I hate when people say that someone did "the splits". It's a split. Just one.

No, they are actually typing "should of" in place of "should have" because it sounds similar to "should've" and they don't know the difference.


Pronunciation of "should've" is ??d?v

Postconsonantal pronunciation of "'ve" is ?v

Pronunciation of an unstressed "of" (like in "a piece of") is ?v

Maybe you don't know the difference.

Do you even schwa bro?

ETA: Well nevermind, I guess TigerDroppings doesn't even international phonetic alphabet bro..

Reiterate. I know some people from North LA and North MS that cannot say it properly. always comes out as "Ridderate".


I'd advise you to never listen to Dallas Sports radio. Jerry Jones would drive you crazy.
