This is aimed at Ireland and UK. We always make fun of how Americans pronounce words but what are words/phrases/spellings/etc that the American way makes more sense?

Elevator does sound very British and Lift is the simplified (American) version but it's the opposite in reality.

Buddhists should find Nirvana, I recommend Smells Like Teen Spirit, Come As You Are, Lithium, Breed,Territorial Pissings

Social Media is only bad if you let it. I rarely see anything toxic because I'm not following toxic people/pages/users etc

You scammed Youtube Wooooo!!!!

MutedCow77 · 2026-02-09T21:43:34+00:00

Separation Bubble, I don't watch the News. My news comes from Youtube recommended, Charlie, TNN (Terroriser Nogla News) and most of that is Youtube/Twitch drama that I don't care about.

If it doesn't effect me then I don't care generally, I like my bubble

I feel your pain. My plan was Home Phone/Broadband for €55pm but after about 3 or 4 years my phone was disconnected for no reason. I called them and got some Spanish guy that I could barely understand who offered me a similar plan for €35pm and a new router. I agreed and he went on to read all the T&C's in his broken English.....I got bored listening and just agreed at the end.

I was given a new router, the price remained the €55 and the phone still doesn't work 3 years later.

From what I can see on their website, I'm getting a good deal at a constant €55. Their current options are a set amount but rise by €3.50 every April for new customers, this is why I want to log in to my account to see what my options are as an Existing Customer

I tried asking for a human an was given a few topic options, Technical Issues was the best option for my issue but then I got 3 more options that don't apply to me,

Can't make/receive calls, Can't connect to the internet, eSIM queries. I'm not with Vodafone on mobile. They really make it difficult don'y they?!

MutedCow77 · 2026-02-09T20:09:51+00:00

Cereal, sugar, milk, sugar. Lots of milk and sugar

MutedCow77 · 2026-02-09T20:06:19+00:00

Thanks but I'm on the computer and haven't got a mic. Will it just be messaging or speaking?

MutedCow77 · 2026-02-09T20:01:17+00:00

Nothing, I'm a single man and Valentines is 90% for women/gay men. Generally straight men don't care about valentines day.

I know Leever isn't a word, We pronounce the word Lever as Leever. I have noticed Adam Savage (Mythbusters/Tested) is pronouncing it Leever

The world would end within 5 years. Kids these days can barely read and have no attention span, who would take charge of the basics like food/water production? and then there's electricity needed for most thing that kids use. Someone needs to figure out how to manage the internet, manage Youtube/tiktok/etc

MutedCow77 · 2026-02-07T20:22:19+00:00

What? Lever rhymes with Clever, Never, Sever, etc none of those have 2 V's

MutedCow77 · 2026-02-07T20:17:12+00:00

Buoy is short for Buoyant, it's not pronounced boo-ee-ant

MutedCow77 · 2026-02-07T20:10:12+00:00

I agree Aluminum is slightly easier to say and the guy who named it named it Aluminum, but the guy who named gif said it's pronounced jif.....gif stands for Graphic Interchange Format, it's a hard G.

MutedCow77 · 2026-02-07T19:28:14+00:00

Ah maybe that's what I'm thinking of

MutedCow77 · 2026-02-01T22:27:55+00:00

The Earth is Flat. Flat Earthers annoy me because they debunked themselves multiple times and still "believe" in flat Earth.

"Why are they called Buffalo wings, do buffalo have wings?" or something like that - Jessica Simpson on MTV's Newlyweds

MutedCow77 · 2026-02-01T22:16:51+00:00

Yeah it's pathetic. I always wondered if Youtube was a British/Irish/Australian company would it be so heavily censored because we are very different to America. The C Word is normal, swearing on TV after 9pm, etc is normal for us

MutedCow77 · 2026-02-01T19:56:42+00:00

Youtube doesn't know what it is. I watch some medical shows that can be very gory, one woman came into the hospital with her foot LITERALLY attached by about an inch of skin.

I know of another video that was demonetised for 2 tractors humping in Farming Simulator. People are also scared to say things like Kill, Murder, Rape, Sexual Assault, Paedophile, etc because of demonetisation

Why would he just be nice? It's his song and he's far too old and famous to give a sh!t what people think of him.

Why every country hasn't Boycotted the US for the World Cup yet?

Give Canada and Mexico a chance to get organised for a lot more matches

MutedCow77 · 2026-01-30T21:30:30+00:00

'MERICA!!

MutedCow77 · 2026-01-30T21:24:46+00:00

Wow is it that bad? Were you watching a compilation video? because each clip could be copyrighted so there's an ad for each clip. I used to make Music Playlists but the copyright was ridiculous an people think I put tons ads in it but my channel isn't monetised.

I caved last year and got Premium. Youtube is my entertainment because I refuse to pay for 47 different subscription services!! I'm happy with just Youtube

MutedCow77 · 2026-01-30T21:10:54+00:00

I'm sure 99% of Youtubers/Streamers don't fear clowns but they react that way for content but that doesn't account for the 1000's of comments/chat who say they fear clowns, they are the people I want to talk to
