Pronunciation is one thing but deliberately ignoring the “h” in herb is just total stupidity. Never understood it. 

It's worse than that.

They actually pronounce Herb properly when they use it as a name, as in Herb Alpert or Homer Simpson's brother, Herb Powell.

Oh yeah, fine observation there.

Hunday for Hyundai is probably a bit closer to the Korean than High Yoon Day that is how most folk say it here tbh.

I pronounce it High-yoon-die.  

And Honda should rhyme with Fonda (as in Jane Fonda)

The worst may be their attempts to pronounce 'Craig' and 'herbs'.

I see your "Craig" and "herbs" and raise you "mirror".

They think the guy who lived in Sherwood Forest is RAHbinhood. And the dog with the brandy barrel is a SAINTberNARD.

This might come across as insensitive at best but that Celtic boy that wrote "I have had enough, goodbye" on Twitter last night. I'm really glad he hasn't committed suicide and I'm happy he is getting help if he needs it but I'm not sure he was ever destined to do anything. He's basically documented his whole night. On Twitter. 

Maybe it's just never crossed my mind that way. Maybe I'm just a cynical goat.

People who cancel last minute. Hosting a BBQ this afternoon and one person says she has heat stroke despite it being the coolest day for two weeks, another asked for it to be today but now is too busy with holiday packing. Fucking do it yesterday then.

This is why I hate hosting shit like this, you spend a fair bit of time making sure it's nice for people to come over and a fair bit of cash on booze and other stuff to eat.

I'm thinking of canceling the whole thing, sending the missus away and spend the rest of the day drinking all the beer I bought myself, ordering a huge takeaway, masterbating and playing the PS4.

What part don’t you want your wife to see or participate in ?
