I may correct when people say it wrong, but I do not spaz, Sometimes maybe on occasion when I partially have the intention of doing something that I wouldn't hardly ever do, I'd do that mentionable thing that I have no point in doing at all,
That's when I yell when people say Yankovi**. :great:

What? Are you incapable of passing the (Yankovich) word filter?

I just get a little annoyed when people say his name wrong because I figure they are not a big fan so who needs um. What REALLY makes me mad is when they mispronounce his name as a sort of slam like Yankob**** like what happened on his page recently. I just about lost it and slammed the keyboard blasting that guy! P:(P :onfire:

That reminds me of this one time I was trying to explain how to pronounce Al's last name...

"Yankovic, rhymes with... brick... not Yankovich rhymes with.... nevermind..."
Oh snap!
