When someone used to ask my best friend how old she was she would say old enough to eat corn without getting choked. I still dont get the meaning of this, but she is from the DEEP COUNTRY!!

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.

Another Damon: What's the 410, (Baltimore Area Code where he lives), on that situation.

Whenever I use to pout about not getting my way my Great-Grandmother use to always say "you'll be alright when the swelling goes down" in other words whenever I stop crying my swollen eyes will go down and I'll forget about whatever it was I wanted!

Another one she always use to say would be..."Cher, I feel for you but I just can't reach you!" translation- Baby, I understand you want it but I can't give it to you!
