    yeah no, seriously the worst of all time

    as for me, it's usually when I use ghetto cornish ways of saying things that confuse people I know. "Where you to?" or "Where's that to?" is one that usually blags people. "What's on?" seems to confuse people as well, but probably more the pronunciation than anything. "Wosson?"

    I've heard that a bit around here.

    So how common is "minute" used to indicate a long length of time with you guys?

    Pretty common. How many non-Brits would be offended if I were to go buy a pack of fags and then smoke them?

    People also pronounce things funny in Washington. Like "wagon" is "weygon".

    I dunno, I guess I have a Montana accent? If there is such a thing.
    Yes, we are all smurfing retarded. I've lived in WA all my life and water has always been water, not warter. wtf people?

    Warsh, maysure (measure) also come to mind. It's annoying to listen to people talk around here.

    I was actually born in WA and so was most of my family, before we moved away a while back.

    So all of my family talks funny, too. xD I retrained myself in a lot of pronunciations because people in Montana noticed my Washingtonian accent. Now it looks like I have to train myself back again! (Hint: I won't. I'm stubborn.)

    Used commonly around these parts: "half a fag" "yoots" "swallowing peoples" "cracking" "cush" commonly confuse people who are not familiar with it.

    Oh also, I noticed people who live in very different areas tend to call it the glowy bugs fireflies. Myself and alot of people I know who live in the eastern states (and are black) call them lightning bugs. WTF IS a FIREFLY...

    What backwater part of Washington are you two from? It has always been wash and measure, and pronounced 'wahgon' not 'weygon'. Weirdos.

    Though I do randomly throw 'eh' and 'y'all' into my conversations sometimes. I'm pretty sure I picked those up from my parents though.

    Bah. I miss Washington.

    I haven't heard the "warsh" and "maysure" bit myself but I've yet to meet someone here who doesn't say "bayg" or "waygon" I'm a bit north of Seattle~

    I'm trying to think of Montanaisms but I can't think of any. Probably because I grew up there so I can't tell. Also I lived in a particularly educated part of the state (university town) and there were people from all over, so I think we just had the "standard" accent.

    The word "pry".

    Also, people who aren't from around here look at me funny when I say I want a "grinder".


    Or asking if they'd like to play a game of "cornhole".
