I'm a New Yorker transplanted to the south. I asked my daughter's friend if he wanted to go to the movies or bowling with us. He said, "I don't care to." So I said "OK, we'll see you later." Daughter translated, "he wants to go, but it doesn't matter if it's bowling or movies."
I asked another kid if he wanted to get a pie with us. "What kind?" "Cheese, or pepperoni?" "Oh, you mean pizza. No, thanks, I wanted apple."
