Believe it or not, THIS is a source of regional conflict.
Okay, so this isn't like the burrito thing or the facebook groups, but sunshinethewerewolf demands your attention anyway.
Look at the photo above. Can you tell me what that contraption is called?
If you said "astro-jump," you are correct.
If you said "moon-bounce," you are from SoCal.
And if you said "inflatable castle," you are from England, dear chap.
Astro-jump is the common US term for this child's plaything. It is used in Washington, Georgia, Tennessee, Minnesota, Texas, Virginia, and the Bay Area. Even San Diego uses the term.
Moon-bounce is limited to parts of SoCal and Northeastern US, where the term should stay as it is heavily outnumbered by the Astrojump.
(Clearly I've run out of meaningful battles against Socal)
