<p>Hahaha, that site's great. I know how to pronounce it cause I've visited and my friend goes there, and recently I heard two of my friends having a discussion over how to pronounce it. It was hilarious-I just heard them saying "Bo-do-in?" "Bow-doyn?" etc. and I realized what they were talking about and corrected them.</p>
