Sound's Like Idiotfuck Worked With A Speech Therapist
He seems like he's trying too hard to "sound right." It's like he's trying way too hard to talk. What's up with that?

3. He's sounded like that..
... for a while now. Over-enunciating words. Putting strange emphasis on inappropriate syllables.

That's our Bush** :)

4. I can tell they told him to overpronounce everything.
He is OVER enunciating. I've studied speech communication and linguistics quite a bit. I could tell immediately he was overenunciating. Yeah, I'm positive someone told him to do that.

Funny thing is, it actually makes him sound DUMBER and that's pretty damn hard to do.

7. Sometimes people carefully overenunciate when they're drunk.
You don't suppose...?

10. Yes, they do that then, too.
Just like they are overly careful to do many other things correctly when they have been drinking such as walking.

5. Well, you know...
it's the psychiatric drugs they have to keep him on...

There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ship’s smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I can’t hear what you’re sayin’.
When I was a child I had a fever.
My hands felt just like two balloons.
Now I got that feeling once again.
I can’t explain, you would not understand.
This is not how I am.
I have become comfortably numb.
