal-Mart when they have their own damn spots right up front?
