I wonder how many people here actually know what a hunnyhug is.

[–] OminousOrange@lemmy.ca 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Likely very few if they're not from Saskatchewan.

A bunnyhug is a hoodie, for those wonderieg.

First time I moved away from Saskatchewan I mentioned my hunnyhug and no one had a clue what I was talking about. At the same time I had never heard it called a hoodie or hooded sweater. Man did they make fun of me.

I still think hunnyhug is the best name ever, it feels right, sounds good, it's perfection!

[–] systemglitch@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I'm not even sure how to pronounce that.
