Well done to the Honolulans for maintaining the queen's language in it's purest form

[JBlombier]

Apparently, being Dutch gives you a dialect from North Carolina. All three cities were from that state.

Hey Buddy. Hope you are well.

Is that the Simpson's Springfield? Do you talk like Cleetus?

[Neoteny]

I am well. I have no idea, the Simpsons aren't my thing. Yes.

A couple points of order: "boulevard" and "median" are interchangeable, as are "mountain lion" and "cougar" (except for the friendlier meaning of "cougar").

Distinctive answers were:
Do you pronounce cot and caught the same? different
What do you call it when rain falls while the sun is shining? sunshower
What do you call the small gray bug that curls up into a ball when it's touched? roly poly (this isnt quite correct but probably what I would call it... and we use the word roly poly in our lingo)

So much for following the instructions in the OP.

Interestingly, we answered these three questions exactly the same.

Donair, Mickey, two four.

Donair, Mickey, two four.

Donair is a funny one. Over this past summer I moved from Halifax to Calgary. Calgary seems to think donairs are a local thing, but Haligonians know better.

[2dimes]

I have only ever had them here. Every so often there's an article in the paper about how they are way better in the maritimes. How different are they from Gyros?

Have you had a schwarma from Jimmy's A&A foods?

[betiko]

Looool i get it: a donair is the canadian spelling for a donner kebab?

Not quite. A donair is similar to a donner kebab, but it is not the same thing.

I think that after such breath taking revelation you need to tell your audience a bit more!

Beef, very finely ground, spiced, and pressed into a slab, then cooked on a spit, thinly-sliced, and rolled up in a grilled pita with a sweet garlicy sauce and diced tomatoes and onions.

The one on the right.



Donairs were invented in Bedford, Nova Scotia, by Lebanese immigrant brothers back in the 1950's (ish), when the locals weren't as keen on the lamb & tzaziki-based food the brothers were selling initially.
