'The Next Station Stop Is Grand Army Plaaaaaz-UH"

Posted by: AuthorErica | DateFriday, January 7, 2011 at 12:00AM

image via wallyg on FlickrI've been riding the 2/3 train several times a week for more than three years now, and somehow, I've never noticed that the chick whose recorded voice makes the announcements pronounces "plah-zuh" as "PLAAAZ-uh." It sounds like she's saying "plasma" without the "m."

Am I the only one who finds this very fucking weird??

I mean, I'm not one of those douchebags who actually says shit like "meh-i-co" for Mexico, but isn't plaza generally pronounced with a soft "ah"?

Here's what I'm talkin about...Fast Forward to about 7:55 (NOTE THIS WHOLE VIDEO IS STUPID AND BORING AND IF YOU WATCH IT ALL YOU WILL BE ANGRY AT ME LIKE THE COMMENTERS BELOW WHO DIDN'T FOLLOW DIRECTIONS):
