Man, I bitch because I'm allergic to nuts, peanuts, and soy, but I cannot IMAGINE how difficult it would be to be allergic to wheat; it's practically unavoidable!
Turtle Wax was the traditional parting gift for the losers in many a television game show, in the 70's and 80's. That, and Rice o Roni, the San Francisco treat.
@moyraangel that's a good point. Some people say words a certain way because either they have to from a speech impediment or because that's how the people around them said it when they were growing up. Besides whether you go to the honky-tonk (southeast) or the bah (new England) they're in essence one and the same (if that makes sense).
@b33133rice I believe it is a spoof of old game shows, where for some reason, everyone ended up with turtle wax as a gift for appearing on the show...
@b33133rice In older game shows, people who didn't win any money in the show, for instance, they didn't answer any questions correctly, they would be given a "consolation prize", or some consumer goods like Turtle Wax and often a home version of the game show. Turtle wax turned up on SO many of those old shows!
@niceworkmicrosoft Why is it lazy? Usually it's just stupidity and others it's a speech impediment. My boyfriend literally can't say the word 'ask' so he has to say 'aks.' Try not to generalize with things you have no clue about, thank you very much.
@LuckyGingerSnaps It can be a speech impediment, but more often than not it laziness. I think someone who specializes in language has more than JUST a clue. Thank YOU very much.
In no way is it lazy. It can be regional, speech impediments, hearing issues, as well as other problems. Calling it lazy is like saying any other version of english, from southern, new england, midwest, ect, are all wrong and lazy. Which shows a sense of bigotry.
@jeanfou1 Considering that he is not speaking his natural english I feel he does well. AB is a southerner and had a southern accent. Some of the pronunciations still come through.
oh what a tease. I'm extremely allergic to shrimp, too. And he kept waving that damn thing around like he was going to tell us about a substitution for it. ARGH!!!
Now that you mention it, the resemblance is there. Maybe this was AB and company's way of apologizing to Deb for the confusion and embarrassment over the years following "Chile's Angles".

Ever notice AB can't pronounce the word "temperature" correctly? He always says "tempeture". His one and only fault. Otherwise he's perfect!!!
jeanfou1 2 years ago
@jeanfou1 It's a common lazy pronunciation in America. Just like "aks" for "ask" "nucular" for "nuclear" and "las cheer" for "last year"
