Being from Massachusetts is the only reason I know how to pronounce Worcestershire sauce. Worcester, MA has conditioned me to have “woostah” or “wooster” (I don’t have a heavy accent) as a possible pronunciation of that combo of letters
I don’t care if it’s originally British or not, Massachusetts taught me well
It also makes it a lot harder to spell from memory. Took me five tries in this post

Not a big Vocaloid person but decide to put my two cents in.
Note it is not finished and I’ve been pretty busy with school so I thought I just show what I’ve got .
I just realized Like most people have never heard of Hole Island and I think that’s so ridiculous cause I thought it was a really common place to go to during summers growing up but I guess I was wrong. (I guess this generation’s parents don’t care about good clean American fun anymore 🙄)Lmk if you remember going here cause I wanna find y’all hole island goers. It was this really allusive island that had like a specific passcode to get in but a lot of people found out about it so it got really popular as a vacation spot. It’s the main destination for busses and boats so all you gotta do is get on and go up to the driver and do the secret pass code (you gotta climb onto his lap while he’s driving and give him a long, wet, kiss and if he doesn’t crash you get to go) and you get launched from the bus onto this zip line that leads to hole island. You get there and you gotta bypass the no girls allowed gate (girls have cooties and the island is gay) and if you’re a girl you get zapped with the “randomized fate ray” and if you’re a guy or a they you get to enjoy the beautiful beauty of hole island . It’s got alot of holes and in one of them is the zombie ghost thing of former American president Ronald Reagan and like the main attraction of the island is that you get to skin him alive every morning and by every night his skin grows right back so the cycle can repeat forever! When I was a little kid I remembered wandering off into the woods after the daily Slut Skinning (that’s what we liked to called it) and I found what I think might’ve been the literal fountain of youth. It was being circled by helicopters bc the government is full of fun hating squares but I figured out that if you drink enough of the water fast enough that you can actually de-evolve so far that you don’t pass as a human anymore and so therefore the law doesn’t apply to you. Anyway hmu

mandatory super bowl post bc everyone around me is pumped so I want to spread the good vibes~~~
slipped away to my hidden place, climbed a tree, and watched the clouds tell me quiet little stories
jaywalking is a sacred tradition all northerners take part in. we’ve got places to go and people to see, we don’t have time for your stupid traffic laws
So people just cross the road here? Like they don't wait for the light every time? When I was a kid everyone told me that if I jaywalked I would get run over. I was walking around yesterday and a bunch of people just jaywalked right in front of cop. The cop was doing something else but wtf! If you are from Boston could you please explain this to me.

Unrelated but my dad just told me my friend who can drive can just show up unannounced after school anytime she wants and I think I may throw up from happiness
How do I even express this
My emotionally constipated new England-ness is getting to me.
People are forgetting to get gifts. I keep forgetting it's Christmas. I dreamed that it snowed and all was right with the world. Where is my winter weather? Are my brand new snowboots for nothing at all? Do the sno-brums that are perpetually in my parents' cars and at every store mean nothing? Why can I see grass? Are the sleds waiting so patiently in the basement just meaningless hunks of plastic?
Where is MY December??? 😭
It's been raining off n' on round here all week. The lake is swallowing the beach and the calm, usually peaceful river is now class 5 rapids and impossible to hear yourself over. My grandpa's garden is prob gonna flood. The road is washed out and pavement is missing. Sand piled up so bad people can't leave their driveways. Flash flood warning. We're expecting another inch today. And here we are being sarcastic about it. New England, folks
Guide to the New Hampshire accent
Talk with the back of your mouth
Squish words together
Drop the letter t from your alphabet. Replace it with ch or d or just skip it.
Make s sound like a hard sh
In those weird al- words, drop the L. Aright, amost, oways
Sometimes vowels turn into each other for no reason
Sometimes you put t where it shouldn't be, it's just never where it should be. Tetnichally. Atcent.
Never say thanks or thankyou properly. It could be a slight difference, like thinks, or insane, like "Shinkatoo." I'm starting to wonder if there's a statewide competition to see who can say it the weirdest.

Every mf town in Massachusetts has someplace called the Brave Lion Fucking A Boar's Head Inn that's been open since 1796 and their specialty is the "Autumn Clusterfuck", a cocktail made of 6 varieties of hard liquor mixed with hand-crushed local apple cider and served with a hockey-stick shaped stirrer.
