That caffeine-saturated beverage that most people drink very hot first thing in the morning?
There's a transplanted New Yorker here who calls it "kuffy."
Any takers?
LOL.
I'm getting ready for a cup right now.

In Australia we say: "I'm getting a Cuppa Mate." {Tea or Cawfee} We also call our Dinner meal our "Tea" "Gowin home ta eat mi Tea"..........I don't know why!

Hi, 007.
How do you Aussies pronounce mate?
Sounds like "might" to me.

Yes, that is the way I pronounce it, also.
Yes, know about Hot Coffee Mississippi.
Near Wesson was a town called "It." Drove through there as a kid. I think there was one store. Wesson was alot bigger. It had a tiny Post Office, feed store, grocery, etc.

If you're in Chicago, it's Caa-Fee.
It's all in the accent. Like Andy Sipowitz on NYPD Blue. He's actually from Chi-Town.
Watch WGN news and you'll immediately understand.

Yes, it is.
New Jersey = New Joisie.
I can't stand that Bronx accent, though.
A woman came down here from there, and I was glad when she went back!
Sheesh!

My favorite Yankee joke... No offense to our Northern neighbors...
How are Yankees like hemorrhoids?
Those that come down and go back up are okay, those that come down and stay are a pain in the ass
