None of this makes any sense whatsoever to me...Yinzers? Wooder? jawn?

And I thought Texans had the market cornered on talking funny.

The Philly area is generally made fun of for how we say "water" (and surrounding areas, I think it's more prevalent Southeastern PA/South Jersey but I'm sure heavier and lighter accents exist out side that) The "t" is basically replaced with more of a "d" sound and the "ah" is more an "oo" for most of us, but some really thick accents come out exactly as wood-er It's kinda up there with soft pretzels and cheese steaks as a Philly thing.

Each region has it's own take on the English language - I still make fun of hubby for saying "draw" instead of drawer, like some of the more north states in the east do (I don't know exactly where that comes from). Occasionally he'll add an R to the end of a word that doesn't exist, and I tell him to put that back where it belongs in the drawer

Someone literally just asked where they can meet stitch besides o’hanas

And in Baltimore, they say “zinc” instead sink. I am forever correcting my mom that zinc is a mineral and not where she is putting her dirty dishes.

@Alexle2007 reported on 3/11 that Gyft was still coding as 5x on the CIC.

I haven’t seen any recent negative DPs, but the shoe could drop at any time and we wouldn’t know until the transactions post ~2 days later.

And my 3/14 transaction posted properly with 5x. I did one today so we’ll see how that one goes on Tues.

Wow I wonder if we say anything hear that sounds weird to other people.

So no one has brought up the midwestern worsh?

 

[kidsfirsttrip]

I had to call on mine but getting my dh to call isn't as easy. He will do it but it will just take forever to actually happen...And I don't have a deep voice lol...

Did you try the app? Worked fine on the app for me

 

[amalone1013]

Ok. Every Frontier sale excludes DEN to MCO, seriously. I've never seen it included. Until today. When I'm not even looking for MCO, I'm looking for Omaha. So guess what route is excluded

I’m almost positive I tried that with mine before I had to call but I’ll ask him to try It. Thanks!

I can’t stand when people say ohana’s. It’s literally called ohana. Why are you adding an ‘s?

I always thought it was 'Ohana.

 

[trenty]

Actually, it’s quite common to hear the addition of a possessive to the name of a location in Hawaii. So, you’ll hear “Let’s go to Costco’s,” or “Let’s go Zippy’s” (which actually has a possessive in its name), similar to how one would say, “Let’s go [to] Auntie’s [Beach House].”

Common - but wrong. LOL.

"Let's go to Auntie's." This is correct. Auntie owns the beach house.

"Let's go to Costco's." Incorrect. Costco is the name of the store. One is going to Costco, not Costco's store.

 

[Judique]

Can I go there just for desert?

I've eaten the bread pudding dessert at the bar.

I'm not sure 'Ohana has a desert or why you would want to go there.

 

[amalone1013]

That Priceline thread is dangerous. Now I'm just checking dates that I'm not even sure I'm going

My coworker is from Cincinnati and that’s the word that drives me crazy every time she says it

 

[spacerangerqueen]

Sounds like the doubletree that’s been mentioned a lot here.

...but it isn’t warm, so don’t be jealous. Annoyingly chilly. I was cold tonight with my Patagonia better sweater on. At least it never did rain today.

I loved the weather yesterday! I got to turn off the AC and open the windows. Looks like I can keep the AC off today and get one more wear out of the sweatshirt I just got little dude that I think he is already almost too big for. I am not ready for the return of highs in the 100s so I am clinging to a high of 72 for all it's worth!

You got your CIP in late Feb. I’d wait until at least May 1st to try for another and really preferably June 1st. It’s great that you can crush MSRs in no time BUT if you go too fast Chase will stop approving you and can even shut you down (don’t do that).

An AMEX biz card would be a great move at this point. It would keep you off Chase’s radar and you can come back for CIP 2 hopefully in June the.

This was going to be my exact question, since I got the CIP in Feb as well. I was going to wait till May/June to maybe go CSR/CSP but wondered if Amex would be an option in the meantime. It’s crazy how impatient one can become with this.

Just thought I'd share on the BB&T bank bonus...

DH's account is still showing the $250 push I did from our Ally savings as "exception/administrative hold." No idea why, but I'm not sending anymore money to it until that's cleared up. I wanted to send the extra $1250 I need to keep the account fee free, but I'm not doing it until my money is really there. I think it may be because it wouldn't verify my Ally account for some reason. I had to do two of the little deposits from Ally into my account and then verify the amounts before it would link up the accounts properly.

Yet on my BB&T account, the $250 opening deposit I put on my Hyatt Visa went through no problem and it linked with my Ally account immediately.

Just got around to checking DW's new account, and the initial $50 ACH funding from Ally is also showing exception/administrative hold until 3/22/19. I was also unable to insta-link Ally to BB&T and instead had to do trial deposits, so I'm guessing that's it. I never had issues with BB&T last year so I'm not too concerned, I'm guessing it's just some kind of verification hold since it didn't link right away.

It is.

I hope you know that was a purposeful misspelling for humor & I do not actually pack my camels when I go to WDW

Just pulled the trigger on CIP #2 for DH. Instant approval!! With basically the same credit line as his first one (that I cut to $2k or so)!
