We said it too, old enough to eat cornbread without choking. It's because cornbread is kinda dry and crumbly, so it tickles your throat at first, makes you cough a little. Until you get the hang of it. And my pham is from NC, not too DEEP south, lol.

I had never heard that 'fist-n-cuffs' mess. Loverman (lol) said it the other day, I was like, wtf? Fistacuffs? He had to explain, I told him to go on somewhere, cuffs? WTF? What if you got on a t-shirt? That's just silly to me, lol.

SNS, we said Gimme drowned!! LOL! I used to hate that mess, too. Just GIMME what I asked for, lol. Kill me correcting your english as if you learned how to talk on your own accord. Shoot, we had to get it from somewhere.
