PSDS

What you get when you want to wear earrings.

Reuven Brauner submits the following similar examples: We saw BSNDS at the zoo in Franklin Park. We bought it at CS and Roebuck's. Mother always said, "Don't forget to wash behind your ES." The Boos and GS got to Mantle. PS are a juicy fruit. Crying causes TS. This car VS to the left.

I think this is the best thing in the whole guide. First time I read this, I was laughing so hahd my boss came running to see what was wrong--he thought I was having a fit or something.

This isn't Boston per se, but we can't forget the infamous (now incarcerated) former mayor of Providence, Buddy C&C. (As in "Music Factory.")

I didn't get it either until I said it phonetically. Then that accent just kicked right in.

A lot of people pronounce my name GNut, and the real extreme cases say "Geeeeeeeeeeeeeenut." And it seems like most of them are Keeuthlick.

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was just talking to a friend of mine about this, but didn't know how to spell it. OMG!! Until I said it outloud, it sounds like a totally differenet language, not english. This has to be the best or the worst.

I was embarrased when I said it, in Ohio, as no one could understand what I was saying at all. I had a hellavah time trying to pronounce it so they could understand. lOL
