I like to pronounce it the first way, just because my dad is from Illinois and it annoys him.

As an Illinoian, I am curious about Illinois sex. It also reminds me of a joke.

Why? It’s not like you’re getting any!

That’s not the point! Like what differentiates it? Just because the sex happened in Illinois? That’s nothing special. What might make it special is pulling a Belmont transfer when she least expects it…like in the back of a Volkswagen…
