They're like, "Oh, blah blah it's catty corner to my apartment" or some nonsense. Where's that one place? Catty corner to the supermarket. You know if you go down third street? It's not next door, it's catty corner.

My prole co-workers and customers certainly do. It bothered me enough to start a thread on the subject. Maybe it's a weird PNW thing, not sure.

That can also just mean two houses or buildings that are across the street from each other but one house over. Not as specific.

I've never once heard any of my relatives say it because it's only relevant if you're in a city

imho this thread is actually proof it's one of those things that city slickers assume is "prole" but is actually proof you just grew up near an urban environment with white people (admittedly increasingly rare).
