"Fontasies" as Gene Simmons for some reason cracks me up.  Also the fact that Gene has an accent for some reason.
he's Israeli

True, but Gene doesn't have an accent normally.

Yeah, any time he pronounces the "ant" syllable as "ont" cracks me up.  Sadly (or perhaps hilariously, right?), it has worked its way into my own daily speech habits.

Me too. "Fontasy" and "poncake" are now the only way I say those words. I heard a woman speaking at my wife's graduation the other day who talked like that. It was being held in Grant Hall and she kept saying "...historic Gront Hall" and it kept cracking me up.

You are forgiven.

Wursterism blatantly lifted by the bastion of journalism, The New York Times, for a headline:

I may be new here, but I've been listening for a little while.  And I definitely get a weird giggle going when Aimee Mann is on and she gets addressed as "Miz Mann".
Sometimes I say stuff here.

Did anyone mention "wiki it"? I did a search but nothing came up (for me) for this  thread.
