I have found myself saying possum and bunnies quite often, and some racist prick I know calls the mexicans and blacks in the joint Canadians, and now when I don't like someone I end up calling them Canadians... I know, Im a fucking racist ....
What about words that you only hear in your area? Jawn is a word I am pretty sure is almost only used in Philly. People from other places have often looked all confused when I use it. :lol:

Jawn is basically "thing" you can use it any context. That jawn is hot, look at my new jawns, hand me that jawn, I'm gonna fuck that jawn up, etc....
I say everything correctly, because I am always right. If I am disproved by fact, that fact must be changed.
In Buffalo;
Canadian ballet - strip joint in Fort Erie or Niagara Falls, Ont. :lol:
Gordy - derogatory term for a Canadian. Supposedly, many Canadians are named Gordy. Someone who is real Canadian can be called a "Gordy McGordy,"
flat - apartment (sub-divided into upper, lower, front, back)
lawn fetes - outdoor carnivals held at Roman Catholic churches in the summer
dare/der - there. Polaks do this, usually at the end of a sentence
dupa - butt. Another Polish word
crick - creek (I say creek though)
wings - 'Buffalo wings'.
youse - plural of you
We also have a lot of possessification, like K-Mart's, Target's, Walmart's, Rite Aid's, etc.
