Yep we are. And there's nobody as uptight and easily irritated as Northerners, especially Northeasterners! We're pretty tightly wrapped.​

I second that! I've already started teaching my children to pronounce it properly. I'm not surprised when I see lots of misspellings nowadays because so many words are mispronounced to begin with.

I would also like to add:

VIN Number
Intresting instead of IntEResting

This last one isn't a common one, but I saw this on a sign last year. (And, of course, I didn't have my camera with me!)

Speaking of signs, I was going to college one day and saw this on a church sign:

Satin is seeking those to devour.

Well, now, that is true. That is the New England Add/Drop 'R' Rule of speech. If a word ends with 'R', you leave it off; if it doesn't, you add one.

For example, "I'm going to the cah to get the pizzar and sodar."

We just moved up here and I have heard a lot of you "northeasterners" admit to your uptight and irritated way of being not to mention the rudeness(relatively speaking from a girl raised in the south

) and the constant rush to be nowhere. What I don't get is if you ALL recognize the problem how come none of you change it?

I never knew how much I'd miss "Southern Hospitality" til I moved north of the Mason-Dixon line! I am beginning to believe the "northern attitude" is because it's so darn COLD up here! You're not mean people, you're just cold. It's June already - What the Heck?????
