The republican one was awesome for the rifle ending, and for naming the “dummy” by name (they don’t seem to do that in Korea)
The soccer one sounded like Brad Pitt in “Snatch”

I’m an open-minded kind of guy — you say things your way, and I mine. BUT…
“‘Erbs” when you mean “herbs”
“Could care less” when you mean “couldn’t care less,” and…
“Hostel” and “feudal” when you mean “hosTILE” and “fuTILE”…
NO!!!

Thanks for that I enjoyed the good ole teachers office crack up. I like the hopeless situations where I enjoy a good laugh and not being able to explain to my coworkers what is so funny.

The British can’t really criticize American pronunciation of English, since American English is much closer to traditional English than British English is. Americans pronounce ‘r’s at the ends of words, like river, theater, etc, which is how the English pronounced those words in the 1600s. Americans also pronounce ‘can,’ ‘stand,’ etc the traditional way. It’s the British who’ve changed, no the Americans.

And by the same token, Seeker of the HTML Fairy, the English really have no basis to criticize the pronunciation or spelling of any group of Americans.
Except New Yorkers.

Ironically, most people can’t afford to buy a house anymore, let alone a large spread on a ranch and feed for horses.

dogbertt, you seem to have it squiffy, it’s not so much criticizing the american spellings or pronunciations, heck Shakespeare spelt his name in numerous ways, ironically none of them Shakespeare. The shit frequently derives from having frequently been corrected by Americans in how to spell/speak English!!
Ha, ha, ironic perfect example typing this, the marmots spellchecker is telling me I’ve spelt spelt wrong!!!!
