It's only incest if I have relations with my sister. I never have. Besides thinking and acting on one's thoughts are two totally different things. ;)

I got all of that except okes.

I don't call a flashlight a torch or an eraser a rubber or a car trunk a boot but I do know what they are. I also know a fag is a cigarette but I really don't use that one.

Okes would be guys. Some others (some might be ZA specific) Pavement = Sidewalk, Robot = Traffic Light, Petrol = Gas, Hockey = Field Hockey as opposed to Ice Hockey, Football = Soccer, Jam = Jelly.

Something I am going to use in my next campaign actualy is to have regional variances in common like this.

We have jam and jelly. Jam tends to be denser with more actual fruit in it. Jelly is mostly fruit juice. Robot? That's a new one. How did that one come about? Do they look like robots?
