Hahaha..when I was married, he was in the Navy and we were stationed in good ol' rotten Groton, CT. I would use this word regularly at the hospital I worked at and they had no idea what the hell I meant by it. Nor did they know the typical "fixin' to" or "buggy" or when I'd say "shut my mouth" and a bunch of other words and phrases. They said we had our own language down here and I suppose they were right...before then I'd never really thought about it and had just assumed everybody talked like we did as far as words and phrases. I have a thick Southern drawl and I got tired of them asking me to say things all the time just so they could hear how I sounded when I said it.

A friend of mine from the South took great pleasure in retelling a story of when she worked in New York and someone made fun of her saying "fixin' to" in conversation.
To which she replied. "Well I'm fixin' to kick your arse."
