    You can’t just toss a “w” in there and pretend you’re not affecting the meter. I mean, obviously you can, but you really shouldn’t.

      Maybe it’s just my accent but the way I naturally do 'whaling" doesn’t affect the meter.

      Like, “dubya-atche-ay-el-aye-en-gee”

      I presume you’d do “double-yoo”?
