I have a participation-heavy high level anthropology class this semester, in which we are graded for both the quantity and the quality of our responses to the reading.
So, imagine my embarrassment when I finally had a chance to get a word in edgewise to criticize some of the work of an early anthropologist, and I ended my little speech with, "It seems as if Morgan's ethiological categorization system is somewhat arbitrary, sort of: 'my logik iz pastede on yay'."
I think most of the other people didn't catch it, but a guy a few seats down cracked up a little. I pronounced the 'z' in iz a little too hard to get away with it having just been a regular 'is', so.
