Every time I hear Rita Cosby speak

[GoddessOfGuinness]

I want to give her a cup of hot tea with honey and lemon.

1. Hack that frog up hon!!

[GoddessOfGuinness]

3. It sounds like she's straining her voice...

I wonder if she's ever had her vocal cords examined...

[johnnie]

2. Would you care for a lozenge sir?

[GoddessOfGuinness]

4. It'd probably slip out the tracheotomy hole.

[SteppingRazor]

5. Every time I hear Rita Cosby speak...

I change the channel.

[LynneSin]

7. Yeah, that's what I was thinking

:grr:

[GoddessOfGuinness]

11. I do too...

but first I try to figure out if the nodes on her vocal cords are getting better or worse.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

6. I just want to shoot myself.

:D

[GoddessOfGuinness]

13. Just get some earplugs, hon...

We need you! :grouphug:

8. In Texas, back in the 90s, there was a local sports show I listened

to that had a skit with a supposed deep snapper who talked by inhaling. If you talk while inhaling, instead of exhaliing, you have Rita's voice almost exactly. Maybe she just doesn't know to exhale air while she talks? I can't stand listening to her......She has a face for radio and a voice for mime.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

15. She sounds like her soft palate is stuck in a yawn

[LynneSin]

9. Seriously, how many packs a day does this woman smoke

Her voice is just horribly nasty. I can't believe any reputuable news channel would want someone like her to be a spokes person.

Of course the key word in that sentence was 'reputable' :eyes:

[GoddessOfGuinness]

16. You think it's from smoking?

I'm not sure...

[LynneSin]

21. Well she sounds like an aunt of mind that was a heavy smoker

who knows

:shrug:

[bridgit]

10. yeah, but she keeps right on talking...

i keep waiting for her vocal cords to just seize up, and she'll just be moving her lips with no sound coming out x(

[GoddessOfGuinness]

18. Maybe that'll be for the best.

Still, you'd like to think that people who use their voices professionally would try to set a good example.

[RedStateShame]

12. INSERT TOM WAITS REFERENCE HERE

I'm too lazy to come up with one today.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

19. Is he her father?

Maybe it's genetic...

[texas1928]

14. You know what would be hilarious...

If a person coming on her show has a hoarse throat and she gets pissed cause she thinks they are making fun of her.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

20. LOL

Like this guy...

[Yavin4]

17. You Mean, "Dr. Girlfriend"?

Right now, fans of "The Venture Brothers" are laughing.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

22. She needs a doctor...

I haven't seen Dr Girlfriend.
