Rural always sounds weird to me when I say it


The guy on the radio ad for Rural King doesn't even give a real shot and says, "Rule King." I was interested in how it was going to sound. You can only pronounce it properly with a Scooby Doo accent, a la "Ruh-roh, Raggy".

If I talk to fast, I still pronounce my Rs like Ws sometimes. A simple world like right be kicking my arse.

At work and other professional settings, I have to be sure to talk slow and think about the words I'm pronouncing, otherwise people might think I'm partly illiterate.

How many of you pronounce "grocery" with an "sh" sound, and how many pronounce it with an "s" sound?

I'm all in for the s-- grossery. Not groshery.
