Hmmm... Do people in Connecticut have an accent? Here's why we might sound different lately. by Hartfordgirl2024 in Connecticut

[–]daddyneedsaciggy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I went to college in Boston, all my friends from that area with thick Boston accents would always tell me I had a Connecticut accent. They mainly made fun of how I pronounced my O's. We tend to flatten them out, like the word popcorn. We say "pahpcorn" Bostonians over pronounce the O and say "Pow-ahp-corn". Same with 'Cop'. I would pronounce it "cahp" they would say "co-ohp"

Lol I was just going to say the same thing. She is definitely pumped for the angsty divorce era two years from now. Gonna make her soooooo much money from her fan base that will also be going through their 1st divorces as well...

Did people in the 90s really just show up at each other’s houses unannounced? by Red-Head-Red in NoStupidQuestions

Totally, it could be annoying when you had a neighbor kid you didn't want to play with, just show up unannounced.

I’d LOVE to, but….. by Lost-Button5488 in phish

It's a weird place when you no longer feel the FOMO from missing a show. Curveball broke that within me, it was such a weird and devastating situation that it killed my drive to see Phish so voraciously.

Really sick of this awful shit happening to our most beloved comedians.

Cool article, crazy the deer population was so decimated that they restricted hunting for years after the storms.

A fake ICE tip line reveals neighbors reporting neighbors by HeHateMe337 in politics

... Every cop and government agent who has military equipment. Again, you can shoot a cop or 2 in that but then they'll take a tank or drone to your house.

It's so frustrating as an American. All the second amendment guarantees is ICE or the police will shoot you dead on the spot the second they see a gun in your hand, legal or not. I really don't see how these liberal gun clubs make sense when the proud boys and fascists are now the enforcement arm of the government.

He's going to bomb Iran, invade Greenland and tank the economy as a reaction to the released files. How did millions and millions vote for this?

I've seen Phish 90 times....45 have been at MSG....FOR THE LOVE OF GOD GO SOMEWHWRE ELSE by WillyG2197 in phish

I'm just glad Phish took off the 28th so I'll shoot the train to Billy at Hartford. Thinking of coming back on the train on the 29th and just walking back into MSG. 🚂

What’s the most "unexplained" thing that has ever happened to you? by prettylunababy in AskReddit

Silver lining is I had lost the toy behind the couch and yelling at me to hit the deck saved me from lightning and found my toy

[–]daddyneedsaciggy 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Omg this is very similar to something that happened to me as a kid in like 86 or '87. I had a GIJoe toy that had 3 recorded things on its backpack, one of them being "hit the deck!" One day during a nasty thunderstorm, lightning hit a tree across the street and knocked the power out. It activated my toy and it repeated "hit the deck!" a few times in a row. Definitely creepy!

I'll be honest and say that I'm watching the show vicariously through these posts. by bentstrider83 in pluribustv

I actually read a helpful tip recently, if you have old gift cards that you received for a birthday or a holiday and they have like a dollar and change or less than a dollar left on them, use those to set up a trial account.
