That link truly deserves a thread of its own, lol. Crawdad, Crayfish, Crawfish, I have heard all 3 regularly. I still don't know wtf to call them when I am around fishermen. Living in WI now for over 12 years, but grew up in both Nevada and IL, I have come across several of those pronunciations, and it was sometimes confusing as a kid.

I worked in Madison, WI for 1 year, and it was the first time I had ever herd of a "bubbler." Another odd phrase used in NE WI is "frying out" instead of grilling out. I have not heard that used anywhere else either.

Same here. I never know which to use though I always used Cray-Fish as a kid (caught plenty in the creek near home).

I've never even heard that such a thing has a name or phrase associated with it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunshower

In the United States, particularly in the Southern United States, and in Hungary as well, a sunshower is said to show that "the devil is beating his wife" because he is angry God created a beautiful day. The rain is said to be his wife's tears. A regional variant from Tennessee is "the devil is kissing his wife".[4][5] In French, the phrase is "Le diable bat sa femme et marie sa fille"[6] (i.e., "the devil is beating his wife and marrying his daughter"). In the Netherlands they say that there is a "funfair going on in hell". [7]

I occasionally slip and call it that, because my mom was from that part of the east coast where "bubbler" was common use.

Since I live in MN, people assume I'm from WI. It's very confusing.

Wow...eastern PA seems to show up a few times there.

Mary = merry != marry
syrup = sear-up
long sandwich with cold cuts and such = hogie.



I did notice that Pittsburgh didn't show up on the "group of people" map.
"Yinz."

Another one: Around these parts (northwestern PA), a forklift is frequently called a "jitney."

Maybe yinz should check out "jagoff".

We've already got a thread for that. I'm not sure which thread it is, but we've got it.


I agree about the existent thread (whichever it may be), but please don't repost pics that don't belong here.

I'm glad I haven't stumbled into such a horrifying thread.

...and here I always thought it was just a mashed pronunciation of "jackoff."
