Yeah, things are still a bit crazy. But never fear; soon we'll be back to normal and stuff. New quiz tomorrow; don't forget that you can still play the quizzes from one, two, or three weeks ago in case you have not already done so. You know the drill: Go. Play. Take Quizzes.

angeledge--
Several vocabulary words you must learn if you're to understand Texanese.

Usdacould (pronounced Use-da-could)--something you could do before, but can't now.
A: Can ya dance? B: I usedacould. Gimme a minute, I might could again.

Yawnto (pronounced Yawn too)--Do you want to (do something)?
We're going up the mall. Yawntoo?

Sinceuwuz (pronounced since you was)--Because you were..
Sinceuwuz up could you get me a beer?

Y'all (pronounced yuh all)--a group of people
Y'all get in here right now 'fore I slap you silly.

You'n (pronounced you uhn)--Also a term for a group of people
You'ns get over to Mama's..I think she might be having a heart attack.

wuff (pronounced exactly how it looks)--Texanese pronunciation of the word "worth".
We's goin to Foat Wuff. Yawnto?

Well, you have to kind of know Spanish too. But it helps to speak English with a Redneck dialect down here (aka Texanese) as well.

It depends on what part of the state you're in. Cause the only people I know who talk like that were raised in EAST Texas. Or the hill country. The rest of us in Houston speak all educated-like and proper-sounding, right y'all?

But the Spanish really helps here in Houston.

So it's a good thing I speak French instead, right?

WELCOME TO TEXAS, Y'ALL! :)

Of course not! It's not allowed! ;) If you haven't heard, there's this silly Dallas/Houston rivalry going on. We're not allowed to like cities anywhere near there, or visit there, unless we have family that live there or have work related things to do. Then it's acceptable.

...I never said it made sense. :)

The only reason y'all Houstonites are jealous of us Dallas folk is because..well.
Let's see..
We have the Fort Worth Zoo and you don't.
We have the Nasher sculpture garden and you don't.
And we don't run people over with city busses. ;-)

We also have the State Fair and you don't. :D Corndogs. Sausage on a stick. Fried Co'cola. OMNOMNOM.

I was going to write a witty comment, but then the oven timer went. I'm off to enjoy a delicious dinner, which beats any snarky comment I could have made.

Much as I love the quiz, I've been enjoying the lack of Monday results. Reading them makes me late for work, because I'm too busy laughing to pay attention to the clock.

...Um, by the time two weeks have passed, SMW will indeed know if there is more than one. So the whole 'never know' thing is so much b.s.

@angledge -

I'm a native Houstonian living in ATX and I still have some trouble deciphering these guys sometimes. But if you need an interpreter I'm more than glad to help!

O_o

I live in the same city as [livejournal.com profile] angledge? Whoa...


Just remember, Austin has Alamo Drafthouse, which is like a normal movie theater, only it seats fewer people, serves food & beer through the movie, and doesn't allow anyone under 18 into the shows.

The Drafthouse permits children before 3p. After 3, no dice on the kiddies.

And if you haven't had the fried pickles, DO IT.

Dear [livejournal.com profile] angledge, I have lived here for my entire life, all of 25 years by the end of the year, and I still don't speak Texan. You will manage.

Sincerely,

Ashton called. He wants his shtick back. Okay, he just thinks punk'ng me is too easy, like stealing candy from a quadriplegic baby.

Except for Turkish Taffy. The baby can have that. And Mexican candy. Urgh.

And Japanese candy.

Recently, one of our librarians pawned some Japanese lotus and pine nut candy off on me. It was one of the most disgusting things I'd ever put in my mouth--a slightly sweet in a weird way nut-flavored jelly candy. Bleh.

Wow, it's Tuesday already? I didn't notice on the account of only sleeping 2 hours from Sunday to Monday and then something went wrong and now apparently it's Tuesday.

Where the quotes at?

You know, we've held up our end of the bargain by answering the quizzes. (Well, not me, but other quizlings.) But you guys haven't held up your end by posting the answers! Why should we even trust you?

Hmmph! *flounces away*
