In lieu of the Friday Five (since there isn't one today), I'll take this seemingly innocuous 20 Questions quiz on my own personal regional English dialect...poached directly from the LiveJournal of the devilishly clever O.B. Jonathan:

1. A body of water, smaller than a river, contained within relatively narrow banks. A stream.
2. What the thing you push around the grocery store is called. A cart -- though I always prefer a basket.
3. A metal container to carry a meal in. A lunchbox (one word, folks).
4. The thing that you cook bacon and eggs in. Hmmm, could be the microwave, but I'll say a pan.
5. The piece of furniture that seats three people. If it's in the parlor, then it's a sofa. :)
6. The device on the outside of the house that carries rain off the roof. That would be the downspout.
7. The covered area outside a house where people sit in the evening. At my parents' house, it's the screenporch, but I think they're getting at a patio.
8. Carbonated, sweetened, non-alcoholic beverages. Sweet nectar of life! uh, that'd be (diet) soda.
9. A flat, round breakfast food served with syrup. Pancakes.
10. A long sandwich designed to be a whole meal in itself. A sub, baby!
11. The piece of clothing worn by men at the beach. swim trunks (hopefully not a Speedo).
12. Shoes worn for sports. Sneakers.
13. Putting a room in order. At home I call this "puttering," but I guess it's really "straightening up"?
14. A flying insect that glows in the dark. A lightning bug.
15. The little insect that curls up into a ball. A pillbug! My favorite!
16. The children's playground equipment where one kid sits on one side and goes up while the other sits on the other side and goes down. A see-saw -- sworn enemy of plus-size grammar school gals everywhere.
17. How do you eat your pizza? With mushrooms, and sometimes sausage and ricotta. If only I could have it delivered from the best pizza place in the universe, sigh...Pini's will have to suffice.
18. What's it called when private citizens put up signs and sell their used stuff? A garage sale (even sans garage).
19. What's the evening meal? Now I call it dinner; as a kid, supper was at 6pm weekdays, dinner was Sunday at noon.
20. The thing under a house where the furnace and perhaps a rec room are? The cellar -- boooooo!
