We would laugh at you if you got upset over soda, fridge, or couch in our parts. That or you would be in constant irritation cause those are every day words.

Im from Louisiana, and it's a coke, an ice box and a sofa.

A freezer may be an ice box but a fridge most definitely isn't.

Mija (dear in Spanish). I stop reasoning when people call me this. I can't focus. I get angry. I can become irrational in my decisions. No joke. It even reminds me of a smell. People who know this have joked around with it, but it's not funny. I have my fucken reasons. Don't toy with it.

The smell of Bacardi is also a trigger. Same reaction. Granted it's not a trigger word, but fuuuuuuck that smell. The word mija and the smell of Bacardi go hand in hand.

In my experience "dear" is a thing old ladies say when they're not saying "young man", lol.

Well - it's called a "synonym".

I'm pretty sure I don't have a synonym in my living room.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

“Love is the only bow on Life’s dark cloud. It is the morning and the evening star. It shines upon the babe, and sheds its radiance on the quiet tomb. It is the mother of art, inspirer of poet, patriot and philosopher.

It is the air and light of every heart – builder of every home, kindler of every fire on every hearth. It was the first to dream of immortality. It fills the world with melody – for music is the voice of love.

Love is the magician, the enchanter, that changes worthless things to Joy, and makes royal kings and queens of common clay. It is the perfume of that wondrous flower, the heart, and without that sacred passion, that divine swoon, we are less than beasts; but with it, earth is heaven, and we are gods.” - Robert. G. Ingersoll

No it isn't, commoner.

"Sofa" or bust.

I'd also add to that;

"Scent" instead of "perfume"
"Living room" instead of "lounge"
"laundry" instead of "washing"

And finally, "lunch" is what you have in the afternoon and "dinner" is in the evening. "Tea" isn't a meal, it's what you drink.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable."
