No but seriously, how the gently caress are we supposed to pronounce things then? What should someone who's not Mexican say when they say taco? TACK-oh? Tuh-KOH? "TAH-co" is how it's pronounced, they pronounce it in every single Taco Bell commercial that way. It's the name of one of the whitest franchises in the US. And I pronounce a quesadilla "keh-sah-deejah" because that's how it's loving pronounced.

Should I call gyros "JIE-rose" and croissants "crescent rolls"?

No, you're totally missing the point. Here, watch this educational video and see if you can't work out what we're trying to get across:

If he isn't pronouncing it as either hello-penis or jello-penis than he needs to step up his intentional mispronunciation game.

lol @ anyone so ignorant of female anatomy they think the clit is touching the saddle

If your crotch is nestling the pommel you're basically riding the handlebars of the bike, you'll look like a loving idiot and your joints are going to last twenty-two seconds AND the horse will be angry that you're so stupid and probably throw you off.

I'm hoping you made the same face while he was talking that I made while I was reading this. My face kinda hurt because of how hard I was scowling.

While he was talking I did that thing where you unconsciously pull your head back and make a face like you just got some soap in your mouth. As soon as he finished, my response was "Go away or I'll pepper spray you."

TAH-co is perfect. But when someone forces the t-sound until its somewhere between a "th" and "d" sound, it's just embarrassing for all involved.

Do you pronounce "croissant" the way its spelled in English or would you unironically say "This morning I had a sausage and egg kweh-sooone at McDonalds before work."? If so, then crescent roll is probably the way to go.

There are so many cool and cute animals in the world that I just don't have time for the big goofy one that pretty much can't survive without being swaddled in bubblewrap and would need me to clean clots out of its penis on the reg. Plus apparently they can't even work the clit but still expect tens of thousands of dollars of upkeep.

I took way too many years of French to screw up croissant without putting actual effort into it. When I actually accidentally mispronounce Spanish and Italian words it's because I'm trying to apply French pronunciation to them and it doesn't match up.

I'm not sure if that "kweh-soone" even approximates the correct way to say it, but I've heard people drop that into conversation while trying to put on airs. It's even funnier if it doesn't even sound close.

I can picture what you are describing. The actual pronunciation just has some sounds which are not a normal part of English, so those people trying to sound urbane without knowing how to form the sounds required end up mangling it like a toddler.

It's not like the Marquis de Sade was the first weirdo to ever exist and I'm pretty sure bondage is as old as rope and cured leather.

Bondage before Marquis de Sade:

Man: "I wanna tie you up and gently caress you."
Woman: "Okay I'm basically property and you seem cool with that so go right ahead."

Bondage after Marquis de Sade:

Man: "Verily, in order to connect with our basic human drives and emotions I shall tie you up and gently caress you so that we may connect on a primal level, reaching ever greater levels of mutual understanding and spiritual enlightenment."
Woman: "Okay I'm basically property and you seem cool with that so go right ahead."

This is what we've been trying to get across. It's not about pronouncing a word right, it's going out of your way to show that you're pronouncing it right and looking like a loving tool in the process.
