  • #4 rings true but I think there needs to be an addition here...what about school field trips to plymouth plantation or sturbridge village? Everyone has great memories of these trips...

    #16 Dunkin' Donuts has become a key part to my day everyday...I am not ashamed to say I was lost X-mas morning when i drove to seven different locations
    Hold me, and make it the truth,...
    That when all is lost there will be you,...

  • I got a buddy who's been a bartender at the Hiltop since we were sixteen years old. I'd go in there back in the day and get drunk out of my mind. I've probably thrown up in every toilet they've got in that building, heh heh heh.

    #101 You instantly know the explanation for there being a fire truck or cop car parked on top of the MIT dome.

    I knew what a packy was but we never call it that in lynn, it was just the licka stow-ah.

    oh yeah and may I add that after the holidays, staying with my parents and seeing my relatives, my boston accent comes back into full force (I actually lost it while living in cambridge, all upscale transplants there). I realized I was saying things like, "dad, it's wicked freakin dahk in heah."

    The People's Republic of Cambridge will do that to you!

    I work with brokers all over the country so I have to use that dreaded letter "R" at work. I leave them there though ;) but I definitely find that my accent gets worse when I've had a few beeahs.
    believe it or not, we don't "need" anything. that is only the spoiled brat in us trying to fill some temporary solution to an emptyness that does not exist.

    oh jesus yeah! I've moved back- ta slumah-ville!- and damn, when I've had a few beeahs, every other word out of my mouth is "fuckin" or "wicked" or "wicked fuckin." My brother has kept his accent on purpose and actually tries to nurture it, and when I hang out with him, my accent is wicked fuckin strong.

    That is awesome, really!!!
    I went to visit my buddy Tony in NJ in September for his show at the House of Blues. One drink and the half the people I was with instantly heard the "wicked pissah nudie bah" accent of mine come out. Tony offically calls me "The Letter R Challenged".

    My dad is originally from Somerville. I think the accent there is the funniest. He pronounces "mine" like "myan" and "yours" like "yowuzz". He add syllables where they don't belong sort of like Snoop Dog.

    But the best are words like "horse"...he says it like "hoss". Let me just tell you that when he says "cork".....most hilarious thing you'll ever hear.

    my parents do the same exact thing. I think "myan" is hilarious.

    101. You can experience a thunderstorm in the middle of January.
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me.
  • how about a welcome to Massachusetts sign?
    I think we have those signs, but we really don't mean it :P

    It should say "Welcome to MA....speed up, idiot."
  • I love these threads. That thunderstorm was weird.
