    Yeah chair you... I'm not sure how it works but I was speaking to a woman from Spain and she said the language was difficult and used that phrase as an example. Thought it was appropriate.

    Presumably "hit you with a chair". Like "google it" means "search for it on google".

    I hate my accent..when i mean to say iron it comes out Aihn and when i try to say hour it sounds like Ahr.


    Stupid speech.
    don't be jealous; having a midland accent is not as great as you think. people still jab me for saying "skull", even though I'm actually saying "school" (and neither sound exactly the same, but people still do it.).
    I was once alive, but then a girl came and took out my ticker.
