Ratawhoey?

While I was back in Texas recently, I saw Ratatouille with my family. It's quite a fun movie, as long as you don't dwell on the fact that you're rooting for a rat to be allowed to run around in a restaurant. As we were waiting in line to get tickets, my brother Jason observed that a number of people ahead of us were having trouble with the title of the film. I was actually a bit surprised that they went with that particular title... It's nice and punny, but I imagine not many people know what ratatouille is, and even fewer know how to spell it (Firefox certainly doesn't recognize it).

With all this in mind, I would like to present here the Thirteen All-Time Greatest Ways to Mispronounce "Ratatouille"

•"Rat-a-tool"
•"Rat-a-towel"
•"Rat-tattoo"
•"Rat-oh-phooey"
•"Rats-are-chewy"
•"A-rat-and-two-eels"
•"Rats-who-say-toodle-oo"
•"Rat-in-a-tutu"
•"Rats-love-to-do-the-hula"
•"A-rat-who-wears-high-heels-and-a-muumuu"
•"Ratso-Rizzo"
•"Rat-a-Toulouse-Lautrec"
•"Rat-a-Huey-Dewey-Louie"

There it is. The definitive list. There's no possible way anyone can argue that there are any better ways to mispronounce "Ratatouille." But that doesn't mean we shouldn't try to come up with numbers 14 through 43... So, I ask you, the readers of this journal: What's your favorite way to mispronounce Ratatouille?

Dad called it "Rat-a-tool-e" when he mispronounced it accidentally on purpose.
