Quote from: Eviecorn on October 14, 2012, 10:18:09 AMI think mostly everyone's familiar with Southern terminology, but I still get awkward looks from non-southerners when I use the term "cattywampus." it's just an adjective meaning off-center or generally not right.Like caddycorner which is diagonal across from. I bet that is where the word cattywampus/caddywamus came from. Or that is my theory at least.

In Rhode Island some people call milkshakes "Cabinets". Also, some people call Subs "Grinders". I remember when I lived in Kentucky all soda was called coke, it didn't matter what flavor you had.
Another thing I get called out on is I grew up around the convenience store chain called Wawa, and I'll mention it off hand, and everyone's like "wtf is a wawa???" (this is a wawa). I'm from South Jersey, close to Atlantic City.
