people from stockholm call everything that's outside of the city spenaten, "the spinach".

That's nicer than the people of Antwerp, who call the rest of Flanders a parking lot

[–] KurtVonnegut@mander.xyz 4 points 1 day ago

Antwerpen is t stad en de rest is parking.

There’s also tjotahejti, which is a spin on Otaheiti, an older name for Tahiti.

[–] Dojan@pawb.social 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

We have "the boonies", referring to "the boondocks" or, um, there was a song. I wanted to fuck with you a little but you are so nice.
