Saturday, May 6, 2006 at 7:29 PM In another thread, I used slut tattoo but SH called them tramp stamps . I'm thinking that's gotta be a regional thing (like pop / soda / soda-pop / coke). There are tons of those and I'm bored so, please - name some. —anobody |

Yeah - Phoenix is pretty bland (like LA, almost everyone here is from someplace else so it doesn't have much of a flavor of its own). I don't know if this is all over the country, but when people call Wal-Mart "Wally World" it gives me the creepin' willies. Never heard that one before. Fortunately, they'll be closed for the next two weeks -

It depends on how I'm using the word "Route" to determine which way I pronounce it.
I don't call an easy class any of those things. And I use all three of these terms: t.p. toilet papering, and rolling. I didn't have any other problems with that quiz.
