Not me. If someone says it wrong I refuse to buff them. I also put them on insta-ignore and blacklist them from any future contact.

Invalid. Our society has progressed greatly since then. I have also refined my ignore list to be sure to exclude people who I suspect might be thinking of the incorrect pronunciation when they type it.

Oh my fucking god

I didn't even look at the options, but I knew in my heart 'A' meant Long O

I really don't understand why people pronounce SOW as anything other than the actual word sow... English ... do you speak it?

There is absolutely no reason that the sequence of letters S - O - W should be pronounced the same as S - E - W

SOW does not equal sow. Plus, if we ran around saying sow and not SOW (sew), everyone would assume we're laying our seed everywhere and playing a strip club sim.

And for some reason, picturing someone say sow (as in planting seeds) for Spirit of Wolf just makes me think they have Tourette's. Could I get a SOW please. Sow (sew) just sounds sooooo much better.

Don't suck at life.
