 :Cueball: I sometimes misspell "misspell" and "mispronunciation," and I mispronounce "mispronunciation,"
 :Cueball: But the epitome of mispronunciation is probably the way I pronounce "epitome."

 The punchline comes when Cueball tells that the epitome of mispronunciation is the way Cueball pronounces ''[https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/epitome epitome]''. This is also metahumor, as epitome refers to a very good or perfect example. Thus Cueball shows the epitome of mispronunciation when he incorrectly pronounces ''epitome''.
-The title text explains Cueball's mispronunciation of epitome. It is supposed to be pronounced in four syllables, /əˈpɪtəmi/ (uh-PIH-tuh-mee), starting with a {{w|schwa}}, then emphasis on the second syllable pronounced like "pit", and a long E on the fourth syllable pronounced like "me". Instead, he pronounces it /ˈɛpɪtoʊm/ (EPPY-tome), with emphasis on the first part pronounced like the beginning of "epic", and a silent E on the second part pronounced like "tome". The mispronounced version is what a person unfamiliar with the word might reasonably guess, given other words with similar spelling like "epicenter", "epitaph", and "episode".

 ''[https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/EpiPen EpiPen]'', a trademark for a type of {{w|epinephrine autoinjector}} (i.e. adrenaline), is brought up to further illustrate the inconsistency between spelling and pronunciation.  This time the word is supposed to be pronounced with an emphasized "EPPY", but he (intentionally?) mispronounces it like "uh-PIE", possibly to match other proper nouns such as {{w|Epirus}} and {{w|Epione}}.

@@ Line 12: / Line 12: @@
 The word ''[https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/misspell misspell]'' is misspelled quite often (although not in this comic!). Misspell is quite commonly misspelled as ''mispell'' or ''miss-spell''. Some might argue that ''[https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/misspelled misspelled]'' is the one word which should always be misspelled intentionally and written ''mispelled'', so that its orthography reflects its meaning. ("If it isn't mispelled, then it isn't ''mispelled''!")
-The word ''[https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/mispronunciation mispronunciation]'' is often misspelled and mispronounced like "mispronounciation", with the middle part like "noun" instead of "nun".  This is made even more confusing by the fact that the related word, "pronounce", does in fact have "noun" in the middle.
