Southie!!!

Did you realize “Masshole” was avoided in the Series for a really, really long time? Obviously, no one told Southerner Chris Higgins about this insult to people from Massachusetts.

For anybody who thinks I make this shit up, or proclaims me “stereotyping,” watch this, too … They don’t hear it, but they all say “pa’k the cah,” just with a different twang. Youse getting me here? ‘Youse’ is also NY.

When listening to these guys, I’m thinking, “How can I spell these accents?” Going after the mid-word Rs is easy. Dawchesta.’ ‘Maage’—pronounced Marge for the rest of us.
