Good observation! Translation: Bostonian says, "I don't know" but means (add thick Boston accent for additional humor value) "What are you, the question lady?" or "If you don't know where Mass Ave is, you got no business there". Sometimes I wonder how they all develop this uniform antipathy towards others, this misanthropic suspicious glare. Is it something in the water?
