[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another native vs. transplant test: Transplants call it WaPo. Natives call it the Post.[/quote] Disagree. I use both interchangeably. Multi-generation Washingtonian, and immediate family member of a former Post writer. It might be an age thing, I'm in my 30s.[/quote]I'm wondering the same. I used to say the Post myself (I'm in my 60s) but now say WaPo primarily because that's how it's used on DCUM. Also, when I post on FB I assume that people who don't live in the area won't get the "Post" but can guess at "WaPo." Anyway all this is to say that I think it's a usage that's occurred due to the Internet and younger people most likely spend more time on my the internet than us old farts. [/quote]
