Words and phrases which may or may not confuse you, depending on your where you're from.
Homesteading = when someone pretty much stops their car before turning it around a corner.
-I was commenting to Sam the other day that the guy in front of us was "homesteading the corner" and he gave me a funny look. Maybe I got it from my mother, who is a Buckeye.
Cornhole = a game similar to horseshoe where teams take turns trying to throw a little bean bag though a hole in a platform made out of plywood.
-This is huge at IU, especially this Homecoming Weekend when the World's Largest Cornhole Competition will take place. I had never heard of this as a legitimate game other than "bean bag toss" until I got here. It reminds me of when my stepfather used to tell us to "shut your piehole!" Or was it cakehole...Either way, dessert.
Euchre = card game similar to Hearts or Spades, mostly found in the Midwest but spreading across the country due to Yahoo! Games.

to be fair, cornhole is an offshoot of washers which is something like horseshoes.
