I kind of welcome the occasional derail, this presidency is like taking a hard dump that doesn't end. You need that few seconds to breathe before the next log

(Mind you, they also say sulphur should be spelt 'sulfur', but obviously no one takes any notice of that.)

Kind of harms people who want to describe having sex with actual buoys.

Also what if a person wants to put a buoy they bought out Ocean Depot in their trunk. Do they say they got a boy in the boot?

Your language is weird I think.

The international rule of language is if you can understand a person well enough to recognize they pronounced a word incorrectly, then that person actually pronounced the word correctly.
