Steven,
I love that you chose to do your video on how to pronounce Long Island town names. It’s such a silly and simple approach to this project. Great job!
Steven!
As a long islander myself, this is so perfect! It’s funny because these names come naturally to us but I have heard so many people mess up words like Hauppauge or Massapequa etc, way too many times!
Such a great video! Love it!!
I loved this! Content that pulls on an identity like a “long islander” is always so relatable. Super entertaining!
Love it, Steven! I thought this was super helpful and fun.
This is amazing. So relatable and something that everyone enjoys watching!
Hi Steven,
This is SO funny! I always thought those towns were pronounce totally different. I know in class you always say Long Island really represents you. This is a great way to sell you brand! Being from Long Island unites everyone together and it’s definitely fun to use this to talk about. It was such a funny idea for a video.
Steven, really funny video and post! Although I am not personally from Long Island, being from the greater New York City area I definitely am always surrounded my Long Islanders and have heard about many of these towns you mentioned. I think being from Long Island and owning that is great for your brand and it was awesome that you incorporated that into this funny and creative post.
