Cake party!

That advice sucks. If you go grocery shopping when you’re not hungry, you end up with a bunch of stuff that you don’t want when you are hungry.

Lol. True, though. I’m the type that usually tries to make a nearly definative list of things before I go shopping so that I get enough to cover what I need and so I’m less tempted to add stuff on a whim. But the downside is that I always end up with stuff at the end that I don’t really want to eat, usually the more healthy choices.

A jog in the rain rocks hardcore. Especially the looks you get from people all bundled up under their umbrella.

There comes a point where the funny differences between people from Massachusetts and actual humans just becomes grating. They’re glazed donuts, you fucks! GLAZED!

HONEYDIPPED!

Honeyglazed.

You have a filthy mind, young man.

Seems more like mmalloy with the dirty mind. Honey glazed is clearly a doughnut, honey dipped, that’s open to interpretation!

Honey glazed is for ham. Donughts are either chocolate or maple glazed.

There are honey glazed doughnuts, either way, “glazed” is clearly food, “dipped” well
 Urban Dictionary says this. So it’s clearly mmalloy with her head in the gutter.

It’s not my fault you non-Bostonians say it wrong!

Donuts.

Seriously, you weirdos, stop putting honey on your doughnaughts. If you want honey, just have baklava.

It’s not our fault that Boston was apparently settled by Kromaggs who don’t know how to speak English.

I lived in eastern Mass for over four years and I don’t recall anyone referring to their doughnuts as dipped, only glazed. Hell the Dunkin’ Donuts website doesn’t list a single “dip” doughnut on it, only glazed.

Dunkin’s has since changed the name, but much like people still refer to soda as “tonic” (supermarkets often still have a “tonic” aisle) a lot of people (and other donut businesses in the area or so a quick google search tells me) still call them “honey-dipped.”

As evidenced by Bahimiron’s rage.

It’s like The Garden. That’s what it’ll always be. We don’t do change!

Edited to add: To clear up this issue I am conducting an entirely scientific survey of people in the Boston area who happen to be my Facebook friends. I rest assured they will not fail me!

By “soda” do you mean “soda water” (aka club soda, seltzer) and by “tonic” do you “tonic water”? If you do you should know those are actually different things.


Dunkin’s is national, so they have to change it to English to appease real people.

Most people I know around heah that ah bahn and bred in this areah call 'em honey dipped, though.

Do a search for “honey dipped donut” and you’ll see plenty of hits in discussion about places in Saugus, Ipswich, Malden and even Rhode Island. Or check out the menu of a smaller chain that hasn’t spread nearly as far as Dunkies. And even Dunkin’s was referring to glazed donuts as honey dip until a corporate change about four years ago.

Is this one really that hard to figure out? By soda she means Coke, Pepsi and all of your other sugary flavored carbonated beverages. At my local Stop ‘n’ Shop the sign still refers to the soda aisle as the tonic aisle. Or in the part of eastern Mass where you lived did they refer to soda as pop? You’re sounding kinda like this guy who knew who lived in Ayer for two years and then told everyone he was right on the ocean and five minutes away from Boston.

Edit: Based on this map, I’ll assume you lived in the part of eastern Massachusetts that’s in western Pennsylvania.

No. Which tells me you did not pay attention the four years you were in Massachusetts!

Tonic = soda. Like Coke, Pepsi, etc.

My dad always called it tonic, but he only bought store bought brands, so I grew up absolutely convinced that tonic was like, your Stop and Shop brand soda, while Coke and Pepsi were called soda because they were brand names.

True story. I’m actually a little sad you don’t hear it as often as you used to. I like when supermarkets still have those tonic aisles!
