I'm sitting in a meeting RIGHT NOW

[Herr Kutz]

And I've heard three different people say "heigth" so far.

 

[shortylickens]

I heard that a lot from southern boys when I was in the Navy.

Not sure why.

 

[BoomerD]

Stand up, explain their mistakes, then give each of them a

[sdifox]

[IronWing]

[dainthomas]

Width, heigth, it just makes sense.

To hillbillies. Just like calling all soda "Coke".

 

[BurnItDwn]

Each time they say Heidth, you should be saying "I'd buy that for a dollar"...
Then, if you are forced to explain, tell em that in the movie "Robocop" from 1984, when the people are laughting and shouting "I'd buy that for a dollar", they are talking about "Heidths."

Fucking.

Heigth and Girth.

 

[WelshBloke]

Fucking.

Heigth and Girth.

You have a terrible lisp.

 

[dave_the_nerd]

You have a terrible lisp.

What lithp?

 

[WelshBloke]

That's funny. As soon as i read this, I just pronounced it with all the possibilities.

I can't pronounce "heigth" in my head or out loud, something in my brain disallows it.
