“pee-can pie” when your Grandma serves it at Thanksgiving

Not at my house. When there’s pecan pie at my house, there’s no talking at all. Just eatin’.

As a Southerner born and bred, I can tell you guys definitively. It’s “p’kawn pie” when you’re ordering it at the Picadilly Cafeteria, and it’s “pee-can pie” when your Grandma serves it at Thanksgiving. Geez, everybody knows that.

A cartoon character yelled at you? Dude!

That was a joke, son. Now pay attention, boy.

Come to think of it, that may have been Foghorn Leghorn.

I always prefer my pecans non-partisan.

Except as some cranky old man once yelled at me, “PEE-can? PEE-can? A PEE-can is where you relieve yourself out behind the barn! That’s a ‘p’kahn’, boy.” Come to think of it, that may have been Foghorn Leghorn.

Ice cream good.
Puns bad.

I wish I wasn’t still on a diet.
