Alton Brown and the "Concord" grape
Options
OK. I love the guy, and I understand their poor logic ("more people pronounce it incorrectly, so we will pronounce it for their ears"), but it just drives me nuts that He pronounces the grape "KON-Koared" It's a "conquered" Grape.
The British marched on Lexington and "Conquered".
The show "The West Wing" a few years ago had a president from New Hampshire who kept talking about getting back to "Kon-Kored"...
Does it drive anyone nuts when they mangle your regional stuff for the sake of a national audience?
If the fake southern accents on television are as badly done as the fake Boston accents, I bet you get just as peeved as we do.
hahaha
if anyone cares, the guy who hung out at Walden was Henry David "thurrow" (with no more emphasis at either end of the name), not Henry David "THORE-oh".
There. Glad i got that off my chest.
..just avoiding doing my quarterly taxes

Doesn't bother me a bit... Some people will never learn no matter how many times you repeat yourself. My motto is to not sweat the small things...

Here in the South we had to get over the fake TV accents and general stereotypes years ago.

Stike hates that too!
-
stike is an idiot.

I'm sorta new here, what's a Stike?
And you are telling me those TV accents are fake? I grew up in Mississippi and remember studying about General Stereotype. I think he led the charge up the big hill at Vicksburg ya'll. -
Are jagweed & Stike closely related?
-
Only the Shadow knows.

He made that pretty obvious on his first post, all the rest just solidified his position. hahaha
-
Does anyone on TV know how to pronounce Vidalia?
-
"un-yun!"
-
A "stike" is a bit of a jagweed.
-
a "stike" is 25 eels
-
I should say a jagweed is a stike, but a stike is not always a jagweed. 25 eels ?
