Posted By: The Almighty Doer of Stuff Posted On: Mar 27, 2005 Views: 899 | Wicked Uh, several of those are still in use. Wicked, for example. It seems to be mostly a Bostonian thing, although people in other areas may still use it. In fact, there's a They Might Be Giants song called Wicked Little Critta which is about Boston dialect. www.tmbg.com Go to that site, click on the ECards button (which AFAIK you can't actually send to people) repeatedly until "Wicked Critta" comes out of the accordian, then click on it and it will play. |
