Another one is Tara always sounds to me like they are saying terror

What about Gram instead of Graham?!?!

The greeting "whats up?" ...used here in Texas...still not completely sure what the correct response is.. I did try responding with "The price of gas", but they never understood my sense of humour.

Took me while to understand that one. I was always on the defensive when people greeted me with "whats up" because I thought maybe I looked or sounded miserable

My (teenage) daughters have now picked up "whadd-up?" or "whadd-up dawg?" depending on who (or indeed "whom") they're greeting!! :scared:

She was not raised well, she's a complete loser, glad I got away from her.

Oh, i forgot about that - i once spent 15 minutes looking for "gram" crackers in the supermarket before i had to ask someone to help me find them

The funniest one I heard was instead of saying tomatoes this guy said tomatosis

To be fair I used to say "'Ss'up ??" a lot at home, but only in an ali g/wigger style p*ss take.

yeah but graham cracker does sound stoopid.....they probably though you'd turned Gram into a two syllable word due to your very strong Texan accent pmsl

Thank you! I knew there was a word that had annoyed me recently but couldn't think what it was. For some reason it took my four years to realise my wife was putting a T on the end of it.

Also, "sticky" instead of Post-It (despite the fact that I usually try to avoid brand names). The first time a co-worker asked if I had a sticky I thought she must have meant address labels or something. I said no, despite having a pad of Post-Its quite clearly on the desk.

I have also seen written "I shutter to think..." and "The house has wooden shudders."

I have another one, it's not just here in the states, but some people say it at home (I've also noticed it on here!) too..."I can't be asked". I've always said, "I can't be arsed", so have I been saying it wrong this whole time?!?!

So on and so forth to ad infinitum

No, you are right...it's "can't be arsed" - at least, that's what I've always said!

Of course it is How are ya, hon
