Michelle Buteau reveals her favorite New Jersey slang.
Transcript
00:00 Hey everyone, I'm Michelle Buteau
00:01 and this is my hometown slang.
00:03 When I was growing up,
00:08 every time you said something that was like
00:11 sarcastic or not true,
00:12 you just followed that sentence with, "Psyche!"
00:14 I mean, why did I do that?
00:16 It was just like at a 10 at all times.
00:19 I was giving a 10 and I should've been serving a six.
00:22 Like, that's not okay.
00:23 "Psyche!"
00:24 It was fine.
00:25 See what I did there?
00:26 Nobody cares.
00:27 Mad.
00:28 Mad a lot.
00:28 Like, "Ooh, that food was mad good."
00:30 Or, "Ooh, that line was mad long."
00:32 Like, people in Jersey were so mad
00:34 we actually have to use it for a good thing
00:36 at some point too.
00:37 Oh my God.
00:38 And when you really like somebody,
00:40 you'd be like, "Oh yeah, I like 'em a lot.
00:42 I was sweatin' them."
00:43 What?
00:44 I was sweatin' them?
00:45 Ooh, that movie.
00:46 I was sweatin' that movie so hard.
00:48 I was waiting in that line mad long.
00:50 "Psyche!"
00:51 I bought my tickets in advance.
00:53 - Perfect.
00:56 - I know.
00:56 (upbeat music)
