BunnysBastatrds 2,306 Posted January 2 I’m very amused at all the different news people from around the world in the last thirty one hours. Extremely entertaining to hear how they pronounce it. Lightens the mood here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mufaletta 70 Posted January 2 Dementia Joe even borrowed a page from Kamala's playbook and tried to pronounce it with a Cajun accent last night in his mumbling 2 minute speech. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawkeye21 2,380 Posted January 2 I like pronouncing it Nawlins but it's usually pronounced New Orlins around here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
easilyscan 856 Posted January 2 It's actually the chocolate city. "We as black people, it's time, it's time for us to come together. It's time for us to rebuild a New Orleans, the one that should be a chocolate New Orleans" Then Mayor Clarence Raymond Joseph Nagin Jr. January 2006 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jbycho 579 Posted January 3 I call it New Orleans. It's kinda gross, but I can see it's appeal to some. Spent a lot of time there. It attracts unique individuals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BunnysBastatrds 2,306 Posted January 3 I say it like it is is, New Orleans. Not Nawlins or New Orleanesss. Whenever I’m traveling, when I used to, when I met da wemens, I’d say, “Very nice to meet you. I’m Bunny and I’m from New Orleans darling. What’s y’all’s name. Since I’m not from here, any tips?” Instant panties dropper. Next time you are at an airport bar, sit by a hot woman, and ask where sh is from and what’s yer name darling. I’m not from here. I’m from New Orleans.” You won’t believe what happens next. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardcore troubadour 14,906 Posted January 3 I’ve been all over these United States. Bourbon Street is by far the most overrated. Gaslight in SD much better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MDC 7,113 Posted January 4 New Orleans is awesome. I wouldn’t want to live there, but the food, music and culture are unlike anywhere else in the US. One of our best cities. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
