I was in Boston years ago yapping it up with a local in some bar and this guy couldn't stop bugging me about saying eh! It was all good natured.
Being a polite Canadian I didn't have the heart to tell him the correct pronunciations to labsta (lobster), woata (water) or cah (car). Loved the New England hospitality though.
