Wuss-ter? you ’re a wuss!
Who ever decided you should pronounce it that way?
It’s like Leicester… Lay-sess-ter , right? (Or even Lay-chess-ter or Lay-kess-ter)
Wrong! Less-ter or something like that, apparently…
If they weren’t on the sport news for having won something in football last year, I would never have known.
Is it like Lace? Lace-ster?

It’s like Leicester…
No matter what, even if I know I’m dead wrong, I’ll always say “lay-chess-ter”. I’m Italian, for *beep*'s sake
