But it doesn't have a hole. Jambuster describes it perfectly. When you bite it, the jam busts out.
I just heard that a "Saskatoon handshake" is a punch to the jaw. That's better than a "Winnipeg handshake," which has always meant a stab to the gut.
There was an article in the paper today saying "dainties" ( i.e., tiny square cakes like Nanaimo bars, often served at afternoon gatherings) are a Winnipegism. Nobody else in the world calls tiny cakes "dainties"? I don't believe it
Rowan said he was fast asleep on Dec. 31, at about 5 a.m., when he was awakened by the sound of what he thought were keys hitting his door and a loud banging.He said he tried to ignore it when he heard the banging on other doors further and further down the hall.“Then, what the hell, the bang on my door was louder — it sounded like a hockey stick hitting the door. I thought, ‘What the f—k is going on?’“I went out in just my socks and gitch — that was all I had on — she was already at the end of the hall and another guy was yelling at her. I walked straight up to her, we were face to face, and before I could block her she assaulted me with an ax handle on the bridge of my nose and forehead. It split me wide open.”
I was reading a local news article about a guy who was randomly stabbed, which is a popular pastime in Winnipeg. I could hear the Manitoba accent just by reading his quote, which got me wondering, does nobody else in the world wear gitch?
You're a bored child with your friends and, to alleviate this boredom, you decide to knock on people's doors and run away.One would call this game "Knock on Ginger" in my parts.
