Hick-Speak!

Or... Trucker-speak? Or... whatever. My new favorite word is: Ten-fer. When pronounced properly, it would be Ten-Four, but in hickspeak, it's ten-fer!

Examples of Usage:
"So will you come with me to the party?"
"Ten-fer, sister."

"Hey, is that the new Switchfoot Album?"
"Ten-fer, brother"


I know I'm not a hick. As a matter of fact, I'm rather obsessive about the proper use and pronunciation of every stinkin' word in the dictionary. But it's just so fun to say. Try it sometime... It's addictive. I use it every chance I get. People at work look at me like I've lost my mind. Remember, though, for the proper effect, one must speak it with slightly pinched in cheeks.

Happy Hickspeak!
