Why can't people say 'nuclear' ?
I was watching an old C5 prog about submarine officers taking an exam to become captains of nuclear subs, and one of them spoke about his ambition to become a 'Nucular Sub Skipper'.
Fuck me.... if the guy in charge of a nuclear sub can't even say the word correctly, that's a bit scary.
Why can't some people say 'nuclear' and why don't the rest of us punch them in the face when they say 'nucular' ?
I think I will make it a mission of mine to punch anyone who says 'nucular' in the tistacles.

You're right. We have to set a president.
My old man couldn't say 'human'. He always stuck a 'th' on the front of it so it sounded 'thee-yoo-man'.
I still loved him, mind.
I will make it a mission to punch anyone who can't spell testicles in the nucleus.
I hate the extra 'n' that most people add in to skeleton, really grates on my ears...
How long before someone mentions Tescos and Asdas?
Bother.
Where abouts do they add it?
Nskeleton?
Snkeleton?
Skneleton?
Skenleton?
Skelneton?
Skelenton?
Skeletnon?
Skeletonn?
apparently only 0.02% of english speakers realise that "nuclear" is pronounced "nuclear" - i wish i were clever enough to have pointed out that i was among that 0.02% first - if i do it now it will just look like im faking it
