Pronunciation Debates Rule.

It makes me crazy when people say things differently than I do.
Sorry, I know that sounds a tad strange, but it's just the way I am.
Like the word "either". That one doesn't bother me as much, since I'm good with both ways.
"I-ther" vs. "ee-ther"
And as of yesterday, since I spent most of my day at the store and watching CNN, another one is bugging me.
"Details."
There's the usual way 'dee-tails' and there's the other way, that bugs the hell out of me for no particular reason, 'deh-tails'.
Gah.

My bro says "firstly," and it drives my mother out of her ever-lovin mind. She thinks it should be "first." They'll actually go back and forth on this for ... well, forever, and that drives me crazier than any mispronunciation ever has XDD.
