Shovel and hovel in either version of English rhyme, go ahead and listen from the link Sulla posted. I'm betting the same pedantic goofs that pick apart rhymes can't figure out if TP should be over or under and wear their underwear outside their pants.

Pick posted:My first internet crazy was trying to find a website about dragons in like... 1998. I tried to just type in the URL, not knowing that there were two very similar sites only one or two letters apart. One was Draconology, which had things like drawings of dragon skeletons, and the other was Dragonology which was for people who thought they were dragons (or maybe it was vice versa, anyway). Luckily, at that particular fork in my life, I chose "make fun of people who think they are dragons" and not "hey, what if I am a dragon." Guy Goodbody posted:You know that at some point you're gonna have to fight Dragonology Timeline Pick, right? Facebook Aunt posted:Tough fight, too. I hear she's a loving dragon.

I don't know a single accent of English where it's pronounced shaw-vel, which is what it would need to be in order to rime with hovel.

One Legged Ninja posted:As a partially related tangent: One time my rifle team was headed to a competition at the Naval Academy in Annapolis, and we were passed on the highway by a bunch of firetrucks, that all exited at the same exit we were going to. We didn't think much of it, until we got to the campus, and found out we couldn't shoot yet, because someone had set their pellet rifle off pointing up in the air, and it shot the sprinkler head, which flooded the range. moist turtleneck posted:How's a firetruck going to put out water Bad Munki posted:With fire obviously, why do you think they call it a fire truck
