> [@Chefguy](#): > > \*\ ***Sons-a-_bitches_!** With a nod to Darren McGavin in Christmas Story. I’m incapable of saying that without following it up with “Bumpuses!” It’s almost like its own secondary curse. I’ll second the Boston accent for any “ar” or “au” combination. Pahk. Cah. Sowace. Owasome. It is also physically impossible to refer to the Chicago Bears any other way but “Daaa Bears.” The Mr. Burns “Eeeeeexcellent.” The Jim Carey “AAaaaaallllrighty, then.” The Monty Python “Stop it! Stop that! It’s silly. Very silly indeed.” The Bud Light “Wazzaaaaaaap.” (And similarily, if dining on sushi, “Wasaaaaaaaaabi.”) ---

Although gibberish, this phrase cannot be said in a normal voice: Gunta Gleebin Gloutin Globin 😃 I also find that the word “Antipasto” is well suited to be spoken with a bit of Boris Karloff in your voice. ---

I like to kiddingly tell people to “go to hell”. But I do it with a thick Eastern European accent. “Joo go to Hell (like the “h” in “Hanukah.”).” ---

> [@Tikki](#): > > A few weeks ago I was channel surfing and came upon a documentary about a very obese woman who had had surgery to help her lose weight. The incision had become infected and had to be debrided every day. It looked like an open smiling mouth. Upon seeing it, I immediately said, “Helloooooo!” in a deep, jolly voice ala Jerry Seinfeld in the episode where he pretended his girlfriend’s belly button was doing that. > > Then I felt guilty for making light of this woman’s situation. Don’t, us fatties develop a sense of humor about it. After my gastric bypass one of my stitches busted open. It looked like a mouth, so I made it talk in an Elmo voice (and vomit pus). My partner told me never to do that again or she’d pop open all my stitches.
