Bostonese

A term collectively used by the fans of New Kids on the Block to describe the NKOTB members' accents when they speak. Being from Boston, the band members have distinct accents that the fans have embraced and even mimic to an extent.

Practically any word ending in (-er) or (-ar) can be translated into Bostonese by replacing the suffix with (-ah), such as in "glittah" "sweah" or "bettah."

Bostonese: Joey Mac bettah be tweeting on Twittah tonight, or I sweah I might have a heart attack!

Plain English: Joey Mac better be tweeting on Twitter tonight, or I swear I might have a heart attack!

Mighty Mighty BossToneS

A band that began the genre of "ska-core". Excellent band, most people just suck too much dick to realize how amazing they are, but for some reason, still rock out to Linkin Park.

All the BossToneS albums are amazing.

the mighty mighty bosstones

One of (if not the) greatest ska bands ever. Famous for their song "The Impression That I Get" the bosstones brought good music back to the charts. Sadly they ended their career and now radio and tv is being infested with emo, pop, and dirty rap.

The Boston based music group The Mighty Mighty Bosstones are amazing.
