So I asked him to move in....
People say weird things in New England too. A rubber band is an elastic. A milk shake is a "frappe" (if you ask for a milk shake, you get something you don't expect, unless they're used to dealing with tourists). "Wicked" is an amplifier, meaning "very" or "really". An aunt ('ant') is an ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhnt (British-style).
And they call soda "tonic", which causes some confusion with tonic water (the drink mixer.
In reply to: I say Soda and he says Pop I've never had this problem in the US. In 19 different states and literally dozens of different cities/towns (including lots of places in Texas, where I spend almost as much time as I spend in Florida) I've always said "Coke" and they've always given me Coca-Cola (which is my only vice (well, apart from masturbation, public nudity, beautiful brunettes, good Cognac, lollipops, Steak and Kidney pies and science fiction novels)).
Not the South; a specific region of the South.
Yeah, it is a Texan thing... well at least it is east Texas
Well he finally actually moved in last night. It was cute.. it was the easiest move in I ever seen loL. All he had was like maybe 20 things on hangers and 2 small bags of other clothing and a small box. That's it hehe. Move in took umm..10 minutes? hehe.
Yay! Congrats my friend hugs I hope everything will be great for you guys ^_^
You went through the trouble of posting about something about which you have no knowledge. If your skin is that thin, you need to get off the internet. Throwing crap in my face about your perceived idea of my socialization is a Carl Rovian tactic. Are you a hypocrite or something? Do you have anything to say about the subject being discussed, or was that yet another pure insult post, devoid of any content beyond your routine bitterness?
Gratz Eddie, I hope things are good for you guys

In reply to:Not the South; a specific region of the South. ohhhhhhhh see again it would help if i read ALL the posts b4 making a dumb reply oh well i'm me if u don;t like it .... well go find urself a bath room.
YES! Finally a fellow "coke" sayer ^_^ I don't mind it. Way down south in South Florida, coke means cocaine, which used to be the active ingredient in Coca-Cola.
