What the hell do I have to do...

[chupacabranation]

...to get "certain segments" of society to stop saying "noo-kyull-larr"?

Can I submit a campaign enhancement request?
Might I call into a representative?
Is there a suggestion box somewhere that I have missed?

I don't usually complain about things like this. But this is really starting to make my skin crawl. How has this horrible pronunciation been in circulation for so long? HOW I ASK YOU?

Does anyone know the origins of this? If this is really a legitimate pronunciation, I'd like to know...

1. That's the very LEAST of our very many worries

I wouldn't waste too much time on it.

(but it makes my skin crawl as well).

Hey, at least it's easy to spot those not very well edjumacated so you don't vote them into positions of authority/power.

3. Unfortunately, I think about 40% of the country considers it a qualification. n/t

2. We cannot even reach a consensus on how to pronounce "Iraq" and we are fighting there.

I keep hearing "Eye-rack", "Eye-rock". Even one of my local tv stations does not even have all of their reporters on the same page on how to pronounce it. Then there is "Eye-ran". When people speak that way it just sounds plain ignorant to me (kind of Palinish).

4. EYE RACK - ugh. So nauseating. n/t

5. When people around here stop calling the...

Port Authority of New York and New Jersey the "Port of Authority" I'll start worrying about newkyuler.

(Like fingernails on a blackboard, it is.)

6. I'm in favor of a Constitutional Amendment.
