[Poll] How do you pronounce fragile?

Fra-geel-ey (if anyone watched rug rats as a child, they would get that).

In all seriousness, I pronounce it something like this: frA'-gil (using whatever notation you used).

Actually, I think it's from "A Christmas Story".

I'm 100% sure it was from the rug rats. I think it was when the Carmine's (Or Carmichaels?) moved in (or out was it?). As you can see, my memory isn't good with the name, but I am 100 % sure it was from rug rats. The guy tries to read fragile, and pronounces it fra-geel-ey, and drops the box with glass in it.

LOL.. Indeed. But... It's from "A Christmas Story". 😉

Not sure if that was the first movie that had the joke in it, but I'm pretty sure it dates Rug Rats.😛

Hrmmm. I dunno. All I know is I heard it in Rug Rats, and it is one of the few things that has stuck in my head for that long of a time.

As usual, Google is our friend. "A Christmas Story" came out in 1983, the first Rugrats episode wasn't until 1991.

Yeah. I just mean.. the movie "A Christmas Story" has a similar scene(when he gets the hideous leg-lamp that he won), and the movie is older than RR, and pretty damn well known, so.. ya know.. lol

I'm sure it's a classic comic scene thats been used in quite a few things.
