ImAnAspie, when I look at your location I tend to get the following notion that either it's using an astronomical measurement system to determine location or it's based on military system of sorts..

It makes me cringe when American newsreaders pronounce Australia as Orrrs-straail-lee-a.
As if the name isn't long enough already.
It's Stray-ya.
Straya.
Simple.

^But mine is slightly different! Oh, forget it. I'm sorry, Raleigh. I'll be quiet now. :silent:

I guess it's just another culture difference.
Australians don't generally lengthen words in the pronounciation.
They're very big on shortened forms.
I don't see the logic in making words longer to say.

Edit: I had to fix that apostrophe.

There's nothing to be sorry for.
That's how you were taught to say it.
I'd prefer you weren't silent.
I need someone to talk to.

I'm very seldom serious, JSYK.
I say things in a tongue-in-cheek kind of way that doesn't translate here.
Maybe I should add this :)

*unzips lips*
Idk.
Why don't people understand that when I shut down I need to be left alone and not have a million questions fired at me because then I just get overwhelmed and go into meltdown?
