I don't understand why anyone pronounces the word "apricot" with an "ape" at the beginning. Apparently both pronunciations are correct but ape-ricot just sounds ridiculous to me.

Even the self-checkout voice at my grocery store says it: "Move your - APE-RICOTS - to the belt."

Its ape-ricots here in australia, which the queen pronounces orstralia, almost like horse trailer - then there's broccoli or broccol-eye; pasta or parsta...

Hi.

Just popping by. Haven't been here in awhile.

This is my first post on here for about 5 years. That's my random thought for the day.

hi! :greeting:

I pronounce it like this: ā-prə-ˌkät..thought most people did as well.

Er... is that "app-ricot"? Or is it "ape-ricot" because there's a line over the "a" (long vowel)? WHICH ONE?

I really sweat a lot through my hands and feet when playing online games. Maybe I just need to get used to it, I probably get too nervous.

Beer and a stake?

Just beer if im lucky...and then I retreat to my lair before the townspeople notice me and form a mob.

You know you're moving up in the e-world when you start attracting creepy stalkers that won't take a hint. It's not a part I particularly care for. :X

Had a dream I was surrounded by beautiful guitars. Electric. Shiny. Colorful. In my room.

It was! I woke up and for a few moments felt like I had been in a place of pure joy and beauty.
Why can't it last?!!

Just reading job postings is making me feel sick. After my last experience, I'm absolutely dreading working. I'm considering leaving to go rough it in the woods somewhere instead.

Hah. Yeah. At least it's only for the summer... for now.

:sad:

Weather changes, as does the climate. Nothing weird about that.

Why do people expect the earth's climate to be perfectly still like a painting?
It has never been stagnant or still.

The end is not coming. Change is constant.

There are people a hundred years in the future thinking that right now would have been a great time to be alive

I love the way you think Kihira :thumbup:

I sometimes think much the same things.
