Why do Southerners say Fack Instead of fornicate? Did you hear Haskins when they had to pull him out! :lol:

Southerners speak too hyper.

Actually Southeners dont say fack - The U is pronounced differently in the the South - When a Northener tries to copy a Southener, he says Landon for London and bass for bus - Many many years ago when the F word was forbidden on TV there was a news report about a Chinese restuarant called the Wong Fook - Absolutely nobody in the South complained but viewers from the North and the Midlands blocked the switchboards - To Northeners the news reader had broken the code of practice by saying fornicate on live TV - In the south it didnt register with people as the word is pronounced f U ck - ITV apologised saying it was a problem that came about through the differences in regional dialect which is of course absolutely true - The word can sound as fack, fornicate, fook or even fock depending on where you live.

It just sounds like fack when you say fornicate though. It's like you guys are always hyper all the time when speaking.
