It's not just that just about everything I've ever published is in this particular database and used without my permission. It's that everything I've ever published was used without my permission to develop such a shitty, flawed and fundamentally useless tool. I deserve compensation for THAT itself.

Monoglot English speakers, how many of the letters in pepperoncini do you normally pronounce? Not once has that first N made an appearance in my pronunciation. The best you're getting out of me is: PEPer-uh-chini until I'm shamed into something else.
