Dialect

It's a love/hate thing for me. Regionalisms are cool in a purely anthropological way, but Southern talk has always irked me. Waiting "on" somebody rather than "for" them. One "mashes" an elevator button here. Then they torture place names: Albany is pronounced All-binny, etc.

But what I hate most is when people tell me to "Have a blessed day."
