I've only heard my hillbilly cousins say "kitty corner."

The word catercorner comes from the Middle French word quatre, which means "four". English speakers modified the word to cater and used it to describe the four-dotted side of a die. The four spots on a die can form an X, which may be how cater came to mean "diagonal" or "diagonally". Cater was then combined with corner to form catercorner.

The intent of the term “dog eat dog” c r29, is to describe a Harsh and ruthlessly competitive environment or activity. Turning it into something cutesy like “doggy dog” completely misses the point.

I'm not R46, but it's OK to live in a town house. I think the objection is to calling it a "town home" like a Realtor would call it - so that you can cradle your mug in your "town home."
