For rude Nikomedes.
"For rude" was said a lot when I went to BYU in the 70's. I think it was mostly a Utah phenomenon.
I also heard, "For neat!"
More people in those days might also have said, "Hi, I'm from Spanish Fark."

I'll stop making fun of Utahns when they learn to pronounce "crayon," "miracle,"

Interesting that Utah has shifted more toward "soda" than "pop" based on those

That's the one positive trend

When I was a kid in Utah, no one I knew said “soda”. Now, no one I know says “pop”.

Don't knock it until you try it. Dalmatianflower isn't bad either, with a side of kimchi and rice.

Yes. However, most people point out the way we say mountain as something

Agreed, though there is another pronunciation that is definitely unique to Utah.

True, but most of the mocking is from the t being absent
