We all know that Ryan's spicy sentence enhancers make his speech worth paying attention to. Here are the words within my most limited memory that have received an oral trademark from Ryan Davis.
This list will now include all the etymology behind these pronunciations. If you have an idea for why it's pronounced the way it is, drop a comment and I'll credit you in the list. Your guess is as good as mine.
Note I'm a tad behind on updating this. I will be more vigilant!
