I'll try to get serious here. I think we should all learn and know proper English. Good grammar and writing skills can help you land better jobs and contribute much to your life. I see that.
It's just that a little phrase, especially one known for the region you live in, is kind of cute and heart warming once in a while. There seems to me to be a time and place for both.
My great-grandmother called cars "machines" and "automobiles". Instead of telling a child to quit teasing, they would say "pestering". If you were "begging" for something....you were "making a nuisance of yourself". When my one grandmother thought someone absolutely didn't know what they were talking about, she would say, "They don't know, "sh_t from Shinola". For those that don't know Shinola was shoe polish! That's the only time I ever heard Grandma swear...when she said that. We laugh about it till this day.
That expression was one of my late father's favorites. He was a WWII vet. I actually do remember Shinola.

This morning Renee used the word curvation when showing the model's backside in her tsv.
Next time I think my butt looks big in my pants, I'm just going to shrug it off and say it's my curvation.

@Greeneyedlady21 Don't let your curvation cause you consternation
