My co-worker, a sassy nurse from Newfoundland, asked me if I knew how to send her friends a video through email, because the video was too big. I said to her that she should start up a DropShots account. She could download her video to the site, and then send the link to her friends via email.
She had her mouth slightly open like I rattled off Shakespeare in Greek. I asked her, "Was that a little over your head?"
She replied, "Yeah, explain it to me in Newfie-nies." *
I broke it down to her, only in my own cheeky way...
"Well, you put ta ting in ta ting... " Translation: Well, you put the thing in the thing...
* We refer to people from Newfoundland as Newfies... they also have a unique accent. Check out the show, "This Hour Has 22 Minutes," or the movie, "The Shipping News," with Kevin Spacey.
