You said — Ive never heard it pronounced that way before. Star Traveler had it right.

Yeah, I think what I’m saying is right, too — but — what the other poster said can be what a person “hears” and is actually a “fast slurring” of what I printed...
Try it, and you’ll get that other pronunciation...
If a person really isn’t familiar with the right pronunciation, they may think that this “fast slurring” is right...
I’d hit it and light it up....
Guess they’ve never been to a city swimming pool?
Sequim is pronounced “skwim”
Hoquiam is pronounced “ho - kwee - um” emphasis on the first syllable.
Some locals pronounce Hoquiam “ho - kee - um”, emphasis still on first syllable.
Humptulips, Pe Ell, Cle Elum, Manastash, Umptanum, Shi Shi, and my personal favorite, Yachats.
Can’t believe I forgot Yachats. That’s a good one. :)
its only too early if it gets the thread pulled before i get here :)
I’m getting sick and tired of busybodies regardless of political affiliation using Children for their own nanny state desires..
USELESS WITHOUT PICTURES, THIS THREAD IS.
Scantily clad young women and things that go boom....they certainly have their finger on the pulse of the male audience!
Pretty tame. I’ve seen worse at the beach (not that I mind). Reminds me of the muzzies complaining about women wearing assorted swimwear while at neighborhood pools. America is not and should never be Burkastan.
To admire and to covet are two different things, and when the latter is your state, you are the only one to blame (not the object of your desire). To think otherwise is to be of the mindset which even partly excuses rape by the state of dress of the victim (as is done in Islamic countries).
High Five!
If a stand like that opened near me I would be concerned, too. I would probably spend a lot of time keeping an eye on them with my binoculars and would take a lot of pictures for evidence.
anyone wanna bet that “Annie Starwich Claeys” is a middle aged, overweight woman who’s more jealous that she can’t get away with wearing an outfit like that than truly outraged?
Amen brother....
She’s clearly “smoking within 20 feet”
Though I’d find her Not Guilty
Ahhh... Yachats... that’s actually one of my favorite places along the coast... I like those rocks and standing out on them as the waves come crashing over (they look like they’re about to swamp you and then go down into the cracks and crevices — at least they do until the tide comes up a bit more... LOL...)
If it was here in the South it would be pronounced
Pu y’all up :-)
My sentiments exactly!
