My kids are grown and far-flung, but I still get a kick out of opening my bottom dresser draw and looking at all the bottles of cheap cologne they gave me on this day over the years.
Funny how the value of that stuff increases with age. 8o)
I know you guys talk like that, but I have seen you write "dresser draw" a few times here on the boards. I have never seen anyone else use "draw" in that context instead of "drawer." Not sure why Conan keeps letting you get away with it. 🙂
A Brooklyn accent might say it that way too. I just figured since fishbro is from Boston and they say things like, "I would get in my cah, and drive to the bah, but the bah is too fah, so I'll just stay home and drink out of this jah," that they might say "draw" instead of "drawer" too. I just never saw it written as draw, except by fish, and this is certainly not his first time.
Seeing as they are of legal age, ever think about one of your daughter's friends/classmates? Maybe fantasize about coming across them advertising in the hobby??
I was at meeting years ago when an engineer from Boston came in with a blueprint that he referred to as a "draw-ring".
Later, I tried to teach him the correct pronunciation of "drawing". I spelled it "droing" (rhymes with "boing") and then tried "draw-wing". Nothing worked, so we decided to go to lunch. He ordered a hamburger with pickle and raw onion – except he pronounced it "raw RUN-yun". I asked him what a "run-yon" is and he was flabbergasted.
You beat me to it with the Idears! It's always fun to the owner of a Boston (Eastern Mass) accent drunk and make them pronounce their "R's". Try: "The hot horse's heart." AKA "The hot hoss's hot". It's a great idear. If your target Bostonian is of the right gender and cute, you then get her to drop her draws ...
