As a mass-hole I'm always tickled by these examinations especially because there's so much local variation within Boston due to how varied the individual neighborhoods can be. The non-rhotic accent isn't pervasive as a lot of people have trained themselves out of it outside really historic urban centers - but there is a wide variety of bizarre terms we use.
