Hmm. Glancing through this, it seems to me that it fails to distinguish between regional terminology (e.g., apparently in New Orleans they call cottage cheese "cream cheese"; some places the thing you drink water out of on a playground or in school is called a "water fountain" and some places it's called a "bubbler") and items that only exist in a particular region (e.g., there's only one word, albeit with alternate spellings, for "lutefisk", it's just that lutefisk is generally only made in the Upper Midwest; an "egg cream" is a drink that's not widely known outside the NYC area, as far as I'm aware, but it's not that it's known by different names elsewhere, it's just not made elsewhere). Those, two me, are separate things, and this dictionary appears to consider them to be the same.
*ing bubblers.
Also, they are. One of the local Jewish delis makes egg creams.
I don't care what anyone says...it is a bubbler!

I don't like you either!I don't care what anyone says...it is a bubbler!
Today at work, I received an email from a customer that is in Canada and they had a revision on their order that is suppose to be different from their toque. I did not know that toque is Canadian for knit cap. Then speaking with the customer today on the phone, I swear that I was talking to Bob and Doug McKensie.
I speak Wisconsin and partial Minnesotan. I fail at Canadian. Mr. wore Black on the other hand....I swear he is one Rush song away from being Canadian.I researched it before I called the customer to understand what the hell he was saying. I asked 4 other people at work and they didn't know what it was. We have massive failure at work.
Just loves hockey.He and one of my buddies should hang out. Buddy flies a Canadian flag, had everyone sing O Canada in church at his wedding, and he isn't Canadian.
Toque, backbacon, jelly (short for jelly donut).....
JFC. Have you never seen Strange Brew?! It's a visual manual to the Canadian language!
Your buddy sounds like tCBG. (except the wedding part, he hasn't had a wedding)He and one of my buddies should hang out. Buddy flies a Canadian flag, had everyone sing O Canada in church at his wedding, and he isn't Canadian.
