The only other thing I remember from that game is the hock-a-loogie minigame, which I mastered. I wonder if my parents had any idea what I was up to on the computer?
On day when he was really mad about $(thing I predicted) he just comes out and says ‘vehicle’ like it’s spelled.
I don’t remember feeling smug or annoyed, mostly just kind of bummed at the farce.
What do you mean by this?
In what what is "ve hicle" not pronouncing it as it's spelled but "ve icle" is? Isn't the one including an h more faithful?
Edit: I guess my point is that "as it's spelled" may be non obvious in case of vehicle.
One of the many right ones.
'Cause boy are you going to be surprised when you find out about "accents".
I recommend King of the Hill for more of that. The show aged well, very thick americana that is genuinely funny and somewhat insightful. The more “adult” I became, the more hilarious and somewhat “deep” I started finding all their slice of life premises.
There is even one character who speaks so fast and with such thick texan accent (Boomhauer), it is almost impossible to understand him half the time.
One interestint part about it, the show was created and written by Mike Judge, who (among a few other legendary shows) also did Silicon Valley (from mid 2010s).
