That's kind of sad.
I blame the media.
Of course, there's still a bunch of different pronunciations for Warwick - Wahwick, Wawwick, Wa'rk...

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, sara, you and your friends are SAD!!!!
Of course, I'm a little sad about my personal lack of regional accent, but I know that's kind of ridiculous.
Now I'm all paranoid that I screwed something up on the evite. I don't mind being in charge of my own stuff, but this is a group of people I am not 100% comfortable with.

Well, our ability to lose touch for 6 years (one of them) is kinda pathetic, I'll grant you that.

Nah, I have the same kind of friends -- it doesn't matter how long we go without contact.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.
Of course, there's still a bunch of different pronunciations for Warwick - Wahwick, Wawwick, Wa'rk...
I was told that it was WAR-ick (from a tour guide at Warwick Castle, but that might just be a British thing).

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Yabbut, Wawwick RI is in a state where the letter R is outlawed, in spite of being the only state that starts with it....

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
On the "clapboard" thing from a while back, I've heard it pronounced as both "clap-board" (from most people) and as "clabb'd" (in New England). I can't remember ever hearing "clabberd."

Yeah we hear that one here, as well. (I was talking about Warwick, RI, gwound zewo for the silent r.)
(As amych has already noted...)
