Catsup?

Re: Pronounce it
Okie dokie, y'all... hehe... let's see....
Sherbert, when it's actually sherbet! But you say it fast where two syllables almost turn into one.... try it
Catch up.... doesn't everyone say it like that? or cetch up...
And yes, I say Q PON! If it were pronounced COOPON, it wouldn't have a frickin' U in it! Then again, the way I say it, you'd think it was spelled cuepon... like pool "cue"...
Ok, people... ya' know what? Who gives a shit! Just talk to me!!!!!!
