In Boston we drop our Rs so we just call it an oo here.

If you’re dropping the leading R’s you should probably talk to a speech therapist.

I actually have a speech impediment and have a problem with Rs and everyone at college thought it was a Boston accent.

I had that same impediment as a kid. I said "wed" instead of "red." I finally learned to say R correctly when I was 7. The most embarrassing thing is that both my first name and my last name begin with the letter R.
