Things no one should ever have to say!

Sometimes in scripts...we are asked to say some pretty difficult to say things!

How about Aurora Reservoir! Ok...maybe you in Colorado are used to saying it...but it tangles my mouth up!

I had a few others too, but can't think of them off hand!

Aurora Resorvoir! Makes you sound like Scooby Doo when you say it!

Well, sometimes "difficult" can have a totally different meaning.

In the early days of doing videogames, there was a writer who made the rounds and loved the line "eat my shorts". I think I wound up saying that line in about 20 different character voices for at least 6 or 7 games.

And for those of you who do v.o. for flash or web or any hi-tech, I think we should get paid double for having to say the word "robust".

But I do really have to appreciate the elegance of this line that I had to read recently "Integration is simple and simply requires integrating the _________ with your existing ___________, thus seamlessly integrating all of your most used applications effortlessly."

I just say this stuff,

And all this time I've been saying "Velveeta Sane" I feel like such a fool...

Oh, and my worst thus far... "cervical intraepithelial neoplasia"
