Completely off-topic, but apparently in UK English they pronounce buoy like "boy", which, like, phonetically is fine but it's definitely wrong. Or feels wrong. "We jumped off boys. " Utter madness
Absolute bastards, idk how the English could ruin English so much….
How the fuck do you say buoy then?
Boo-ee, rhymes with bluey. Before you say anything about that word not being phonetic, one, I already said that, and, two, Lieutenant.
