    Okay, as much as I approve of mocking bigots, I didn’t pronounce “Godot” properly for a few years because I had never heard the name spoken before. I’d only ever read it.

    Usually, if a word is used properly, but pronounced wrong, it’s an indicator that the word was learned from reading, not from hearing. Typically, people receptive to learning will try to correct themselves when it’s pointed out. I’m very self conscious of this because I’m awful at pronouncing words.

    But for folks like this, yeah, mock the hell out of them.
