Overheard at the Office

(I work with a bunch of cajuns.)

Coonass#1- "Ey, dey got dem big ribeyes on sale at de Winn-Dixie."

Coonass#2- "Yah? Which Winn-Dixie is dat?"

Coonass#1- "De one dat sells da trans-a-missions."

Me- "Wait, what the hell are ya'll talking about? I ain't never heard of a Winn-Dixie that sells transmissions!"

Coonass#2- (with a look and a tone as if explaining something to a 6-year old) "Look, you know dem half-gallons of da whiskey? Da glass ones wit dem handles built in to da bottle? Ya turn dem bad boys on dere sides, and dey look like one of dem dere trans-a-missions."

(They both look at me with an expectant look as if to say "anymore questions, ya silly redneck?")

Life in cajun country.
