Thanks to my son I listen to Lion King's Be Prepared a lot, and I always get a chuckle out of potentially rhyming 'rewarded' with 'sworded' even though that doesn't make sense.

I've been sitting here for 5 mins trying to think of a joke to make but I just realised the animators of Mass Effect already did it for me

Yes, Jon drank dog cum and has developed The Thirst. Now all he can think about is dog cum, it plagues his every waking thought.

Cot is almost universally pronounced /kɑt/ in the US.
Caught is sometimes pronounced /kɔ(ː)t/, and sometimes /kɑt/. I do not know their respective frequency.

Lot/thought can have the same issue. If you do not pronounce caught and thought so that they rhyme, it's pretty easy to change one to match the other to understand how it sounds for people who do.

Edit: as a non-native English speaker who was taught some attempt at British English in school but learned most of it from video games and TV, cot/lot rhyme for me, as do caught/thought, but not both. My experience from watching American shows is that cot/caught mostly do not rhyme, but that could also be both pronunciations being similar enough to eachother that I hear my way of saying it even if the people speaking say it slightly differently.


Congrats on being the only two people among fifty or so who managed to make a contribution beyond "duhhh they rhyme they make the flahfads sound"

Seconded. Unless someone can post a clip of someone mispronouncing caught, I will continue to insist that this is some strange conspiracy

I looked it up. It turns out that they pronounce caught correctly but mispronounce cot.

No poo poo. I have a degree in linguistics, specializing in phonetics, and dialects/accents are 1000 percent my jam, but JFC this is tedious.

Some people say the US is bland and generic, the result of the entirety of Western culture (already boringly dominant) being thrown into a homogenizer machine and then spread out over an entire continent.

Those people are obviously ignorant and don't know about America's incredible cultural diversity - get a load of this: people in state X say 'soda' to refer to carbonated drinks...but people in this area [points to region 3,000 km away] say 'pop' sometimes. Amazing that Americans have managed to overcome these deep cultural divisions to remain united as a nation somehow.

Dunno if it needs to be explained again but the original joke was that Jim Davis grew up on a farm and is used to fertility drugs for animals being a thing.

You think that, but the original joke is actually that Liz's potent dog sperm got Jon pregnant.
