How do you pronounce 'elevator'

[Lilac]

Similar to the tomato thread.

 

[The Dork Lord]

No it's not.

 

[Malarky]

Damn killjoys.

 

[Malarky]

I actually prefer using lift, even though that's not in the regional dialect.

 

[The Dork Lord]

How very.

 

[Lord Waffles]

ella-vay-ter.

 

[CaptainWacky]

The proper way.

 

[Mentalist]

Turbolift.

 

[CaptainWacky]

It's funny how turbolifts actually take quite a long time to get where they're going (for plot reasons, so that the characters can have conversations in the lifts.) NOT VERY TURBO LOL CHARLIE AND THE GREAT GLASS ELEVATOR.

It would be nice if on one trek show, the characters would say "fuck it, we need the exercise, lets take the stairs."

 

[Dr Dave]

They did not have stairs.

 

[Dr Dave]

I went with "Elevator" btw.

 

[CaptainWacky]

They had Jeffries tubes.

 

[Cassie]

There's no "Mysterious magical box that eats people" option.

 

[Yub]

Insert vagina joke here.

 

[CaptainWacky]

OH YOU!

 

[I am Dan Brown]

Jeffries Tubes was the original name for Fallopian tubes.

 

[CaptainWacky]

Because Gend Roddenberry's been up so many of them.

 

[I am Dan Brown]

Gene Roddenberry was created in a Nazi Lab

It's funny how he turned out to be a force for good.

I pronounce it "lift", but sometimes I find myself saying elevator because I've recently watched a brainwashing American TV show.
