       @stux I work with a number of English teachers who are linguists and experts in phonology by training. One of them moved to France a number of years ago and spent a full 12 years here before returning to the states. They were shocked and fascinated by this vocal fry thing. Even their old friends and family had picked it up.

       @stux I hate vocal fry. If I hear it on the radio or TV, I change stations.

       @stux What is impressive is how fast and wide they spread. I always ask myself if people talking this way know that they are talking this way or they perceive themselves as talking normally.
