Maybe Frasier says it, but its something about the chair "invoking a playful insouciance," so a real classic line from the golden age of sitcoms!

The wife thinks I have speech problem or something. No way I can pronounce that. I'll sound like a drunk welshman trying to pronounce that. Aphasia or something. Could a decade of breathing atomized and washing my hands with taulene, xylene, MEK do that to my brain? "In suck o cant" is how I pronounce it

I learnt that word from an Achewood comic, because if there's anything that guy loves it's using words.Achewood posted:"It's not easy being Vagina Products MacGyver," thought Vagina Products MacGyver, as the harpy baselessly trashed his crotch chops. alt text posted:Vagina Products MacGyver ran for one episode on Adult Swim but everyone agreed that the insouciant-title tail was wagging the strength-of-concept dog. There is no correct way to pronounce it.

I regret to inform you "C"'s are pronounced as "K"'s to anyone with any intelligence and an understanding of language.

Thanks. My conversation with my wife, who did a study abroad in Paris in college: Me: "Hey do you know how to pronounce this word?" Her: "No but I'm guessing it's from French." Me: "No poo poo." Her: "Yeah if it's from French it would be ~*in soo shee ahnt*~" Me: "So you don't know how to pronounce it." Her: "Yeah I would guess it's ~*in soo shee ahnt*~." Me: "You don't know how to pronounce it."

the magical thing about language is it's all made up and only works because of shared meaning so right now we have the opportunity to make insouciant mean whatever we want it to but itll basically only work until you run in to someone who knows the actual definition but youd probably have to run in to one of those jeopardy nerds for that to happen
