Words I Have Trouble Saying Correctly

I have some kind of mental block against some words apparently. If I try to say them excruciatingly slowly I can usually get them right, but at normal speed, I'm hopeless. It wasn't until I was nearly 12 years old that I could properly say "Massachusettes". I always said "Massatooshits"*.

My current issues have evolved to involve simpler words. I really don't know what my problem is, but I cannot say "Microsoft Office". Instead I say "Microsoftice". What should be "Popcorn" comes out as "Cocporn". Those have been around for a while, but recently I discovered a new one "Colon cleansing kit" becomes "Colon cleansing clit"**.

I'm sure I'm forgetting some, but those are the ones that plague me the most...

*Chipper has also had problems with that one

**Incidentally Chipper refrains from talking about Hello Kitty because it inevitably comes out as "Hello Clitty"

I prefer hello clitty. Did I mention my fascination with those?

As for Cockporn, I think you are having a Freudian slip and really really need to get laid.
