A Po Boy.
In case you don't know it's a type of sandwich. Actually, it's just a sandwich with a different name. Nick and I ordered these for dinner last night. Do you know how ridiculous it sounds to order a "po boy" when you care about diction?
Say it. Outloud. Now.
Po Boy.
Oh sure, you can say it if you add a southern twang, but will the southern waitress coin you a fool when you use non regional dialect to say "I would like a" and then pop in a twangy drawl with "po boy?" I personally had to preface my order with "I am painfully not southern so I would like this- and I can't say it correctly" while pointing to which po boy I wanted.
