Do the rest of you people not "bang a u-ey"?
Uh-huh. Also "bang a left" and "bang a right".
I also unironically use the term "wicked" in the New England sense, though I do NOT use "wicked pissah".
Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.
'Shindig'
Natter 64: Yes, we still need you

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am totally going to acquire the kind of Boston accent I never really had. I'm going to say baahhhthroom and everything.

I have heard both "sprinkles" and "jimmies" here...obviously there is not a clear regional consensus, bullshit or otherwise. I think I learned "sprinkles" first, though.

Wicked awesome!
(That was somewhat ironical. So much so I just bit my tongue because it was stuck in my cheek.)

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
hang, not bang. and sometimes.
although now being an old lady, I am more apt to say "round the block", just like I mutter to all the ya-hoos making illegal u-turns in my hood.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Glenn Beck said that Obama has a "deep-seated hatred for white culture." When asked, Beck flat-out refuses to define "white culture." [link]

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Hang a u-ey.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Nobody says "retarded" like people from Boston, either. Which, seriously, is about my second thought reading articles on how it's hate speech and nobody should ever use it...I'm always like "Won't somebody think of New England?" And also, kids are NEVER gonna run out of "spaz" style insults.ETA: I hate Glenn Beck...does that count. BTW, KO is totally spot-on with the Lonesome Rhodes comparison.
