Oh boy, hick-meets-the big-o slang...
Bumkin Slang
Bugeaters - I have no clue why but the older Nebraskan generation refers to themselves was bugeaters, not in a good or bad way "Oh, back when I was a young bugeater..."
Druthers- I don't really know how to explain this... it's like saying "well, if things went my way _______"
Piddling - screwing around, sniffing the roses, etc.
Pecker poles - baby trees, usually the crappy ones that don't look like they'd make it through winter. Yes... we insult trees here.
"Druthers, we'd be out o' here already if y'all weren't piddlin' around the pecker pole like a bunch of sissy misses"
Clear as mud - confirmation that you understand something... kind of.
Tinkletoes - fancy rich woman in heels.
My Bessy - when referring to the biggest and healthiest cow in the pasture.
Ruff instead of roof
Warsh instead of wash
Crick instead of creek
Cityfolk Slang
The Big-O - Omaha, Nebraska.
Huskers - Nebraskans, especially the ones who live in the capital.
Loosie - someone who tries to bum cigarettes off of people on the streets (sometimes a lighter).
Brewski - beer
Skipping stones - dodging a question
Now, if you're smarter than the average boobear... - If you have any wit about you... (used by teachers during lectures, or when someone is explaining something)
"Now, if you're smarter than the average boobear, you'll realize that operant conditioning works off of a schedule of reinforcement."
