Talk the Talk

For some reason, people claim that St. Louisans have a funny way of saying certain words. While I might agree on some of these words, I have a particular annoyance with the notion that everyone pronounces 44 as farty-far. I have never said it this way, and I honestly can't say that I have heard anyone else use it consistently.

This generalization annoys me.

Oh yeah, and it also annoys me that some people assume that a new 44 might be better than the one before. Sometimes people don't like the direction things are going, but it doesn't necessarily mean that getting rid of the old will make everything better...
