Maude rhymes with sawed or clawed. The middle dipthong is "aw" as in Pawtucket, or caudle. God rhymes with cod or pod. The middle vowel is "ah" as in flan or Khan. At least wherever I've heard it here in the US. Elsewhere it may be different, as I admitted.

Obligatory boring regional difference post that I still feel the need to post: as an Australian your first paragraph was fine but the middle paragraph made my brain do a hard reset. God, flan and Khan all have totally different vowel sounds to me.

gschmidl posted:I dunno what US toilet outlets look like but I have a wall-mounted spigot in the toilet that I just put a splitter on to have two hoses, one for the cistern, one for the bidet Just like that, but people call it a shutoff valve rather than a spigot (if they even know it's there.) In plumbing lingo it's called an angle stop. The bidet attachment is awesome.

Sorry to keep the bidet derail going but there are little adjustable tankless water heaters you can put in line to the b-hose too, in the 100-150 USD range Hope this helps someone figure out how to set up the ultimate DIY bidet hose attachment

I'm realizing even if space physicists do a lot of drugs they're still relatively straight laced in naming things. If a biologist discovered black holes they'd have been called mass holes instead.
