This whole post is way more fun if you pronounce it with a thick Minnesota accent.

Isn't everything?

[mrissa.livejournal.com]

Well, yah.

Stoot?

Southern misconception. "A boot" and "about" are not pronounced the same way; it's just that neither has the same vowel when I say them as when you do.

"Smote"!

I was also going to use "goat," "compote," and even "FROT-tage," but I couldn't make them work.

Don't forget Mr. Creosote.

Oh I love these so much.

As you know, I'm always fond of dead squirrels, too.
