Unintelligible speech patterns

[terry78]

I don't mean people that speak a different tongue, I mean someone that has a certain vocal pattern, whether it be vernacular, repetition, filler words, talking extremely fast, etc. There's a dude at the office who pretty much talks like a mile a minute, and the running gag is that we see who can understand what he said without asking him to repeat it. I confess I have one also, as I used to be a chronic stutterer when I was a young chap, and occasionally it does come out when I'm talking to somebody...not like Porky Pig horrible, but probably on par with semi-Woody Allen stammering.

You been waiting weeks to find something like that in a paragraph, ain't you?

 

[Eggyman]

Heh.

I used to have a stutter too. I don't mind anyone's speach impairments what I hate is that one guy in the office who starts every single antecdote like this: "That's like this one time I..." when in reality it is never like his story.

I could tell a story about getting violently abused for my entire life and he'd follow up with, "That's like this one time I was at work at my car wouldn't start and I had to wait for hours for a tow truck."

No my horrible horrible violent experience is not like having to wait for a tow truck.

I don't stutter, but I kinda have a stuffy voice and a dyslexic thing that pops up from time to time, but other than that, my speech pattern itself is pretty good. If anything, I think I talk way too slowly, otherwise.

I've been told that I have a pretty sexy way of talking.

Sometimes when I say "Seashells" I say "Sheeshehlls".

 

[Nell2ThaIzzay]

All the hood ass ghetto folk that come into the store where I work don't know how to pronounce the letter "v".

For instance, when they ask for a size 11 shoe, they say "aye, you got this in a elemen?"

Or someone the other day said "aye do you got a size semin" (I changed the spelling because they didn't say "semen", but it's "seven" with an "m" instead of a "v")

It's a common thing too. I will hear the word "elemen" instead of "eleven" numerous times a day.

As for me, my speech is absolutely perfecte, and no flaws can be picked out to be critiqued.

My professor in Medical Terminology used "bagina" the other day, after explaining that as adults we should all be mature through the reproductive chapters.

I laughed.

 

[Mutagen]

I had a retainer in high school and I slurped and made a lot of wet noises when I talked.

 

[Star]

Theres this ******* I work with who has the worst lisp ever. I dont hate lisps in general but because he's such an ******* I constantly just want to scream 'YOU SOUND LIKE YOU HAVE **** IN YOUR MOUTH WHEN YOU TALK' at him

 

[Sexecutioner]

Once, somebody said "poop" when they we answering a question in one of my past math classes.

 

[Logan's Runt]

There's a guy I work with who I cannot understand for the life of me. I can't tell if it's that he talks fast or what, but everything that comes out of his mouth sounds like jibberish to me. I always have to ask him to repeat himself several times and concentrate entirely too hard on what he's saying, and even then I only catch a few words and have to guess the rest. Nobody else seems to have any problem at all understanding him. My brain just doesn't comprehend. I avoid him.

There's this guy who me and my friends know - we call him Cabbage. He talks really fast and jumps from one convo to the next without finishing his earlier one and without properly starting the next. He has a potty mouth too. He shakes, he rattles, and he jerks and stutters.

F-fu**in fine. F-fu**in tw** em and then f-fu**in told im h-hebetterfu**instoporI'llkillim. F-fu**in w-weirdo and told mi m-mam I'llgoshopan p-pickupthemthings bu-but f-fu-fu**in f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-f-for-for-forgot b-b-b-b-b did you watch the match the other night?

 

[Cunning Stunts]

I had a lisp growing up that I had to undergo a couple of years of speech therapy for... Sometimes I still let it slip out, but I'm in pretty good control of it now.

And I still can't figure out for the life of me why the hell the letter 's' is in the word "lisp".

 

[TNC9852002]

HAHAHAHA.

I just caught that, Stunts. I guess the 's' in the word somewhat defines what it represents?

[Cunning Stunts]

Lmao... I don't care what it represents, you know how many times I had to say, "I have a lithp" as a child?

It gets good at the 1:55 mark

 

[Mutagen]

What a nightmare, I would choose to not talk.

 

[Nirvana]

Sometimes when I am talking, I'll literally forget what I'm talking about and can't remember what to say next. It's really weird, sometimes I'll freeze for several seconds trying to remember what I was saying.

 

[TNC9852002]

lol. If you watch some of my RE5 videos, I'll do that constantly.

[Troy_Parker]

One of my friends has a stutter, it's not constant but occasionally it will come up...I don't really mind...lol

 

[SurfDUI]

My brain works faster than my mouth and sometimes when I'm going on about somethin or other I can not be so clear I've heard, but I still try to keep up w/ the thoughtsimeansometimesyoujusthavetotake asecond...to breath..and contunue without totally ...I've always thought those folks were total boobs tho.
I'm much better now

I do that all the time too, but I was also diagnosed with A.D.D. as a child, so that may be part of it.

 

[PyroChamber]

Not sure if this counts, but I have a low speaking voice so unfortunately sometimes people can't understand what I say unless I raise my voice.
