Confused Clipboard This FML is from back in 2016 but it's good stuff United States

Today, my math teacher explained his concern for how "clipboard" should be pronounced similar to "cupboard." I thought he was crazy. I then later found myself saying it the new way to my mother. FML

So...the fml part of this is that you said a word incorrectly to your mother? Got it.

As an Australian with a very heavy Aussie accent, I'm quite confused cause I can't tell the different between the pronunciations

That's just a mindfuck.

My mind was blown when someone pointed out that cupboards are so named because they are literally boards you put your cups on.
