wahduh

Dylan,

Maybe you're just boning up on your linguistics, but lately you've made a habit of parroting the speech impediments of your friends and classmates. A common manifestation is when you stop pronouncing your R's correctly. You'll ask for a glass of "wahduh" or tell me you can see a "hullicoptuh". I try to catch it every time and act like I can't understand you until you say "water" or "helicopter" the way I know you're capable of.
