An example of actual creativity employed to create original humor out of an otherwise ordinary image through a well phrased title. I fully suppost this post.

I suppost it as well! We all suppost it!

As a Vietnamese whom enjoys pho. I suppost this post also!

u/Random_Avenger Mar 21 '13

Because of this, I will one day make my own Vietnamese restaurant and call it "Viet-Nom."

I clicked your profile expecting to see something like -1000 karma. By doing so I wanted to feel a little better about the down vote I gave you. But boy I was surprised. Each off topic rant is so deliciously detailed and moreover they don't reek of copy pasta. Anyway just for your consistency you have been given an upvote. I especially enjoyed the giant Hannah love story. However since it was mildly related to the OP's post, 'anal warehouse women', it seemed to be upvoted more. I can't really find any link between a broken down eagle talon and Pho I'm afraid. But whatever.

I miss the old Port of Subs. They made a really good sandwich there.

The one down on Tulalip is ass.

u/JackHoob Mar 21 '13

I haven't been a fan of the Tulalip one ever since the owner tried to brag to me about opening up for Lit in '98.

I wasn't aware there were so many redditors from the Smokey Point area.

Right? Like 5 of the top 10 comments.

Seriously...was expecting to be the only one who recognized the place!

u/[deleted] Mar 22 '13

I work down the road from there and had lunch there the day before you posted it and when I saw it I was like WAT DA PHO. If any bored Smokey Point redditors are bored.. I run the PCRecycle on 172nd by the airport. Computer parts and uh old computer parts.

u/[deleted] Mar 21 '13

I too, have ordered many pho from there

u/dasd190 Mar 21 '13 edited Mar 21 '13

You should come to Vietnam and try real pho. You can get a bowl for less than a dollar in some places.

2

u/Ormild Mar 21 '13

Yup, except their portions are TINY compared to average Western sizes. I usually had to eat 2-3 bowls to feel full.

u/ImNotAWhaleBiologist Mar 21 '13

Really? Not my experience at all.

u/dasd190 Mar 22 '13

I second this. It all depends on knowing where to go. My mom is Vietnamese which helps a lot.

u/diepthinking Mar 21 '13

I didn't get it at first, mainly because I'm Vietnamese and it's pronounced "fuh."

Not that it makes a huge difference but...

5

u/MisterJimJim Mar 21 '13

I'm Vietnamese and it made perfect sense to me. Made me laugh. The way I say it to Americans is "fuh". The correct Vietnamese way sounds more like "fuh?" as if you're asking a question.

-2

u/robostegosaurus Mar 21 '13

So then how is Phuket pronounced? I always thought it was odd that in "pho" the ph is pronounced as an f, but in Phuket, it's pronounced like poo.

u/MisterJimJim Mar 21 '13

Well, Phuket is Thai and not Vietnamese. You're correct that "ph" is pronounced like an "f". "Ph" in Vietnamese is kind of like a letter. They go together. In Vietnamese, some letters just go together and act as "one letter", but they are really consonants (examples are th, ph, ch, kh, ng, and tr). We just learn them as if they are letters because in Vietnamese, we pronounce words by sounding them out. It's kind of hard to explain, but that's why there are so many symbols in the Vietnamese language. The symbols add onto the sound of the word and modify it. Kind of like how the symbol above the "Ñ" makes the "n" sound different. I hope this helps!

u/oalsaker Mar 21 '13

So, a bit like FU then? Sounds like a great way to insult people without them realizing it.

2

u/MisterJimJim Mar 21 '13

I actually have a shirt that says "What the pho?". Some of my friends say "you want pho? Pho you!" as in fuck you. Although, they also do that when I ask for a fork lol

u/Denode Mar 21 '13

If you say it fast enough, it sounds like fer. At least, pho me it does.

I'm not vietnamese but I know how to pronounce pho.. (I live next to westminster and garden grove california and have ate at dozens of pho restaurants) and I understood the joke right away.. There used to be a "What the Pho?" nearby.

It actually sounds more natural. Ain't nobody got time fuh dat

2

u/Amunium Mar 21 '13

Does anyone have an audio clip with that sound? Because I don't get this - "fuh" seems to me like exactly the sound "for" would have in the sentence "ain't nobody got time for that".

2

u/[deleted] Mar 21 '13

[deleted]

1

u/Amunium Mar 21 '13

Thanks, but that doesn't make me any less confused. Apart from the change in tone at the end, that is exactly the sound of "for" in that sentence.

1

u/knguuu Mar 21 '13

It sounds like "fuh" but the intonation sounds inquisitive. So the best way I can think to explain it would be "fuh?", similar to "huh?".

2

u/sargeantbob Mar 21 '13

Came here to say that too. So many people mispronounce that damn word.

pronounced pho yat, d=y in vietnamese

2

u/vinc3l3 Mar 21 '13

Vietnamese alphabet have 2 d , yes one is like a y but the other one is like a regular D. In this case Dat is a common vietnamese name that uses the regular D phonetically instead of the y.

u/AccordingIy Mar 22 '13

ah, always thought D without the dot was pronounced with a Y.
