lol You "son" people?

On this coast that is mad disrespectful.

I kind of understand what you are saying though but I normally use sport or youngin' but never son. They would get pretty heated.

that's Cali slang.

When I'm describing long periods of time I generally say, I haven't done such and such in a minute.

oh jeez, good to know.

I use the terms "man" for both ladies and dudes, always respect my elderly ladies by calling them "ma'am" (but I don't usually call elderly dudes 'sir' for whatever reason).

I used to use affectionate pet names for everyone I knew but that grew to be kind of weird, so I just razz people I like and they tolerate it.

I use ma'am and sir as well but even for middle aged folks. Idk it is still in-grained in me from the military.

Here is my vast repertoire of slang go-tos:

Cool
Man

Sometimes I say "awesome", but that's not really slang in its strictest sense.
At all other times, I speak normal American English. And where I live, it makes me sound like a f*cking genius. Which is sad.

Do you also get asked where are you from because of it?

No. I assume others just assume that my home town has a different accent and way of speaking, even though it's in the same state.

I wondered because people around my parts tend to ask me. They don't believe that I'm from this city which I'm technically not because I have been raised in a few different cities growing up but I have been here the longest now.

Don't know much slang. I'd speak in the English of Charles Dickens and that era if I was intelligent enough to. But I'm not. They were so economic and efficient with their langauge back then. Or Shakespearean times even, when language was pure poetry.
