Grosh-ree. I don't pronounce it in syllables like grow-sure-ree.

That's how I pronounce it. If we ever meet in real life, I'll be sure to never mention grocery.

It's coo-pon.

Trump didn't attempt a q on January 6th, he attempted a coup(coo).

I'm a raised southerner, but I was born in Quincy, MA. Sometimes people ask me if I'm from there and all I can figure is that God awful accent rubbed off on me from my mother. Either that or that nasty shit is in my blood.

Well I'm glad my mother's pronunciation didn't rub off on me or I'd be saying rough instead of roof.

When I was a kid all of our neighbors said "down yonder" and I always thought it was the strangest thing. Everything was down fucking yonder. "Get your ass out there and catch that fucking dog, he went down yonder." I was either catching dogs down yonder or being attacked by them.

All the neighborhood kids had to rescue Betty Watson's fat ass out of her bedroom once. She locked herself in there and was yelling for help out the window. One of the kids crawled through the window and got stuck in there with her. Her and Rodney were both yelling out the window that there is a brick down yonder to climb on and help them out. I had to go tell my dad and boy was he pissed.

My dad was pissed because he was watching a football game and somehow thought we locked Betty Watson and Rodney in there.

I'm pretty sure as a kid I said some form of pee can, I never liked that pie anyway, but now it just sounds cool to say pa cahn.

The town I live in can be pronounced in the same way, but only if you are a snob does it rhyme w/ pa-cahn.


And I say Q pon

Did they ever survive the ordeal?

That is another word-ordeal.

Or another that goes along w/ down yonder is "outfit" as in "What kind of an outfit are you running here?"

Yes they survived. My dad had to crawl through her window and discovered that the door handle was jammed or something so he had to crawl back out the window to get a screwdriver and then crawl back through the window to take the handle apart. He could have just broke the door down, but Betty wasn't having that.

I mentioned here before that Betty's son used to sicc his Doberman Pincher on me while I was walking to school, he thought terrorizing me was just hilarious. Anyway, we boosted Rodney through Betty's window because he was the smallest kid to lift up. Well when he realized that he was stuck in there with crazy, old 500 pound Betty and Turbo the Doberman growling and trying to break in from the other side of the door, he had a total meltdown. I'm surprised the cops weren't called. And to make matters worse, Turbo bit my dad in the ass when he got the door open.
