New England is legendary for the use of the term "wicked". It is nothing more than a way to add value to what is being said. Some examples and translations. "That's wicked cool"- Above average excellence "That's wicked shitty"- It sucks "Something wicked weird happened"- You are not going to believe this

Let's combine mine and yours "WICKED STEERS AND WICKED QUEERS"

Yooo facts! I knew a chef when I trained in Maryland on the country side who was from Newyork. He always said, "BOOM BOOM BOOM; BALLGAME"

Common Oklahoman Phrases Do what? You’re in a conversation with a friend or co-worker, and in the middle of it, they say “Do what?” Your response may be, “I don’t know, what we are doing?” .... I didn't know that was common but goddamn am I embarrassed. I say "Do what?" So freaking much, I say it before I even process what I've heard. It's like a knee jerk reaction.

Re Oklahoma Sports Thunder up Once you’re settled in Oklahoma, it won’t take too long before you hear about the Thunder—Oklahomans are so proud of their hometown major league basketball team. Basketball is the one sport in Oklahoma that unites everyone. “Thunder up” means to get excited about cheering on our home team. As in, “We’re going to go thunder up at the game tonight.” Bedlam Oklahoma is home to two well-known universities: Oklahoma State University, otherwise known as OSU, and University of Oklahoma, better known as OU. The two schools are only an hour and a half apart, and they share a good-natured rivalry when it comes to their sports teams, especially American college football. The competition between them is often referred to as “Bedlam.” A Bedlam game between the two schools is played every year to determine which school is the best. Whether you bleed crimson and cream for OU or have your pistols firing for OSU, this is one issue where you have to choose a side. But all in good fun, of course. .... There's also the Red River Shootout which is between OU and TX.
