\”Uh huh. Mhmmmmbye.\”
A Pittsburgh native thing. Especially female. At the end of a phone call as we\’re discussing the last details to meet or whatever issue, I notice that Pittsburgh natives tend to add a mmm before saying \”bye\”. I have never heard it anywhere else.
Of course, I have only heard it on the phone. So is it me or is it Pittsburgh?
Hmmm… but males do it from Omaha too. I notice that I do it, but really what I\’m saying is \”mmhmm\” and not just a \”mmm\” – as if confirming what came before (the prior conversation).
Didn\’t you do something similar when confirming catering for our going-away party! I remember, you were in my car!
