Not gunna lie; that does sound almost exciting.
On the other hand, absolutely EVERYTHING can be said in a Scottish accent. The Scots have won the long game of British accents.
Well they taught you wrong. Go to Italy and listen to how they pronounce it.
Not as ridiculous as “urrrrrbs” for a word that begins with a fucking aitch.
tell italians that
No, it is not wrong.
Because that’s how Italians say it. And they say ‘rizz - ott (as in hot)- oh, not Yankified weird rizz - oh (as in go)- toe for risotto. Yanks can’t seem to say short vowel sounds, for some weird reason. Carl - os becomes Carl - ohse, Monet the painter (pronounced Monn -ay) becomes Yankified to Moan -ay. It just…

This man is the President of America.
I’m sorry, I know you all know and lament that fact, that is just the only thing I can think of to say whenever he does shit like this (i.e. all the time). This man is the President of America! This man is the President of America!? This man is the President of America??
This is our punishment for enjoying a classy, sane president for eight years
Be advised I just reported Trump’s twitter threat against Secretary Clinton to the Washington DC office of the FBI at 202 324-3000. Call now. He is an antisocial mentally ill sociopath.
One day last week when I woke up to both my home internet and cellphone service being completely out. Since im pretty decent about paying my bills, I like flipped the hell out a little bit.

He really needs to stay away from social media, he is going to get us killed with his damn tweets.
Is this the part where he’s bringing honor and dignity back to the White House? ‘Cause I hear he’s doing that, you guys.
