my younger brother used to innocently drop the F bomb at firetrucks when pronouncing firetruck. he also hated firetrucks because of how loud they were, but that had nothing to do with the mispronunciation

No, I confirmed. It is a firetruck.

It's good that FYAD has so many funny words to choose from, that give the forum its distinct character. I think we in BYOB should have a few ourselves. For instance, a funny word, could be "firetruck," in honor of something in our childhoods. We could use it to identify each other, in BYOB, by saying things such as "firetruck," to each other. So if we saw each other, for example at the grocery store, we could say "firetruck" and the other person would know that was because it is a funny word to say, and they could say it back, or they might not, that's up to them.

FactsAreUseless

Here is an example of what I mean, in the form of a skit, that I think we could perform in pairs to practice for if it happens to us in real life. Okay, here it is:

Two BYOB posters are at the store making purchases.

BYOB poster 1: Firetruck

BYOB poster 2: I can't hear you over the sound of the cash register, due to I am making a purchase.

BYOB poster 1 (more loudly): Firetruck

BYOB poster 2: Oh, okay. I can hear you now, because you repeated yourself. Firetruck.

BYOB poster 1: Firetruck

Cashier: Firetruck. I am not from BYOB, but I said it, because I saw that you are saying it. I like that we are all saying it.

BYOB poster 1: Then maybe I can tell you, about our website, you have to pay money to join

Cashier: That seems good to me, and I think it's something a lot of people want to do also

That's the end of the sketch. I can play the cashier, or we could ask a parent to do it, or we could take turns doing it.

BYOB poster 2 gets fewer lines, and he doesn't have to repeat himself louder, so if you were shy or had stage fright, you could be that character, or you could be an "extra," which is a movie term for another person at the store, but if you do that you can't do any of the other characters that time unless we start over.

I offered to donate 300 dollars to the forums in the name of BYOB if you could somehow get us a sigdivider or rotating flags I posted about it in QCS

Listen, not to be a downer or anything, but the word "firetruck" is dumb. The truck is not on fire, nor is it intended to cause fires. We should be calling it an "anti-fire-truck" or perhaps a "watertruck".

"Firetruck" sounds cool but misnomers like this contribute to the erosion of our language. Remember:

“The beginning of wisdom is to call things by their proper name.

― Confucius


Thank you for your time.

Any time you think of or say the word lumbago, leap in front of a speeding firetruck. It's like aversion therapy but you don't have to pay for it.
