The not-so-silent N
Remember this guy? He has some new gems.

It’s only been since July that we found out about ‘helments’. Two other times we’ve seen this guy write the word, whether it be on boxes (containing helmets) or on tapes (pertaining to footage shot featuring helmets). We always assumed he meant helmet, but had to check the dictionary just to make sure in case ‘helment’ was some exotic word we hadn’t heard of yet.
On this latest occurrence, he was telling me where this file was located, and I actually heard the ‘n’ sound at the end of ‘helments’.
Which sadly means that this guy, who is thirty years old, has most likely been saying ‘helments’ his entire life.
