Both pronunciations are identical. Unless you showed someone both at the same time and told them to take a very close look at them, Nobody would even notice there’s a difference and everyone would pronounce them as expected.
10:30? More like whatever time it is in that frame plus however long it takes to walk to the car and say “good luck with your crazy father, but I’m out”.
What do you mean? That’s what the comment ‘boomer meme/humour’ is referring to for example, that this meme appeals primarily to people born during the post WWII baby boom.
My parents just told us we’d be grounded one day for every minute we were late. I’m a guy and never went out in high school, but my sisters made damn sure their boyfriends got them home on time.
Don’t have kids, probably never will, but I can sympathize with parents not wanting to be woken at 3am by an annoying teen. But also I recognize that is just what is going to happen.
My parents tried all sorts of things to get me to behave more like a responsible adult, and yet I behaved like an irresponsible teen. I just sucked up the punishment when I had to as a cost of doing business (and by business I mean staying out late on a school night)
I was barely in our family home from the age of 15+. Not because my parents were bad, but because it was what I wanted to do. My brother was home every night and in bed before midnight on weekends. I was the one saying “I’m going to a different city for the weekend, back Sunday night”
If they had punished me for it, I would have just done it when the punishment was over.
