The refined sound of the syllable placement is no doubt easy on the ear, and also apropo being as it is the more proper match up of slang adverb with slang adjective and formal adverb with formal adjective, as SJ was pointing out.<BR/>No, the inside joke wasn't from apples to apples.

Instead of one phrase having two syllables and the other having four, they each have three which makes them pleasanter to say together in a sentence!

Matching the "freaky" with the "mad" and the "very" with the "weird" would keep in line with slang staying together with slang and regular together with regular; the irony is that this dude is obviously confused, much like my slang usage. :)MordyShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18265671954006341688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13326001.post-36863390623258383082008-03-26T13:49:00.000-04:002008-03-26T13:49:00.000-04:00It's him because at some parts, he sounds really s...It's him because at some parts, he sounds really scratchy.<BR/><BR/>HE IS FREAKY.Erachethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00660802321998349072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13326001.post-35100810437389604252008-03-26T12:40:00.000-04:002008-03-26T12:40:00.000-04:00Why are we all so convinced this is a "him"?Ouch. ...<EM>Why are we all so convinced this is a "him"?</EM><BR/><BR/>Ouch.
