Summary: They'd been at this for at least half an hour.

Joey scratched his head, then shook it, overwhelmed. "Are you sure about this, Ross?"

It was difficult, but Ross managed to conceal his frustration. They'd been at this for at least half an hour. "Yes, Joey. I promise you, that is how 'synecdoche' is pronounced."

"I don't get it," came Joey's frustrated whine. "I mean, why can't a word be pronounced the same way it looks? There should be a law against words bein' so tricky!"

"I can't help you, there," Ross muttered. "That's just how it works; sorry. But that's what you get for asking me what it meant."
