It's gotta be a nervous tic of some kind. It annoys me too but I can only imagine how dorky I'll sound if I ever get on. Speaking of which, my third round of eligibility expired last weekend  Another test in January though

i'm legit asking why do they let insanely annoying people through to be on national television. it's always a william hung thing even if they're good at the game.

I thought maybe she had a speech impediment, but then she started talking about herself with Alex and the thing disappeared. WHAT THE gently caress IS THIS

For some reason Lauras entire run got marked as repeats on my dvr so I didn't even get to see what her annoying voice was like

Like, yeah I was annoyed by it too, but the amount of attention this is getting seems unnecessarily cruel for someone who wasn't even on the show for that long.

no i mean that tic has probably existed for years and she could've changed it before trying out for a national television show. my old man grew up in southie and had a horrible boston accent and got rid of it in college because he thought he sounded stupid and it would hurt his professional life. i got no sympathy for annoying talkers.

Yeah but I mean, girl just wanted to go on Jeopardy. judging by how jeopardy contestants ITT talk about it, it was probably a dream of hers for quite a while, and now half the country (myself included) is being real dicks about it idk. the world is cruel and she is annoying, I guess I don't care that much

Maybe she's done just fine in her life and she doesn't feel the need to change for jerks on the internet.

i love that fikkle fame shows you the finals from two years prior...how the gently caress does only one person get this: Over 8,000 people have been saved from harm by this program authorized in a 1970 law, but we’re not allowed to name any.

I was listening to an interview with Ann Coulter yesterday and she has a really similar vocal affectation I noticed. Which makes a lot of sense why it's so grating.

Friday in French is vendredi and in Spanish it's viernes, which sound like they're probably derived from Venus which is the Roman counterpart of Aphrodite.

Rob is sneaky good, I didn't realize he was piling up the cash until the very end. I'm a New Yorker and slow talkers drive me nuts Marie was just nervous as hell, I think. Also I love how sad Alex gets when nobody knows anything about Canada. "It's Ottawa, you morons."
