How's that for gravy?coach-daddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13704538789878937576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-346136223430272580.post-4893481243691810372017-08-09T12:23:51.987-04:002017-08-09T12:23:51.987-04:00Snooty!!??

I've been accused of being snooty for calling supper dinner.

Yes! You WARSH your clothes here in WV. It's crazy. Never heard of a poke as a bag but I have heard of a pole cat but I thought it was an actual animal on its own, not another name for skunk.

Pop vs. soda was just the beginning. Some people called the paper bag you get your stuff in at the grocery store a poke (what?). A skunk is a pole-cat. Have you ever heard of a whistle pig? That's a groundhog to normal people. Lunch is dinner and dinner is supper. I can't even remember all the weird stuff because now it seems normal.
