Pop has always meant grandfather to me / in this area.

We had Grandma and Grandpa followed by their surnames. My nieces and nephews call my Mom, their grandmother, MeeMaw. They don’t really have anything to do with my Dad though so I am not sure if they’d refer to him as PeePaw or some other equally goofy name.

Is this a regional thing or am I the only one unsettled when someone calls their dad father and mom mother. Maybe it’s my Catholic Church upbringing

Yeah me too it’s very formal and totally feels quite Protestant and stiff in an over here context too.

I sold my SNES to buy some N64 games or something back in the day. I still hold it as one of my biggest regrets.

Carry on, Pre-order thread.

My mom referred to her parents as mother and father. I always called mine Mom and Dad, though at some point I started referring to my Dad as Pop.

I call my mother Ma Ma and my father Da Da but it's also part of our particular culture.

Carry on, Pre-order thread.

My biggest regret is I was looking at 3 albums to get as I had a visa gift card expiring soon and I didn't know what to spend it on. I ended up ordering Rubblebuckets new album because it said only 40 copies left on bandcamp which is why I ordered it instead of the urban exclusive of five seconds flat by lizzy mcalpine. Now lizzy mcalpines album is no longer available because it sold out. If I had known it was going to be out of stock soon I would have ordered that album instead. Shes not my favorite artists but I really liked what I heard from her. I do want this album but not enough to get the standard black album. I'm so annoying at myself as I was so close to having a album that was semi rare. I don't have many isos but this is something I'd like to have but I'm not paying scalper prices for it.

This was a really great album that’s got a repress campaign going right now. Had a similar sound to Yeasayer around that time. He ended forming Mass Gothic after they split

When speaking of them I go more formal. Speaking to them I say mom/dad

Just added audiophile black to the vinyl merch.

Sounds pretty great on iPods. Audiophile Black is good with me. High hopes on spinning this on the main system.

My mom’s family were from rural southern Illinois, she grew up on a farm. I wonder if there was a bit of German influence on it, with their Southern drawls it would always come out as Muther and Fadder but who knows.

Ok - now I have to ask…where So. Illinois?

Are we talking Cairo? Carbondale? Murphysboro? West Frankfort? Vandalia?

Not that far south, (if you’re from Chicagoland anything south of I-80 is considered “Southern IL”). They were from Olney, IL (well a farm about 20 minutes outside of Olney) It’s about parallel to St.Louis but in the Southeastern part of the state, closer to Indiana.

Some fun facts about Olney: it is one of the few places in the US that has a population wild albino Squirrels. Also, they used to be the home of Roadmaster bicycles.

You have to be shitting me.
The Home Of the White Squirrel?

My Grandfather, Dr. Wendell Robinson, was the Pastor of Olney United Methodist Church.
He started in 1965 and my grandparents lived there after retirement until I was 14/15 yrs. Old.
They were in Olney for 22 years.
110 Locust Street.
I’ve eaten about 3 metric tons of Dairy Queen on form the spot on West Street.

Crazy small world.

Was thier address Olney or one of the.smaller towns near there? Clairemont, Noble, St. Marie?

Ha! Small world indeed! We're Methodists too. I will have to ask my Mom, but I would assume she and the rest of the family were members of your grandfathers congregation.

They were technically Noble but yeah, DQ, Hovey's, The Holiday were all places we frequented often, when we made it into town.

Yup, Talked to my mom and she said shed remembers Dr. Robinson. Also, she wanted to stress that she went to East Richland High and NOT West Richland High. Apparently, there is a big difference between the two schools.
