Be Careful Out There

by Joey deVilla on January 3, 2010

I’ve just come back from a grocery run with The Missus, and have this advisory if you need to hit the roads in Toronto (and many other places) tonight:

Winter road with pixel highway sign that reads 'The roads are wicked slippery!!!'

I’m not sure exactly where this photo was taken, I can safely say it’s probably New England – maybe Massachusetts. Over there, using “wicked” as an adverb meaning “very” is a pretty common occurrence. I wouldn’t be surprised if the “roads are wicked slippery” message alternated with something like “Don’t be a retahd! Get yeh cah ovah to Dunks!”

“Wicked” as an adverb is a pretty common occurrence in the Maritimes, too.
