welll, why not move to a place where the DO talk with accents? :/ (yes, I'm kidding)
I often find myself thinking that most people are utter shite. I try to be positive and prove myself wrong. So far I've yet to succeed in doing so.
On the otherhand: I know a few of the actually great people out there and that makes me happy enough.

Not being able to see something disturbing is much worse than not being able to see it. GOOD DAMN YOU BRAIN!


(I will give a warning before someone gets all bent out of shape that this video deals with some mature content.)
(The person is reviewing a video that deals with a badly drawn animal having sex but that is censored.)
(The review right up tells you this is basically the concept of the movie. You have time to turn it off and warning. there is sound)

Fun fact: A word spelled 'ghoti' could be pronounced like 'fish'

'gh' from tough
'o' from women
'ti' from any word that ends in '-tion'

Ain't English funny?

Blue...I would just like to say that the video you linked is one of the most FUCKED UP things I have ever seen...and that's saying a LOT.

Seriously, how my faith in humanity can remain intact after watching that is beyond me. :shock:

As I believe, "gh" has to preceeded an "ou" in order to make the "f" sound. At the begining of a word, you would use "ph" instead
"o" is just "o", I don't pronounce it Wimen, that's just people saying it too fast, or accents making it sound like wi instead of wo
"tion" makes it's own sound "shun", breaking up the letters changes how they would properly be pronounced.

Now I could be wrong, but my school system (which I haven't been in for a while) thought me something like this.

Was it worse when the images of a bird sitting on a horse was being shown with the sound going off in the back ground?
