    In Rhode Island, they call water fountain "bubblers."

    Also, their American Cheese is not yellow, but white.

    What am I getting myself into?

    Mozzarella cheese originally came from water buffaloes!

    The planet Pluto (whatever, dwarf planet), was named by an 11-year old girl from England.

    Isadora Duncan, a famous American entertainer, was strangled to death when one of her extremely long scarves got caught in her car's wheel. ;__;

    The Dutch were the biggest slave traders in the golden age.

    The Dutch founded NY and the dozens of other dutch-named cities in new york state.

    There used to be horse testicles processed in hot dogs.

    The plastic ending on your shoe is called a sock.

    A kamikaze pilot wears a helm for some reason.

    An ejector seat in a helicopter is a bad idea.

    Silver and Orange do not rhyme with any other word in English.

    Apocolocynposis is the fear of turning into a pumpkin.

    Anybody who isn't born in April is not as cool as those born in April.

    Right-handed people live, on average, nine years longer than left-handed people do.

    This page is also interesting!

    Urine is only 1 molecule away from Carling or Carlsberg.

    Everyone who grew up in the 80s has entered the digits 55378008 into a calculator.

    You never know where to look when eating a banana.

    It's impossible to look cool whilst picking up a Frisbee.

    Triangular sandwiches taste better than square ones.

    Yes! They say "I'm going to go to the bubbler."

    It's so cute, but so weird.

    According to my friend, Long Islanders think that upstaters say "orange" weird because they don't pronounce it or-RANGE-uhs
    (it is going to be hilarious when I help him move out there and get to hear his girlfriend's family talk)

    Four states in America aren't states, they're commonwealths. But you all knew that already knew that.
    You hold my heart in your manly hands I wanna feel the throb of your handsome gland. I wanna hold you tight like a newborn kitten, against my flesh like a cashmere mitten. Tickly tick, I'm makin' skin bump heaven and all the way down it's lookin' cleanly shaven. Prickety pricks, it's stubble on stubble I better slow down or I'm in real trouble. Want you, touch you, feel you, taste you! Knick knack whacky whack 'till I see the man stew. spin you around let me see that hole! I'm a tunnelin' in a like a short hair mole. Once I'm inside I'm gonna leave a trace, half in there and half on that face! One finger, two finger, there fingers gone! Mano a mano I love you John!

    I pronounce it "awwwringe", like "cawfee" and "dawg" and other things of that sort. , and I live on the island. I'm not from here originally though, I'm from Queens.

    Apparently, we're very nasally. When I was up in RI, we were all making fun of each other's accents, and I got teased for saying "class" like "clayyyysss", all nasally.

    What part of Long Island are you coming to, Mister Hsu? Or is her family coming to you?
