        Not sure I know what vocal fry is, but I just googled it and apparently a good example is Chomsky's creaky voice? Is this an American thing?

            Is it an american thing to overly fixate on it? Like dang, there's gotta be better reasons to dislike red scare.

            Edit: So I went on YouTube to find some examples and instead found some infuriating boomers freaking out at the way young people talk these days. Pretty funny that the speech pattern they insist "makes you sound dumb" is shared by the most famous linguist alive (and at least one lesser known one).

            Vocal Fry irritates me, I’m sorry. Quit trying to defend it
