People in Washington don't refer to each others.

Exclusively as comrade (not pictured)

Northeast US left off because they just say "Yo asshole"

I love that New England doesn't show a preference for any of the choices. My theory: Boston throws off the curve with "asshole" and "fucker" and the data scientists didn't want to cover cursing.

[-] Ashe 2 points 6 days ago

New England always on top, in our own way; confusing to those who aren't from around here.

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago

So there's PAL, where's NTSC, and SÉCAM?

[-] Sergio@slrpnk.net 17 points 1 week ago

nice maps, homes!

As a Washingtonian, as usual, I’m glad to barely be represented on a heat map of something.

[-] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 14 points 6 days ago

hey man, where's man at, man?

[-] FundMECFSResearch 3 points 6 days ago

I dunno my guy.

[-] Eyedust@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 6 days ago

Don't forget "guy" and "chief".

[-] TonyTonyChopper@mander.xyz 5 points 6 days ago

Hypothesis: you can go to the Great lakes region and just make random noises and people will be like "hey, what's up?”.

[-] AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago

Suggests that in Georgia, Americans don't refer to their friends

[-] AstridWipenaugh@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

Having male friends in Georgia is too homoerotic for their sensibilities.

Eastern Pennsylvania apparently has no word for Bros.

[-] fossilesque@mander.xyz 9 points 6 days ago

It's just a nod and a quickly whispered "Go Birds."

Anything goes in Michigan.

[-] Ironfist79@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

The last two aren't really used here.

[-] giuseppe@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

Guess I'm not your pal, fella.

[-] Dragonstaff@leminal.space 6 points 6 days ago

People really say "fella"? It seems centered around Louisiana?

[-] OldManBOMBIN@lemmy.world 9 points 6 days ago

I was upset that Kentucky didn't have much coverage, but then I realized that "Hosscat" wasn't one of the choices.

[-] stammi@feddit.org 6 points 6 days ago

You can call me Al.

[-] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 6 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Where is sexy-(square)pants? Man-in-tights? Curly-cock? Dick-broom?

[-] Machinist@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

You have some strange buddies.

[-] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 3 points 6 days ago

I never call them buddies, idk, that just sounds wrong.

[-] cubism_pitta@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

The top three are used in California.

I mainly stick with Dude and Buddy (Buddy being my go to for strangers "Thanks Buddy")

In my office a few years back I started ironically calling people "Homie" and that overtime morphed into a gender neutral term of endearment we all used for each other.

I really wonder where "Homie" fits into this

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

I love that Ohio is purple in all of these

[-] Mac@mander.xyz 5 points 6 days ago

Damn, no representation for "babe", "bbgrl", etc? I use those a lot.

[-] Coldmoon@sh.itjust.works 5 points 6 days ago

Georgians have no friends.
