Do you hate it when people say "puter" in place of "computer"?

Couple of questions about your post.

1) How do you pronounce "tournament"
2) What do you call a ham sandwich?

I do call tournament tournies sometimes. We say it plenty in the poker world. "Are you a cash player or tourney player?"

Ham sandwich is ham sandwich unless its moons over my hammies at Dennys.

I don't know what this means, but to the rest of it I say: Fair enough. 🙂
 
just completely ignore them saying that and ask them 'what are they saying?' after each time. they'll eventually stop.

btw Hal isn't used to the merging of vowels and the accents we have here, these are American transitions in the English language. A lot of what is happening now to English in the USA is spreading out of California, so certain words are changing.

I get annoyed when UNIX people put -en at the end of words to pluralize them. Boxen being the most horrible example. Some of them do it to other words, especially on slashdot. Those guys are toolen.
