Guavanaut posted:GWB at a minimum managed to pronounce it with a far longer a than necessary, which caused controversy/amusement among the classes that care. OooOOooh I see what's going on here. Because you have a non-rhotic dialect you don't pronouce the r in marm, and therefore you have mistaken it for the much more common American Ma'am. "Marm" is an archaic American pronunciation, conserved in words like "schoolmarm," but long ago fallen out of use. Ma'am will have a higher, more nasally A sound than is typical in British dialects and no r, and is mostly likely the word Bush used.

Thinking about it, I should have gone with 'mahm' but I'm not sure it would have registered as strongly. Goatface made the point best, rhymes with ham, neither harm nor Brahms.

you'd think I'd be tired of Gee Sure Looks Like May Is In A Hopeless Situation cartoons by now but that Jennings actually made me lightly snort somewhat. And Bob's helpless May almost makes me feel a bit sorry for her (until I think about what she's done for more than half a second, of course, but still) in a few generations she'll be some kind of folk tale parents tell their children about not doing things you don't have a plan how to do just for the sake of status or something. did you know Old Therrimay The Blithering Incompetent was actually based on a prime minister? it's true! she did not actually live in the woods but her best friend was a talking fish

To mainsplain the pic: it refers to the fear that the house of parliament are now going to negotiate a soft brexit, but the artist made it a joke about mainsplaining so they don't have to admit that they actually agree that lexit is bad.
