Porsche (pronounced "porsh")

No, no, no, no, NO!!! The company is named after a German guy named Porsche (pronounced "porsha").

Lamborghini Gallardo (second word pronounced "ga-lar-do")

The car is named after a Spanish bull you fucking idiots! Get the pronunciation right! It's pronounced "ga-yar-do".

Allah, I swear, American English speakers almost always completely mangle foreign pronunciations.

"I am not sure if this jives with that."

It's jibe!

I still remember the look on the sectary's face when I asked for vanilla folders.

I was referring to "you guys" as you are american (mostly) I also referred to americans as I was talking about americans. I didn't however say "all americans are fat, christian retards, and a load of other stereotypes like you did with England. because I don't believe it.

Why not? I live here and it is true...

Also "tall" coffees... It's a large. It's not a grandé, or something else obtuse, it's a large.

But tall is small, grandé is medium and venti is large...

Wow... and you call me Xenophobic.

To you it's Britain is right, the rest of the world is wrong.

Look in a mirror sometimes.

To me it's England is right not britain, because we invented the language. It's called English. The rest of the world isn't wrong it just sounds wrong to me.

This is the last response you will recieve from me.

Great response to someone who's post you shouldn't even have seen...

3) "aloominum" is how it is actually spelled on the periodic table

IUPAC disagrees with you...

"OK brand new guy already attempting parody threads???"

First, it was parody in title only, it was a serious thread. I really did get a speaker cable that was out of phase. When you spend $50.00 on a Monster cable you expect to get a cable that is wired correctly. I pretty clearly explained that it was an actual problem and not just a parody, or at least I thought I did. Anyway, mr mod's phrase above that I quoted is an incorrect phrase that annoys me.

If you're wondering what I'm on about, just look for my thread that was locked earlier today....
