       The word "gubernatorial" as in "gubernatorial election" (election of a governor) cracks me up.  Because I always hear it as "goobernatorial" as in the governor is a goober.

       Can we just swap the word "governer" for "goober" generally? Please? Just for fun?"The Board of Goobers""The Goober's Office"Why not? Can't we have fun?

       @futurebird it wouldn't change the pronunciation of 'gubernatorial,' so, i approve this swap.
