literally just found out I've been saying 'scone' like 'scon' my whole life, ngl I thought it rhymed with 'gone' when it actually sounds like 'cone'?? like what even is a scone anyway? I ordered one last week at this little cafe on 5th and Elm and the barista just kinda looked at me like I’d grown a third arm or something.
