"I’m from Southern Ohio (which is pronounced “Oh-hi-Ya”)"

I am from Ohio, too, but I was still always frustrated by my grandparent's pronunciations of words. They lived in Springfield.

Grandma, it's NOT "Cincinatta". Today is NOT "fri-dee". We DON'T live in Day-n (Dayton), and for God's sake it's a green pepper not a "mango".

YES I went to Colorado when I was seventeen and us kids went to a pizza shop and ordered a pizza with Mushrooms, peperoni and "Mangoes" Everyone in the place thought we were nuts.

Also a couple of years earlier our family was in Wisconsin and a bunch of us kids went into town and we were walking around and I got thirsty but didn't have much money So I started asking people if there was a water fountain anywhere nearby because I wanted some water. They kept sending me to the park where there was a beautiful ornamental fountain. Finally someone asked why I wanted a water fountain and I told them I wanted a drink of water. I was informed that such a thing was called a "bubbler"...
