[lobbs]

Has anyone here on massillon proud ever refered to Massilon as "Da Milk"?

is it just me, or does anyone else not like this term? :wall:

[mommy]

this is what our younger generation refers to massillon as...you will hear it a lot with them.....check out their my space pages.....LOCATION: Da Milk, Ohio....everyone knows what this means....

why do you feel it isn't right????

[3bros]

No not everyone, sorry to show my ignorance:) Please enlighten me as to what it means:huh:

[tigergirl]

I suddenly feel old.

[mommy]

Da Milk=massillon

[3bros]

OH! I thought you meant the term itself had a definition.

[mommy]

it does....MASSILLON....

as i said....the kids say it all the time...hear it everyday....DA MILK

[DAWGH8R]

And where is :

Da Chocolate Milk ????

[mommy]

when JT at michigan next year....they will ask where are you from and he will most definately say....DA MILK!!!!!!!!

[DAWGH8R]

Perhaps someone can break down "da milk" for me. I can not come up with one relative reason why Massillon would be called this.

[DAWGH8R]

it does....MASSILLON....

as i said....the kids say it all the time...hear it everyday....DA MILK

Here, I thought it was what da baby was drinkin' !!

[3bros]

it does....MASSILLON....

as i said....the kids say it all the time...hear it everyday....DA MILK

No, Massillon doesn't mean DA MILK, they may for whatever reason refer to it as that.
My question was what does it mean, not what it refers to.

[ChronicTiger]

when JT at michigan next year....they will ask where are you from and he will most definately say....DA MILK!!!!!!!!

BS. I will bet my life he says Massillon.....

Da Milk has got to be the corniest thing I have ever heard.....

Do kids from Canton also refer to Canton as Da Milk? How bout Tuslaw?

[mommy]

no the kids in canton also know massillon as da milk......and yes, JT will say DA MILK....

as a matter of fact, he is with my son as we speak and when they get back, I'M GONNA SAY JT, WHEN YOU ARE AT MICHIGAN NEXT YEAR, WHERE WILL YOU SAY YOU ARE FROM....i'll let you know what he says....

BET HE SAYS DA MILK, OF COURSE......i know he will...all the kids say this...like i said, refer to my space....you will see for yourself...

for whatever reason, this is what they say.....

[Paul Brown]

Tuslaw is actually referred to as Da Corn.

[mommy]

okay...gotta another one for you...

my nephew just walked in the door...he is college bound here in a few years...i said to him, when you go to college and someone asks you where you are from what will you say......

GUESS WHAT HE TOLD ME.....DA MILK....

POINT PROVED.....the kids are going to say this is where they are from....NOT MASSILLON unless someone doesn't understand what they are saying, maybe someone like you and he would clarify this....

when JT gets back, I'll ask him too.....you would be surprised!!!!!!!!!!

[DAWGH8R]

Is this an urban thing, or does everyone know this ?? I googled 'da milk' and Massillon didn't come up anywhere in the 1,2839,933 hits that I got.

[mommy]

it's a massillon thing....if you over the age of 45 you probably wouldn't understand.....

[mommy]

and to say its an urban thing....everything always has to be about race on here....I HAVE LEARNED THAT FAST.....

[3bros]

Well, I certainly fall below the 40's, and I have no idea about nor have I ever heard the term before.

[mommy]

i just put in da milk massillon....and guess what i found.....just as I said...take a look at it....DA MILK CLEARLY STATES THEY ARE FROM MASSILLON.....

LOL!!!!

[Paul Brown]

I'm 26.... No clue about "Da milk". It also makes no sense either.

[mike_da_man13]

dont hold me to it....
according to urban legend or some dudes i used to take home from open gyms... its what drug dealers used to call massillon when they needed something to refer it to.

it is a super retarded nickname and in high school was the magic word to recieve a good beating.

[Paul Brown]

Maybe Canton folks can call it "Da Cereal" And Tuslaw can be "Da Toast"
Akron can be "Da apple juice"

[DAWGH8R]

i just put in da milk massillon....and guess what i found.....just as I said...take a look at it....DA MILK CLEARLY STATES THEY ARE FROM MASSILLON.....

LOL!!!!

I found 2. I guess EVERYONE does know !!!

[DAWGH8R]

and to say its an urban thing....everything always has to be about race on here....I HAVE LEARNED THAT FAST.....

Just called my daughter, ......... she's out shopping. She says that people do call Massillon, 'da milk' . However, she has no clue as to why, and said it is definately a 'black' thing. Don't take it as a NEGATIVE that something is refered to as a 'black' thing. GEESH !!

Called my son ,07 graduate, and asked him what "da milk" means and he said that is what kids from Massillon call Massillon, said its not a term he uses often and that it isn't just one race specific either. So now I know. Boy do I feel better:)

[thebili]

I hear it all the time.
If you have a myspace account... try hitting "browse" and searching for 18-25 year olds from 44646.
Your search results will pick up the cool kids from Massillon and about half of them state where they are from as "Da Milk". You dig?

I think trying to analyze its meaning is pointless, why do they call the New York the big Apple? or Cinncinnati Porkopolis?
Or Cleveland; Mistake on the lake? well actually that one makes sense.
But you get my point.

[Tiger2001]

Im guilty of using this term. But only way back in the day.

[Kick]

I am from Massillon, Ohio. That is "cool" enough for me.:wtf:

[lobbs]

No, Massillon doesn't mean DA MILK, they may for whatever reason refer to it as that.
My question was what does it mean, not what it refers to.

i think its just because Milk and Massillon starts with the same letter, thats all i got

[lobbs]

Tuslaw is actually referred to as Da Corn.

hahahahha:gogogo:

[DAWGH8R]

Since mommy is the seasoned pro at ' DA MILK ' , perhaps she can give us a history lesson on where it originated and exactly what it means or refers to.

I haven't found 1 person that knows any meaning behind these words, but I'm dying to find out.

So if some one made fun of your mommy you would say salt.

Dumb I know.

[hexumjunkie]

Da Milk Has Got To Be The Corniest Thing I Have Ever Heard.....

Do Kids From Canton Also Refer To Canton As Da Milk? How Bout Tuslaw?

They Refer To Canton As Da Dump.....or Da Drip........anyone Works For Me!

[hexumjunkie]

He Might Think That Now But Rich Rod And The Great Academic Program Up There In Ann Arbor Will Rid Him Of All His Slang In A Heartbeat. Bet Your Ass Rich Rod Wont Allow One Of His Players To Use Some Ghetto Slang On National Tv.

Capital Letters To Start A Word Are Only Needed In Titles.

[ChronicTiger]

I like Ellery Moore's take on being from Massillon....I highly doubt he would use this CORNY phrase......

:thanx:

MOMMY, FROM DA MILK

It's one thing for a teenager to have these corny sayings....but very amusing when adults feel the need to do it as well.

[mommy]

there are also many adults who use this term, mostly men....

bet you start noticing it more that you know what we are talking about now....

[02teleprograd]

I got some terms for ya

Soldja boy: Super soak the oooooo
Lil John: Drinks from a red gas can that says krunk juice on it. Get krunk with it. Skit skit skit like a water hose?

Or lets check snoop dog with his izzle every thing. For sizzle my nizzle dizzle.

Oh look I got my own grill!
Throw some D's on that!

Rolling on dubs!

All rappers...... so seems to be a black thing or at least start from that

[mommy]

I am an adult and do act like an adult, however, I have two high-school aged boys and their friends are over at my house constantly.....it seems this is where they like to come...they all love me and love that.....

I don't act like I am in highschool, I just have a lot of interaction with the boys and girls from the highschool and hear how they talk everyday.....

IT IS WHAT IT IS.....

LOL!!!!!!!!
