The most incorrect American way to mispronounce "quesadilla." Anyone who uses this word should be immediately kicked out of whatever dining establishment they're in.
American: excuse me, can I order two case of dillas?
Mexican restaurant worker: (sarcastically) sure. do you also want a free side of whack-a-mole?
American: oh, is that the one that's, like, the mashed-up of-uh-condo? see.
Not UPPER CASE, not lower case, but sPoNGebOB cASE.
Bryan: I'm not gonna get my cancer treated, the medical bills would bankrupt me
US healthcare system: tHE mEDiCAl bILLs wOUlD baNKrUpT mE
(The submission form wanted me to use the word 'spongebob case' in the example. But it didn't serve the joke, and the meme is widely known, hence this unnecessary text. Ideally the editor will remove this text before publication.)

In the 1980’s in Essex county, Nj, I worked in a restaurant where the wait staff was predominantly white and the dish room was predominantly black. (I maintain I was the last white American man to work as a dishwasher!) whenever any of my coworkers wanted a quarter for change they would always ask for a “case quarter.” No explanation was asked for, none given. But it was fairly widespread urban slang at least in the mid eighties in northern nj.
Just now, I’m watching an old film on tcm, “flying down to Rio”, and one of the principle characters asked another for a “case quarter” again looking for a 25 cent piece for smaller change. No further context given.
Brings back wonderful memories, as well as a few questions!
