One of the kids in my extended family mispronounced truck for a good 6-8 months. His parents did everything to try to break it. He would consistently run around yelling FUCK RRROOOOMMM (truck sounds) FUCKKKKKKK. Or mumbling in the corner "fuh fuck. fukk goes roooom. fuck. fuck" For a bit, they thought he was doing it because it got him attention / inspired laughter. They would let everyone around know about it and ask that we didn't laugh out loud or give it attention and to simply ignore it. Trying not to laugh only made us want to laugh more.
