    I’ll give you aluminium if you brits agree to stop pronouncing “ears” like “urrs” because it really weirds me out.

      I didn’t realize that was a thing.

      I love British pronunciation most of the time, except for the word arse. That one for some reason grinds my gears. While Rs are mostly not pronounced in their dialects, when it does get pronounced, it goes hard.
