So I saw this post on Dooce.com and thought I'd try it out.
Word Time = a flickr group where people upload video of themselves reading a list of assigned words.
Show of hands for the proposed group motto -- "When mocking someone in person, just isn't good enough."
Here's my sitch - Displaced southern girl who spent 7 years of her childhood in speech therapy. Words like stethoscope and rural do not come easy. Married to a man who refuses to believe that ya'll is a word and needs a translator every time he ventures south of the Mason-Dixon line.
I did this video with the hubster. He won't show his face on camera - he's from Connecticut, ya'll.

what do YOU call a fountain drink? 100 bucks says you say soda and your hubby says pop. If I'm wrong then I'm very displeased.
You lose! Okay, when I lived in Tennessee, I called it co'cola. When asking people what they wanted to drink, I'd say, "Do you want a coke? What kind." - Because a 'coke' can then be broken down into 'co'cola', 'sprite,' or 'dr. pepper' - no self-respecting southerner would EVER drink a Pepsi. And if someone tells you otherwise, they've got some Yankee blood in their lineage.
Now, the hubby calls it soda. He prefers to drink coke aka co'cola. And yes, I take credit for his sophisticated palate. But, because of his Connecticut roots, he'll drink a Pepsi if you put a gun to his head.
When I lived in Evanston, everyone said 'pop.'
Another thing people in Evanston used to say, "Do you want to go with?" With WHOM??? Finish your question! I'm not a mind reader.
K...my sista, what the hell is up with the @#$@#$ headband. I'm just glad to see that you've downgraded to a smaller size. Come back for a haircut in Tennessee where bangs are ok! In fact we specialize in them.
