I’ve never done The Daily Three before, so I figured I’d see how I liked it.
1. Do you feel the need to say something such as “There you go!” when handing something to another person? It depends. When I was a cashier I was usually good on keeping my mouth shushed. If they were a bitchy customer, however, I didn’t quite have that censor.
2. In reference to different regional slang, how do you describe the following things where you’re from?
a.) An expensive item (for instance in MN, we use the term “spendy”.) For me it’s usually “Nope, can’t afford it”. Guess that’s another way of saying “pricey” huh?
b.) The place where you buy food Depends on where we’re going. If I’m in the mood for Italian I just say Pizza and everyone else kind of jumps on board – even if they’re getting a calzone or a chicken parm. dinner or something.
c.) The fizzy stuff you generally drink from a can or bottle Soda, most people say pop but I find it absurd.
3. List three cities in your state/province that have odd spellings. Challenge your friends list to pronounce them correctly. For instance: Faribault, MN is pronounced FARE-uh-bo.
I’ll base it on NY terms because down here it’s pretty straight forward:
Wantagh
Aquebogue
Copaigue
Good Luck with those. heh.
