    I think packy (liquor store) is a shortened version of package store. In the midwest we either say liquor store or package store.

    I love how the Brits didn’t know what a parlor was when I have only heard it used in the UK. I am in the south so parlor is not used, to my knowledge, for a smaller room. Maybe ‘den’.

      @ Used to be British too. I’m in GA, unless it was used in huge plantation homes and such…. I do not know. Maybe in Savannah or Macon. Like we say ‘foyer’ instead entry-way.

    Aluminum was actually the original British word, coined by scientist Humphrey Davy. Another scientist coined the term Aluminium after him, because it sounded more elemental. Blah blah time, blah blah one became more popular in the US and the other in the UK. But Josh is wrong, Americans did not remove any letters, the British added them.

    It's called a package store because of MA Open Bottle Law. In MA it's illegal to openly drink alcohol on the public streets, that's why you can't drink beer or a cocktail from a restaurant on the street, the restaurant patio doesn't count as public. So when unhoused people would go into liquor stores, the cashiers would package up the bottle in a paper bag, and they could drink in the park, on the street, etc w/out breaking at least that law.

    25:10 - I grew up in Northern New Mexico and Central New Mexico, and I've always heard it as a "turn signal," and we'd add "Left" or "right" at the beginning. I've heard Blinker as well, but I like "the indicator."
    Sounds be'ah (better). 😆

    57:00 - I think in Las Vegas, NV, you can still take your alcoholic drink outside and walk up and down the Strip. Well, it was like that when I was last there, but it has been a long while since then.

    A parlour is a fancy front room where you receive your guests. We didn't use our front room in my house growing up on the West coast for that. It was my dad's tv room and my brother's drum and piano room.

    Good god what a load of drivel first 4 mins garbled inane chatter, shouting chatter, around 8:31 'when the war ended - - - 'I don't know I wasn't around then'! No but you have heard of books/documentaries history, you should have learned from that not being around then is no reason or excuse for being ignorant and unaware! I skipped around a bit but had to stop 15:40! Definitely not my cup of Tea eh!
