LOL You misunderestimate me. Other cheeses are also good. :o)
I didn't know they used that in RI.
May not be the whole state, bein as it's so big n'all. Years ago, I ran into some guy from RI on a different board. Every once in awhile, regional linguistic quirks would become a topic. The RI guy & I were giving some woman from MD fits, dropping wild clues like, "place for middle school boys to park mini-skirted chics". One of those silly "how Southern are you?" quiz deals, said there's an area in Southern MA where it's used.
Yeah???? Just wait till next year------
LOL Trust me, I know the feeling.
...dar, hey.
Sheesh I thought I heard them all.
Not dar, der, rhymes w/ there. I forgot to include the standard "ya" that usually precedes "der hey". :o) My ex is 100% Polish & when he'd give me the business about my mutt pedigree, specially the German part, "ya der hey" was usually a reliable response. lol
Okay, I will use "ya der hey" on the guy at work and look for his response.
Thanks. It was fun. See you around and God bless. Ray.
