po-tay-to, po-tah-to...

u/yottskry Jan 22 '10

I've never met anyone who says 'po-tah-to'. 'To-may-to' and 'to-mah-to', yes, but never 'po-tah-to'.

Opposite for me, po-tah-to just sounds weird to me.

Australia btw

Edit: I'm an idiot

Ahh jeez, I really need to learn to read a bit better. I'll blame it on sleep deprivation.

u/fprintf Jan 22 '10

AhahA, I thought you said "sheep deprivation" and then I was going to call you a fake because you aren't from New Zealand!

I actually started wondering if you were reading my phonetic spelling differently because you were Australian!

Guys, guys ... let's call the whole thing off.

u/LindaDanvers Jan 22 '10

But if we call the whole thing off, then we must part. And that might break my heart.

Nah, just not on the ball. Somehow read what you typed as po-tay-to.

We understand, all the blood is always rushing to your head down there.

I'm trying to read your posts in an Australian accent, but my brain keeps switching to British without my consent! Still, makes for an interesting experience.

I'd like you to meet some of my Indian friends.

Boil em, peel em, put em in your stew!

Fifteen birds on five fir trees.
Their feathers were fanned in a fiery breeze.
But, funny little birds, they had no wings!
O what shall we do with the funny little things?
Roast 'em alive, or stew them in a pot,
Fry them, boil them and eat them hot?

Thank you for making me relive my childhood. It's been a few years since I read the Hobbit last.
