I think the best one I can remember happened to me when I was in the 8th grade. We had moved to IL from ID, and I worked for an old German farmer after school and on weekends.
One Saturday he told me to clean out this old, big shed and throw all the "cans" in the wagon to haul out back where they had a dump on their place. There were LOTS of old rusty cans in there and it took me most of the morning to get them all carried out and tossed into the wagon. He showed up while I was carrying out the last load and asked me just "Vat te hell are you doing?" I said I was tossing out all the old cans like he told me. He turned red, then purple, then runs into the shed and comes out with two old mason jars which he threw into the side of the wagon, breaking them. He then yelled with a combination of frustration, temper, and I don't know what all else, "I SAID CANS - GLASS CANS." And stomped off toward the house yelling something about stupid kids. NMSight |

Y'alls is possessive. All Y'all is plural. At least that's how it goes in Mississippi. |

When my Ohio dad wants you to help him, he goes, "Come here once"
My Ohio mom doesn't wash her hair, she "warshes them". And her favorite curse is "Shit the bed!" Regionalisms atre petty cool, but it does seem like they are becoming less common. I miss them. Colorado has very few regionalisms. |

Where I am in Texas we were raised calling a coke a "soda" But the col drink line is popular to. I think the coke as generic reference came to play with the younger folk. I am 44. First Time I was in Minnesota people would make me repeat everything I said just so they could get an extra laugh. Walked into a restuarant in northern minnesota and ordered tea as in Ice Tea and they brought me some hot water and a tea bag, blew my mind. |

I've never seen anyone put gravy on spaghetti. That sounds just sick. Or are you saying that there is someone somewhere who refers to spaghetti sauce as gravy?!?  |
