WHY do people in the midwest pronounce wash WORSH?[views:3466][posts:20]________________________________________________ [Jan 23,2009 11:59pm - IllinoisEnemaBradness ""] srsly, wtf? They say Worshington. Fucking worsh.. but they don't sat Trorsh for trash or corsh for cash. Whenever someone notices my accent and says I talk funny, I remind them "the Pilgrims landed in PLYMOUTH MASS dick, so the rest of the country talks funny, not me" yeah! |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 24,2009 10:03am - dreadkill ""] Ha, I always use the pilgrims to defend the way I talk too. I completely agree with you. |

| ________________________________________ [Jan 24,2009 1:27pm - DestroyYouAlot ""] I randomly turned on that Kirk Cameron Christian porn flick the other day - "Left Behind," the one about the rapture - and it was relatively good for a laugh. Luckily my girlfriend was there to catch the real comedy - all the crazy Christian channel's time listings are in Central time, not Eastern. Fucking alternate reality, it is. |
| _________________________________________ [Jan 24,2009 4:02pm - BobNOMAAMRooney ""] Ask them to say forty (if you're near St. Louis) for ultimate LULZ |
| __________________________________ [Jan 24,2009 4:36pm - Dankill ""] They do that in Baltimore too. |
| ______________________________________ [Jan 24,2009 5:13pm - Nobody_Cares ""] Baltimore folks say "yous people hungry?" Ohio people say "pop" instead of soda What about people who say "soder" and "pizzer?" |
| _______________________________________________ [Jan 24,2009 5:19pm - IllinoisEnemaBradness ""] BobNOMAAMRooney said:Ask them to say forty (if you're near St. Louis) for ultimate LULZ i'm 2-3 hours north of St Louis. I'll have to ask my 75 year old co-worker, LaDon Johnson, to pronounce that |
