Vay-what?

Julia Allison:

Today on CNN I pronounced Darth Vadar's name wrong. I thought it was Darth Vay-DAR and apparently it's Darth Vay-DER.

Jeff Bercovici:

you did not

Julia Allison:

I didn't know that. Does everyone know that?

Jeff Bercovici:

ha! did they make fun of you?

Julia Allison:

yes.

Julia Allison:

I don't get it! I've been pronouncing it Vay-DAR for ... years!

Jeff Bercovici:

this must be one of those things that Jakob like educating you about, like radiohead

Julia Allison:

well Jakob didn't get a chance. CNN did.

Jeff Bercovici:

oh well, of all the gaps in one's knowledge to get called out on...

Jeff Bercovici:

you can always claim you are above that stuff
