Lied To.

I was lied to.. by Travis.

Obviously, he wasn’t smart enough not to upload his picture on his Youtube page. He told me he was 26, but his youtube page says he’s 16. Yep. All this time, he was telling me he was in his 20’s, but instead .. is a little fucking kid. What an asshole.

Any Good Movies?

I’m going to be seeing Avatar this Friday. Any of you suggest any good movies to see? There’s a few other movies I wanted to go see.. Like Legion and The Book of Eli, but I’m not entirely sure if I can convince anyone to go with me. :P

Anyway, my guild just recently hit 200 members and I’m pretty happy about that. We’re the 6th biggest guild on the server. Last time I checked, the biggest guild had around 440 people in it. I’ve asked my guild if they wanted to start raiding every Saturday, but it seems like they’d rather group than raid. Which is fine by me.

District 9

Just got done watching the District 9 movie. And all I can say is.. Wow. The social commentary in the movie is just astounding. I couldn’t help but cry towards the end. I was reading on the wikipedia page that they might make a sequel, if the first one was successful enough. Not entirely sure if you can always make a really good sequel to an already good movie. Although Saw 2 was pretty good.

Meh

So, how was your year?

I turned 29 this year. Last year before finally becoming a real adult at 30 next month. Let me see… Mayong opened on June 30th and I made the switch over from the Firiona Vie server (and started a lead a guild of people). Met a lot of new people..

Blah blah blah, my life is boring. Hehe. I suppose nothing exciting happened this year. Hoping that next year is better and more exciting.

Babies..

One of my good friends in Pittsburgh just found out that the girl he’s sleeping with.. got pregnant. He said that he’s been using protection, but she ended up with a bun in the oven. Thankfully, him and the mom gonna sit down and decide whether to keep it or put it up for adoption.

Which leads me to think.. After I finish school and settle down.. Whether I want to start a family of my own. As of right now, I can’t financially afford to have babies. I still have a few years to decide though.

Merry Christmas Bitches

Everquest Gripe

My biggest frustration is when a player decides to become a cleric.. they have absolutely no fucking clue what they’re doing. I have absolutely no problem when we get a cleric in group and they’re doing what the fuck they’re supposed to do.

I was in a group today with a cleric. I asked for spell haste probably 3 times before they even casted it on me. When I still had my level 75 cleric.. the very first time someone asked for spell haste I gave it to them. Not the 3rd time. After asking for it 3 times, I got the sinking feeling that the cleric was a complete moron. Then, she whips out her tank mercenary.. and just sits there as he’s dying. Hello? Are you not a fucking cleric who heals or just a complete imbecile? Then.. she just stands there as a mob is beating on her.. then dies.

I swears to god. Sometimes I just wanna smack someone for being so goddamn stupid.

Omigawd.

9 days until the new year.

Where exactly has the year gone? I remember as a kid the days used to feel like weeks as they passed by. Now.. as an adult.. The weeks and months feel like days passing. Where is all the time going? And why does it feel reversed (as in time passing)?

My 30th birthday is next month. I can’t believe I’m turning 30.

30.

I never thought I’d reach this age. When I was a kid.. I thought 30 was so far away. And not it’s almost here. /sigh

Sleeping & Music

When I was younger, I used to play Enigma in the background as I slept. Not really loud.. just audible enough to hear from my bed. I would have the overhead fan blow cool air on me as I relaxed and slumbered. I remember having the most awesome dreams, as Enigma would interweave it’s music into my dreams. I got so used to having music playing as I slept that I couldn’t sleep without it.

I’m not sure how I’ll deal with it these days.. as little sounds tend to keep me up and unable to fall asleep. I normally only have the standing fan on, for white noise. For some reason, I have to be cold and have white noise in the background to be able to have a good night’s sleep. The fan doesn’t matter so much.. but I always sleep better if I’m cold. My friend Anthony is also the same way (being cold while sleeping). I’m an oddball.

One song that stands out for me.. that always relaxed me was this one:

150 Members :P

Recently my guild in EQ1 has hit 150 members. It may have taken about…. 6 months to get. But the thing is, we’re not a raiding guild. If we had been, the numbers would have been much higher. I originally built the guild around casual grouping. People these days.. all they want is raid, raid, raid. “Screw the grouping side of EQ1.”

Back when I was still on Firiona Vie and a cleric.. all everyone ever wanted me for was raids. And I got really burnt out on them because of it. When I made the move to Mayong, I definitely wanted a more relaxed environment where I wasn’t pressured.

Fortunately.. building the guild around casual grouping, I haven’t had much drama in the guild. Which is weird. Majority of our members are over 30 and are married.. even though I recruit 18 and over. I think because of that, there’s virtually no drama. Most of them enjoy picking on their beloved guild leader (~snicker~), but they do it out of fondness.. I think?

Sickies

I think I may be coming down with a cold. The past few days, I’ve been feeling really weak and my head’s been stuffy. The other thing that’s bothering me is that my right foot is all swollen, pink, and warm to the touch. I’m not sure if it’s cellulitis.. But, I’ll be making a doctor’s call tomorrow morning to make an appointment.

I hate being sick. :(

Dragon Age

I recently purchased Dragon Age: Origins for the PS3 (I refuse to buy any Microslop products). And my god, that game is so incredibly awesome. I just purchased it last week and have already logged about 10 hours of playtime. It’s not a lot of time, since majority of my playtime is spent in Everquest 1, but my dusty PS3 has been getting a lot of use lately.

The graphics are amazing, the plot is superb. It’s actually gotten me interested in role-playing games again. On Black Friday, I was able to pick up 3 more RPG games for my Playstation (used, of course.. because.. well.. they’re cheaper). Lately, I’ve been less interested in EQ1… reason being is that I’m really getting tired of the mind numbing grind. Over and over again.

5 long years, I’ve been playing Everquest 1. The game isn’t a horrible one.. I do admit that the graphics engine needs an overhaul, but the actual gameplay is nice. But, after 5 years.. I’m getting tired of routine xp and faction grind. One thing I actually enjoyed in Everquest 2, is that the quests are much more fun. The faction grind there is less boring and just seems more fun. At least, in my opinion.

My Gut Instinct

I spoke to a girl that used to know Travis (an ex-friend). I happened to google his e-mail address without the @yahoo.com following his name. His MySpace page came up.. I clicked it and found this girl that knew him. Spoke to her through mails and it happens that he used her for her sympathy as well. Played all kinds of head games and all that crap.

I guess if your gut tells you that you shouldn’t trust someone, go with it instead of trying to be kind to someone. I even had a fellow guildmate in Everquest 1 tell me that I shouldn’t trust him either. Damn motherfucker.

Those Septa Assholes

Those filthy fucks over at Septa went on strike today. (Source: http://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local-beat/SEPTA-on-Strike-Tuesday-68836872.html). It’s not enough that they make $24.24 an hour, is it? There are people who are making minimum wage and can barely pay their health insurance (and busting their asses to get a pay check), but these fat fucks want a bigger pay check. For what? Just to sit on their asses all day, driving a bus. Oh wow, it’s so fucking hard driving a bus with power steering. I truly hope they hire scabs to replace those who went on strike. They screwed the entire city by doing this. Tons of people who solely rely on Septa can now sit at home, not working or going to school.

A big fuck you to those lazy fucks.

School & Stuff

Every piece of paperwork for college is filled out, even the financial aid part (which I dreaded doing). I should know the results of the financial aid situation next week (to see if I’m eligible for free education). If everything goes right, I should start Community College on January 19th. I’m really excited, because this is a new chapter in my life. Within 2 years, I’ll be able to move the fuck out of my parent’s house for good. I’m hoping that I can find a job in a clinic at least.

Yay for me and stuff. :P

Moving Forward

This coming week, I have an appointment at the Admissions office at a local college. Officially, the new semester starts in January but I can’t wait. 2 years until I get a degree (that is, if I pass everything). After that, I’ll be looking for a job outside of Philadelphia. I am so sick and tired of living here. If I managed to live here for this long, I’m pretty sure I can suffer another 2 years. It’s not so much the city that bothers me (I’m sure there’s assholes everywhere). It’s my father. He simply makes life miserable.

Anyway, these last few days have been really chilly and nippley. And rainy. Cold and rain don’t go together. It just makes it feel worse than it actually is. Lately, I’ve been thinking about going back to video blogging but haven’t had any motivation to actually sit in front of a camera again. I actually enjoy reading ridiculous comments from idiots. It’s just that.. there’s really not much for me to talk about. I never understood why anyone out there was interested in hearing about my boring life. Eh, oh well.

Worthless Bum

I recently found out that because of my loser father, we might lose the house. Because of his idiocy and money spending, my parents don’t have the fucking money to pay for the mortgage. So, next month.. I might be homeless because of that worthless piece of shit asshole loser bum of a father. And then he wonders why I hate the bastard. I don’t hate many people. I may dislike you, but not to the point of hating you. My “father” is one of those pricks that I do actually hate. He spends money on shit he doesn’t need, then blames Blake and I for not helping him. Well, gee asshole. If you didn’t spend money on crap you didn’t need, maybe you’d have money to pay for the fucking mortgage? If he doesn’t come up with the money soon, Blake and I are going to start selling his crap on Craig’s List and see if we can come up with the money. We already plan on selling his 2 big screen LCD tv’s, then he absolutely didn’t need. We’ll probably get about $500-750 each.

Tests!

Yesterday, I ended up going downtown to take my placement test. It went well.. Although I think I did better on the math portion than I did the reading comprehension. The essay part was pretty easy too, since I don’t have a problem writing. The stories for the reading comprehension part was so incredibly boring. Personally, when things are boring.. I stop paying attention. I actually had to the read the little story about 2-3 times before it sank in. The math part is easier for me, have no clue why.

Next week, I have to call the admissions office and set up an appointment. I start officially in January. Yay! :D

Exhaustion

Lately, I’ve been feeling really tired and sleepy. I’ve been having to force myself to do stuff. For example, I had to go food shopping on Monday. I completely and utterly did not feel like going. I knew I needed more food in my frig, but I just didn’t feel like going. I dragged my ass to the shower, got clean and dressed and dragged my ass to the grocery store. It’s been like that with everything. I’ve had to literally just force myself to go places, even though I’m just exhausted. And I have no clue why either. It’s not like I’m not getting my vitamins. I know I have B-12 Anemia and I’ve been taking my B-12 and Iron.

~sigh~

Twitter & T-Mobile

It seems I’m still getting “Access Denied” with T-Mobile. After so many complaints found on the internet, they still can’t get their acts together. Fortunately, I’ve found a completely different way to post to my Twitter account through my cell phone. The website is ping.fm. Without that web site, I’m not able to do it. T-Mobile may have cheap service, but their customer service stinks like sweaty balls.

Happy Yom Kippur Beeshes!

Monopoly Game.

Recently I started playing Monopoly City Streets. And I am so addicted. Hehe. I log in every day and buy up streets and stuff. There’s not much to do but buy and sell.. It’s still fun.

So, the new season of House and Fringe started last week. And oh. my. god. So far it’s so freaking awesome. I accidentally missed the season premiere of House, so I had download the episode. An hour and half worth, with no commercials. Woot.

Everquest “Soul Mate”

So, I recently recruited this ranger into my Everquest guild. Nice guy, married with a kid. Lives in Southern California.. A few days later, we were in a group.. just the two of us and he calls me his “Everquest Soul Mate”. Just because we clicked so well. ~rolls eyes~ I’m like.. “Mmkay, if you say so.” People are so strange sometimes. Below is a pic of him.

First of the Month

Apparently, the post I made the other day.. didn’t show up. It came out as only a freaking d.

Motherfucking computer. How I hate thou.

Anywaaaaaay.. Not much in the way of life. Was thinking of going to a more traditional community college, instead of finishing up my degree online. I’ve read way too many stories where employers won’t accept online degrees. So, I said screw it and applied. We’ll see how that goes and crap.

Sony Vaio Laptop

Last month, I saw the addition of a new laptop. I finally was able to save up enough money for a Sony Vaio. Here’s the link: Link. Anyways, it’s a sweet little laptop. The only thing I hate about it is that I was unable to “upgrade” Vista to Windows XP, because it didn’t have the SATA drivers. I’m thinking that maybe I needed the 64-bit version of XP. ~sigh~ Oh well. I uninstalled majority of the software that came with the computer, because I didn’t really need it. It’s extra fluff that really slows down the performance. It has a dual core processor, which makes 2-boxing in Everquest a tad easier. I’ve always wanted a laptop and was so freaking happy I finally got one.

Re-subscribed.

I recently re-subscribed to World of Warcraft. I started to miss playing my Druid. I always loved playing my night elf. The community as a whole sucks, but if you can find that one special guild full of great people.. then you’re lucky. I’ve mostly run across idiots. I usually just play an hour or two a day, whenever I need a break from Everquest 1. Since I lead a growing guild in EQ1, sometimes I just need a break from the stress and drama. Sometimes I just want to log into Warcraft and just grind out some quests and log out. ~shrug~

Visiting and Stuff :P

So, a couple guild mates that live in the same area as me all wanna meet up and hang out. One lives not that far from me (he lives on the border of New York and Pennsylvania). They all want cheese steaks. I’ve already met someone from EQ2.. I guess it can’t do any harm to meet more nerds. :P

My Absense

I know I’ve been away, but I’ve been busy. Couple things have happened in the last few weeks/days.

  • New server in EQ1 – I left my old server of Firiona Vie for Mayong. I couldn’t stand solo’ing anymore. Even being a level 75 cleric, I still barely couldn’t find groups.
  • New notebook computer – I recently purchased a Sony Vaio laptop. I was finally able to save up enough money to buy a decent laptop. Took me a while, but I finally did it. The suckiest thing about the computer is that I’m unable to “upgrade” to Windows XP from Vista. The very first 30 minutes of owning the computer, I wanted to throw it against the wall. I just couldn’t stand it. Fortunately, Blake was able to figure out a way to stop the annoying “Are you sure you want to kill yourself? Are you really, really sure?” I also went in and removed 90% of the software that came with the computer. All this extra shit I didn’t need was slowing down the computer. I’ve been playing a lot of Everquest with the laptop. I’ve read reviews about my current laptop and was reading that people have had horrible frame rates with gaming. The computer runs fine for me. I haven’t had any problems. Was thinking that people are just generally stupid and don’t think to remove all the extra unnecessary software that companies install.
  • And that’s my life in a nutshell.

No R.I.P. For Joo!

Michael Jackson died today of cardiac arrest. And I couldn’t be happier. If it were a poor innocent person, I’d be saddened by the death. Michael, however.. Doesn’t deserve my sympathy. To me, he’s a filthy rotten child molester. And I hope he rots in hell.

And yes, he’s been found not guilty. But, there is a difference between innocence and a not guilty conviction. On top of that, anyone with enough money can get away with murder. Just look at O.J. Simpson. If it were some piss poor douche bag on the corner, he’d be rotting in jail at the moment.

Wee Wee Doctor

I went to go see the gyno today. I have to say, the gynocologist is my least favorite doctor. Not because I have to get completely nude or I have to sit there with just a paper robe on, or any of that. The biggest reason why I hate going is because after she’s done digging for treasure in my hooha, she then sticks a finger in my ass. The reason being is that she checks for polyps. She doesn’t just stick the tip of her finger in. She sticks her whole finger in. The whole finger for Christ’s sake. I’m not a big fan of anal. In fact, I hate anal. It’s one of those unpleasant feelings. Like when you feel constipated. Thank god it’s only once a year.

Piercing

I got a new piercing yesterday.

When my mom saw it, she started to yell. WHY DID YOU DO IT?!@? HOW MUCH DID IT COST?@! Oh well. It’s my fucking lip. It’s not like I’m 13 for Christ’s sake.

Yay?

Today I received this in the mail. I have no idea how I got it, but hey.. free book.  I’m not sure if I entered a contest to get it, or if someone had ordered it for me. Oh well. I enjoy science fiction anyways.. I guess I’ll read it and stuff.

So, the past two days it’s been really humid here. Blahs. I can’t stand the humidity. I don’t mind the heat so much, it’s the humidity that makes it worse.

Found Out.

Tonight, I was on my druid in Everquest 1. As I was talking in the general chat channel, someone had brought up my name (Miss Jackie) and anal warts. I had this sinking feeling of “Oh crap, I’m not so anonymous anymore.” Oh well. :(

Vanguard Playtime

Sony decided to give all inactive Vanguard accounts a free month. So, I figured…. why not? I reinstalled the software (which is a massive 20 Gigs) and hopped on. Let me just say, I’m quite impressed that I’m not bogged down by lag anymore. Once or twice it stuttered, but I was actually fine. So far, I’m playing a druid (I am so sick of playing Clerics these days). I remember when I first picked up the game 2 years ago, I couldn’t get the game to work correctly on my machine. Every few seconds, my video would choke up and lag. REALLY BADLY. Fast forward 2 years and I’m barely lagging. I think I read somewhere that they fixed a whole shit load of bugs and improved performance. I’m also thinking of making a necromancer for shits and giggles.

Dentists Suck

The abscess in my mouth is gone and the pain isn’t there anymore. Thank god. When I saw a dentist recently, they wanted to remove 5 teeth. I only went in just to have 2 teeth removed (a wisdom tooth and a broken tooth right near it). But, noooo.. They wanna remove 5. Fuck it. I’m not having more than 2 removed. And if they don’t like it, they can suck my fat dick.

In other news, I removed my cleric from my old guild and placed her into the guild I made with my druid. I am so tired of not finding groups.

Returnage

I went back to Everquest 1. I have a love/hate thing for my cleric. I love being able to show off my tanking abilities (since we are a plate class), but I’ve slowly learned to hate having to sit there and heal..heal..and ~yawn~.. throw another heal. The biggest pet peeve is the mercs Sony added in last expansion. Our class has been reduced to a raiding class. I rarely find groups these days and mostly find myself solo’ing. I’ve long since abandoned my cleric as a main character and picked up my druid. Even though druids are still considered Priests.. I can still do more shit. Kite, DoT’s, ports, heal, etc. I’ve never considered picking any class that involves being a tank only. Ever. I love spell casting too much to give it up.

Gettin’ There

The pain in my lower left jaw is getting better. On top of that, the swelling is going down. Which I’m pretty happy about. The medication I’m on is taking care of the infection. I can’t wait until I see the dentist next Monday. Have these two teeth removed would be so wonderful. No more chances of having an infection.

In other news, nothing special is going on. I have to see my family doctor this Thursday, because I might have dermatitis on my scalp and my eyebrow area. Originally I had dandruff on my scalp, but no matter how many times I’ve used anti-dandruff shampoo, it’s still there. I think I may need to see a dermatologist. Blahs.

Contest Winner!

Omigawd. I actually won something. Allakhzam is running a contest until May 7th and they’re giving out Everquest 2 goodies. Here’s my winning e-mail:

By posting a whole crap load on their EQ2 forums, I was able to win. I actually selected the 60 day subscription thingie, since I already have the last expansion. ~does happy dance~ And here I thought that I never win anything. Teehee. I was in a miserable mood all day because of my pain and this actually made me really happy.

Free Clinic

I called the free clinic this morning and asked to make an appointment for the dentist. Unfortunately, they’re backed up until July. Which isn’t good, because I need my 2 teeth pulled immediately, or I’m going to end up having another abscess to deal with.

So, it turns out that my health insurance does cover dental and they sent me a letter last year by mistake. The thing that’s fucked up is that I never received another letter saying that they sent the first letter by mistake. So, I went all this time thinking that they stopped covering dental. I could have avoided getting cellulitis and having to go to the stupid emergency room. ~sigh~

Ick and Blahs.

The past few days, I’ve been in extreme pain with my teeth. Originally I had an abscess on the lower left side of my mouth. Then, today I woke up and that area was swollen like a motherfucker. I ended up going to the emergency room. There, the doctor examined me and saw that I had cellulitis.  So, they hooked up a IV and drained 2 bags of ant-biotics and 1 bag of an anti-inflammatory into me. 4 1/2 hours later, I was sent home with a prescription for 2 antibiotics and percocets. I feel a lot better and was told that I need to go to the dentist for tooth extraction. Tomorrow morning, the first thing I have to do is call the free clinic (for some odd fucked up reason, my health insurance stopped covering dental last year). Since I can’t afford a dentist, I’m forced to go to the free clinic.

As soon as my infection heals up, I’ll probably have 2 teeth pulled. I don’t mind, as long as all this freaking pain stops. There’s nothing that stinks more than having your mouth in pain and not being able to eat because of it… Because my fat ass loves to eat. :-)

Yoga

I bought a yoga dvd from Amazon and I just received it the other day. It was this one:

Instead of paying out of my ass for gym fees, I decided to exercise at home. I was thinking of doing the yoga 3 times a week (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and then taking the weekend off). Why not? I always wanted to be more flexible and I’ve always wanted to one day place my feet behind my head. ~wink~

Gaming

My Everquest subscription ends on May 1st. The game isn’t enjoyable to me anymore. I’ll miss the friends I’ve made, but why continue paying for something if I don’t enjoy it anymore. It’s been a fun 5 years. But, I need to move on. I really never got into World of Warcraft. No matter how many times I’ve tried out new characters, I just can’t get into it. I was thinking of just playing Perfect World with Blake and not worry about paying monthly fees anymore.

My Teefs :<

I’m really starting to get annoyed at my two teeth. See, I’ve been in a lot of pain these past few days. Two teeth on my left side have been killing me. The wisdom tooth and another tooth right near it. I’ve been taking vicodin and placing ice on the teeth, just to get rid of the pain. It makes eating almost impossible. I guess I can afford to lose a couple pounds. Or.. just eat pudding. ~cries and drools at the idea of poooooding~

CVS Pharmacy Sucks

So, my mom picked up a prescription for me at the CVS pharmacy on Monday. It was for a bottle of pain killers. My last refill. When I opened the bag, it didn’t look like my usual 180 tablets. I asked Blake to count them and there were only 100 in the bottle. Which is weird. I called the pharmacy up and told them that they didn’t give me the correct amount. The 1st guy put me on hold and then a second guy came on. I told him the same thing. And guess what the douche bag told me? “Oh, we re-count everything. You have the correct amount.” Basically, calling me a fucking liar. I have never once called that fucking pharmacy and complained that I’m missing pain killers. Who knows how many times they tried to screw me over? I told the asshole that I am in fact missing pills and I can come in with the fucking bottle. “No, we re-count them. You have the correct amount.” What-EVER. I hung up and called my health insurance and complained about it. The representative put me on hold and called the pharmacy. And guess what? I was in fact getting the rest of my 80 pills. Which is odd..They gave me the correct amount of pills and yet I was able to pick up the rest of my medication.

My point is… count your fucking pills and always, always, always call your insurance if you’re missing any. Your insurance is paying their fucking bills and the pharmacy knows that. I would have understood if I were missing 2-3 pills. It could have been a simple mistake. But 80? That’s obviously fraud.

Procrastination

I promised myself this past December that I would start video blogging in the new year. I still haven’t made 1 stupid video yet. I have no idea why. I even charged my camcorder’s battery. I have plenty to say, just haven’t really recorded anything yet. ~sigh~

It’s not like I’m scared of being made fun of. Hell, all my stupid video’s I made in the past.. why would I be scared? I guess the main reason is because I’m lazy?

In other news, I recently had the stitches of my procedure removed. I was so fucking happy when they were removed. It meant that I didn’t have to have the wound cleaned every. single. freaking. day. Blah. I almost regretted having the procedure done. It’s not like the cyst was cancerous.

T-Mobile Stupidity

Who are they hiring for these call centers? I’m on the phone now with a representative and I had to explain my situation 5 different times in order for the stupid cunt to even understand me.

See, the problem is.. I can’t use Twitter on my cell phone. I’ve always had a problem sending SMS text messages to Twitter through T-Mobile. It always said ‘Access Denied’. It’s happened with 2 cell phones already. So, I call them and ask them why the messages were denied.

Their solution? “We have no idea what you’re talking about because we’re complete imbeciles, so you’re gonna have to contact Twitter yourself. Good luck.” Fucking douche bag service, I tells ya. Utter morons.

Sebaceous Cyst

Yesterday, I had to have a minor surgical procedure to remove a sebaceous cyst. I was so incredibly nervous while going into the OR. I was awake the whole time. The surgeon just numbed the area with novacaine, then cut it open and removed the cyst. It was kinda big and cheesy. While I was heading home, the novacaine started to wear off and it started to kill me. Thank god for painkillers.

Other than that, EQ1 decided to rename classes for April Fool’s Day. For my druid, they renamed Treehugger. My cleric, they renamed Rezbot. How cute. Right now, I’m just logging into EQ2 to see what they did for today.

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Everquest! 10 years ago, you were born.

The resolution on my camera phone sucks. But here’s a pic.

Wudder!

I remember the first time I said “water ice” to my friend Anthony. He was like.. “Yeahhhh.. okay.” I’m like, “You never heard of water ice?” Only in Philly will you hear people say water differently. Anthony still makes fun of me to this very day, because of the way I say water.

Here’s a thing I found on Wikipedia about it: “The word water is commonly pronounced /wʊdər/ (with the first syllable identical to the word wood, so that it sounds somewhat like wooder.) This is considered by many to be the defining characteristic of the Philadelphia dialect.”

Everywhere else they pronounce it “wahter”. Douche bags. :P
