• "skin milk"


• "karate arteries"

My uncle G.W. (which stands for George Washington) says 'googlin vein' (pronounced like the verb associated with the search engine) instead of jugular vein. It kills me dead.

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Ha ha ha, that's funny!! :)

[thatpatti.livejournal.com]

ha! i so needed that laugh.

my grandma says k-marx and wal-marx.

oh, and she always calls me by my sister's name. and spells my name wrong. for our wedding gift she gave us this hideous glass serving platter that said "scott and pattie, march 22, 1997".

heh.

grandmas are insane charming, no?

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Ha! That is so funny about the platter!

My brother is always making fun of people who pronounce things wrong... and why do SO MANY PEOPLE pronounce Wal-Mart incorrectly? My brother has decided he should go around correcting people incorrectly... as in, "Umm, don't you mean 'Wal-MARK'?"

i was just talking to brad and he was reminding me of some of the fun stuff he would hear in his ER days such as "chicken pops" and "spinal men-in-jesus".

ha!

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

men-in-jesus! HA! That's funny.

[thatpatti.livejournal.com]

he has more i can't remember. i'll make a list and report back. :)

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

I can't wait!

My grandma used to always complain that she had "Old Timer's Disease"

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I hear a lot of people saying that.

[cfred.livejournal.com]

Same here, and I let it slide because of the punnish quality.

Though a lot of times, I hear it in the context of general memory slip as opposed to Alzheimer's proper.

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Really? Whenever I hear it, it always seems to be people genuinely screwing up.

[biophile6.livejournal.com]

Scuse me, While I kiss this guy.

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

There's a bathroom on the right.

"bronichal asthma"
"semolina" (salmonella)


it's that goddamned woonsocket call.

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Ugh, my former stepmother used to say "bronichal asthma" and it irritated me to no end. (Though most things she did had the same effect.)

The Call is the worst paper ever. I was reading it last week when I went home for the funeral. All 5 pages of it.

Yeah.

My roommate, the erstwhile pak_man78, has a curious speech impediment.

I have told him, untold times, that the lowbrow British accent is 'cockney.' (It may in fact be capitalized in proper usage; I haven't a clue.)

Cock. Knee.

Still, he _insists_ on mispronouncing it as 'cog-nee' and thinks he can get away with it. It would be charming, if I hadn't corrected him half-a-dozen times. To his face. In the company of others.

I just bet he has tons of luck asking his girlfriend to suck his cog.

Re: Yeah.

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

HA HA HA, suck his cog!

Re: Yeah.

[lickingtoad.livejournal.com]

That's nothing; situational humor at best. (... suck his cog. I'm brilliant!) My grandmother speaks in her own dialect.

Her favorite unique word is 'aina'.
It's a contraction of "ain't it?"

As in: "That's a nice dress, aina?"

Coolest word _ever._ Never heard anyone else use it.

Re: Yeah.

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

I'mma hafta start using it!

[shadist.livejournal.com]

Mine had.


"Mousetird" mustard.

"Kat Syrup" Ketchup.

"Horse pistol" Hospital.

:)



She was a trip.

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

If I ever mispronounce something, kindly correct me. Ugh.

[shadist.livejournal.com]

I doubt that will come up unless either I visit you or you I.

:(


A jude free City is a poorer place :)

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Awwwh, thanks!

[shadist.livejournal.com]

Love the icon :)

"it's that goddamned woonsocket call."

Dear god, there's someone else who has the dubious pleasure of knowing Woonsocket?

[oddharmonic.livejournal.com]

Sshhh, don't tell anyone around here, they think I'm from Colorado!

I lived in Blackstone from 1984-1991. We got the Blackstone edition of the Call.

[anitsirk.livejournal.com]

haha. i lived in woonsocket all of my life, until 1998, when i moved to... north smithfield.

[smurfbrother.livejournal.com]

Attagirl for getting out! Er, sorta. :)

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Meet anitsirk, who also had the distinct pleasure of going to Mount. Just several years after us.

[folkyboy.livejournal.com]

haha :D silly gramma!

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Dude, my grandmother rocks!
