Fun Day Monday: You Know You're NOT Local If...

April 26th, 2010
By World Wide Ed

A little over a year ago, we had an active discussion about how you can tell if someone is "local" or not. In fact, I believe it was the first time we hit triple digits (in comments) up in this heezy. In case you missed it, chicky chicky check it: You Know You're Local If...

There were several moments this weekend when I saw peeps acting supah "non-local" and it made me want us to chat up about it this week. So let's see what our WWE `Ohana can come up with ah?

"You Know You're NOT Local If..."
(Need help? Click here or here.)

I'll start:
* You wear matching aloha wear from head to toe (and think it looks cool).

    @kuya d #75: when someone says "Jessie" you think Rainbow Coalition instead of Takamiyama (or is that a local + MLC sign?)

    @matt - no, no ... You're good! Takamiyama is the original. I was basing my reference on Iz's song.

    #104 et al: I've heard "Cam-ee-cam-ee-ha-ha" from a haole up here trying to read the name (but not really trying that hard, obv.)

    @tl (I going use the abbreviation and not chance a typo again): that gets me all irraz. it's one thing if your tongue is not used to saying foreign words (from any language) and you butcher the pronunciation, but it's a whole other thing if you're just lazy and don't even try to say the words correctly. I mean fricken Kamehameha is long, but if you break it up into parts, any pre-schooler who's just learning letter sounds could read it. sheesh.

    read that the queen has second name ELIZABETH..well she that smart Queen easy to say her name.. ..then if you hit the king Kamehameha on the head with large paddle you get free land..what if fifty guys hit him on the head would he give them all land?


  119. Rosette:
    April 27th, 2010 at 12:31 pm

    yes you think after king Kamehameha he gave the two guys land people will be smacking him on the head....
