Lol, the reminds me of my ex wife's sister who live on the upper peninsula of MI. They call it the yoop, but I mistakenly called it the ohhhp. I was corrected and asked why I said it that way. I guess my brain was asking why am I here...

Not the yoop, it’s da yoop.
And here’s a song by Da Yoopers

What's a Manhattan?

2 oz. Bourbon (or rye), 1 oz. vermouth, dash of bitters, garnished with cherry (usually with sweet vermouth) or lemon (usually with dry vermouth). Can be served on the rocks or up (in a cocktail glass).

Grits are way more fancy if you just call it polenta.

 

[Umbran]

You have never had grits then...

Sure. In an Italian restaurant - they called it "polenta".

Edit to add: Italian food ninja'd!

Telling folks "they haven't had real X..." is a lame bit anyway. If the best defense of your favorite thing is to gaslight, maybe your favorite thing ain't all that great.

Yeap, which is why I have turned to saying I havent had the good stuff yet. Im hoping they point me in the right direction instead of just saying they dont like my kind round those parts.

As a Scotsman (by descent only), I can't help but agree.
