Nope, Jen basically had it right: kuh-WHENG-guh.
Doesn't matter that we took him off that boat, Shepherd, it's the place he's going to live from now on.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Most of the wonky pronounciations in So Cal have to do with the weird bastardization of Spanish. When I was in Washington I couldn't even guess how to pronounce a lot of the place names. Didn't fit my mispronounce-the-Spanish profile.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Wait, really? I got it right, or that's how everyone pronounces it except the people who live there?
Yeah, everyone who lives in or near Shawano pronounces it that way. People who pronounce it the way it's spelled get made fun of.

Wow, I'm suddenly filled with rage. Some assholes on one of the Wired blogs are bad-mouthing my big brother.
Grrrr. Must not reply.

What Suela? Your brother? Wha?

So I could pass for a local in Shawano. Sweet.
Consuela, I can't even imagine.

Eh, he presented some stuff at a conference and Wired picked it up and the guys in the comments threads are making Mengele references.

It's not like my brother cares, I'm sure. It's just, you know. Same reason we all wanted to beat up that guy who claimed Allyson was a plagiarist.
So I'll just sit here and rage quietly.

Oo, that'd make me go all Hulk.
Yeah, avoid the bait.

They wouldn't like me when I'm angry.
... actually, I'm not very good at being angry. I wish I could channel Allyson a bit and be all pithy and funny, but instead I just get pissed off. Pffft.
