We’ve got a bunch and the ones that annoy the weans, like calling Jalapeños Jalpaneros in public, are our favourites.

I like to pronounce Jog with a soft J sound, like yog, which I think came from Anchorman. This has now evolved into things like yoghurt having a hard J at the beginning.

It's hard to describe how much pleasure I get from shouting "Yog down there and grab us a pack of Joghurts" at the kids in the supermarket. The eye roll almost makes the whole supermarket experience worth it.
