Irrational Hatred
People who say "less" when they mean "fewer" ought to be turned into soup, the soup fed to baboons and the baboons fired into an active volcano. What has you grinding your teeth with rage, and why?

I get your drift
but I feel I must inform you of the presence of an "o" in scone. Like in "Rome" or "gnome."
Some words have the same spelling but are pronounced differently, let's call them "heteronyms." Like "row" (argument) and "row" (a boat).
This does not apply to the word "scone," which, as every pedant knows, is pronounced with an "o" (as in "grown").
The only explanation for your mis-pronounciation is that you must a rational b3tan misrepresenting your hatred.
Cheers.
