RE: ^^^ say something about the dood above you ^^^
^^LOL!
story time:
Aside from being an Air Force brat, most of my time was spent in southern NJ. Well, down there "water" is pronounced "wutter". Well, as close to spelling it for phonetics that I can get. Anyway...fast forward to Atlanta 1996, working on an install for enhancments for air traffic control. Coworker and I decide to go to the Atlanta Zoo. It was awesome. So, I'm standing outside of the flamingo pen. Friggin dirty birds if you ask me, but anyway. So this little girl (8 or 9) is standing next to me, and we both just happen to be admiring the mess these things make. So the little girl, in a southern drawl, asks me "Do you think I should get one of those feathers?" Pointing inside the pen. So in my best parental tone I say, "No, I don't think that's a good idea. You might slip and fall in the wutter(water)."
Perplexed this little girl stares first up at me, then down into the pen. Back up at me, and into the pen. Then her face lights up, and she looks back up at me and says "Ohhhhh, you mean the waa-a-a-a-ter."
EVERYTHING in my being not to just BUST out laughing. "Yes, dear...I mean the wa-ter." From the mouths of babes.
