Reading an article on slang and what region it came from ( Yinz being the most well known according to the article)
Being from Western PA, we use redup (as in ready up or clean up) and slippy as in slick or icy.
There was an interesting citation in the comments that attributed "Janky" to Will Smith and I was wondering when that happened and if it had anything to do with the MTG slang jank and janky that I have heard since the late 1990's.
Also, many of the "slang" terms seem to be less regional (Like Pop in just one area), and more like pockets of culture across the country.
Bubbler for a water fountain doesn't seem to far of a stretch, but Whoopensocker and Pinkletink, seem not just regional, but generational.
What local slang do you guys know of or have heard?
When did you first hear jank or janky being used?
