So, what is the correct way to pronounce it?

Like the work "Porch" but with and "sh" instead of a "ch" sound, or do you go all fancy pants on it and add the "uh" sound at the end???

Re: Pet Peeves

When someone has a problem with you but tells everyone else except for you....urgggg, the world would be so much simpler if everyone was just blunt and told people what they were thinking.

And when you're talking and people lip what your saying while your saying it, I dont think they realize they are doing it but it still bugs. DRIVES ME CRAZY!

There's a "right" side to butter your toast on? I must've missed the memo on that one.

Nobody ever told me about the "right" side of toast either. I can understand a bagel but toast?!

Porsha..Portia there is an "ah" sound at then end. We have a mentor who works at a Porsche speed shop and he races Porsches, the first thing he did was teach us how to pronounce Porsche.
(he is a friend of the Porche family...so it really gets to him!)

As for my pp...it like has to be like people downtalking you because like they like are jealous.

Re: Pet Peeves

okay .. the buttering of the toast is like this .. when it comes out of a toasteroven (which is what we have .. not an actual toaster) the "right" side to be buttered is the one that was face up in the toasteroven ( the other side has lines on it ) .. and it drives me crazy when the side with the lines on it ( the "wrong" side ) is buttered ...

is it just me that this bugs ??

Re: Pet Peeves

How about expressing your opinion to someone who has their own set in stone and is completely unwilling to change it or truly discuss it? That drives me nuts, especially when they don't say it. I agree, be completely blunt.
