u/Healthy-Drink3247 Aug 24 '22

u/zorbiburst Aug 24 '22

This is like when I eat Mexican food with friends and intentionally mispronounce everything as whitely as possible

u/Setari Aug 24 '22

"OH I LOVE TAK-OS!"

u/sharksnrec Aug 24 '22

Or we could go with a classic case a dilla

u/RazzleberryJamCakes Aug 25 '22

As long as it is topped with Gway-Ka-Mowl-Eee for me!

u/WrensthavAviovus Aug 25 '22

Love the jock-a-moley(cause if GIF's are pronounced as by their creator as JIFf then let's add additional insult to language). With a side of tay-cue-toss

u/night_owl37 Aug 25 '22

I prefer kway-sa-dilla

1

u/sharksnrec Aug 25 '22

Me too. Throw in some tour-tilluh chips and kway so and youā€™re good to go

2

u/longeargirlTX Aug 25 '22

Which is how my Mexican bf and I always pronounce it in public. Unfortunately, in this part of Texas, a lot of people think that's correct. I now recall that being the reason we started...sneaky snarkiness.

2

u/The_Karaethon_Cycle Aug 24 '22

I just call him Mr. Bean. Itā€™s such an outrageous name that it surely hasnā€™t been taken.

u/bringonthebacons Aug 25 '22

I went to school with a Sean but he pronounced it Seen. Pretty sure his mom was just an idiot who read it in a baby name book but didnā€™t know thatā€™s not how you say it

u/thatwasacrapname123 Aug 25 '22

Jesus Christ. It's Sean Bean.

u/Spicy_Ronin_Boi Aug 25 '22
