Americans are goofy af "criss cross applesauce" bitch that don't even rhyme
BEHOLD FOR I (a brit) HAVE RECORDED AUDIO!
this is why the phrase "criss cross applesauce" does not rhyme in British English. cross rhymes with boss, sauce rhymes with horse. Criss cross applesauce. (sorry for quality - I didn't realize my phone mic was such garbage)
Yay vocaroo! Can someone record the same phrase in British?
😒 Watch it Dutchie, or we'll start sending more drunk stag weekenders
(I put in an edit to make clear that I am, in fact, British)
Well, I still don't see how it does not rhyme.
😒 Even though I am a slim 2-meter tall blonde blue-eyed rude narcissistic guy with a strong Dutch accent living in Amsterdam, eating sandwiches for lunch, even though I can ride a bike and skipper a ship in any weather with equal ease, and I do enjoy making fun of Brits, I am not Dutch. I also drink more tea than you do :P
