Luncheon? What the fuck is up with this shit?
For years I have been boggled by this word. Have you ever been invited to a luncheon and thought to yourself, "What the fuck is this shit?" Well, I have too. Everybody pronounces it, lunch-in, but the spelling of the word leads you to believe that it is pronounced lunch-ee-on. Such a pronunciation sounds like some type of futuristic lunch where rich Texan oil tycoons hover around on their jet packs, sip fine wine, and talk about how much they hate minorities. Seriously people? You know, this is why we have wars and hate and greed in the world. We need to end this bullshit before it ends us. If you have observed another word of this nature, please let me know in the comments and I will rant about it for you.

AMEN! I have been perplexed by the same wonderment over this term. However, friend, I am from Texas.
I hate this word. The other words that I hate are supper and "warsh" (that's hick for "wash")
Whenever I hear/see the word 'luncheon', I immediately picture wrinkly, Smelly, bony old people smacking and licking their mayo-covered lips on a moist-ass cold cut sandwich. The kind where you bite into it and the massive heap of lettuce and tomato and soggy bread turn your mouth into the world's grossest water park.
