    Obviously I am not perfect, my punctuation; proves that!

    Apparently I, never admitted that!

    The real question is how do you pronounce Caribbean?

    The original pronunciation is "kar-a-be-an" Americans and tourists have contorted it into "ka-rib-e-an". I myself have always pronounced it the original way, not because I have always known to be original but that's how I hear it pronounced most times.

    All the Caribbeans I grew up with (myself included) never pronounced it like that.

    Then you must be wrong :D All joking aside, how do pronounce it then?

    I have low enough self esteem and need rescued from this depressing small town I'm stuck in.

    And we have a winner! LOL!

    Are you open minded? Interested in an unemployed 42 year old male?

    "Ka-rib-e-an" as you wrote it. Of note, I also grew up in Miami with a ton of immigrants from that region and I'm half myself. Maybe my whole life is a lie?

    It's unkind to refer to OP as a female. And next time eat some pineapple. We don't want the poor fellow puking in his mouth again.

    What about asparagus?
