I once worked for a guy who spoke "like a jesuit seminarian" or as some put it "verbal diarrhea". He would use the phrase "to make a long story short" about 10 times in a conversation, problem is he never did.

Recently I had one of the s/w engineers @ work ask me to reset the password on the anonymous FTP account...

Thing-a-ma-jig, whatsis and what's-its-face. I mean come on! Is that frickin' English or a trio of Croatian trapeze artists? :rolleyes:

I've started using bad grammar to be more like yous guys.

I hate the phrase "pretty much", it really sounds stupid!

"People can't write. They can't spell. They wouldn't know good grammer if it bit them on the a$$. " - Icemaster.

Its spelt GRAMMAR!

damn, Stevo, you beat me to it!


At least they are being friendly! When I am running at my usual 3-mile loop (it's a local hiking trail/wilderness habitat), only about 1/2 of the people I say hello to actually reply.

Whoops.

Well, there goes my argument. No more drinking and typing.

:D

:cool:

A reply is not required by a "greeting".

A "greeting" is not always friendly.

Shut up.

I'm just sayin.

:D

My favorite is "thingy-whatsit-junior"

I'm fascinated with the term "Hey, shorty!" Do people really know what that means?

How 'bout; wazzup dog. (?)


I suppose that ever-since yo nigga became unacceptable.

"dog" . .ain't it grand? . ..:rolleyes:

Biatch is one of my favs, dog. :D

You could live in the South where all the men say, "How 'bout it?"

Wouldn't that be youz ? :D
You ever notice who was the first to put their baseball caps on backwards? If you want to know stupid, take a look at the kids walking to school these days with all the baggy ghetto clothing. I'm talking about middle class and better white kids. In fact, can you think of anything a middle class white kid does or says that wasn't popular in the black community years before? This is what I might refer to as stupid.

um...it's supposed to be "dawg " :D

In the UK its easy to identify "stupids"....
Tatooes - male or female - arms, bums, shoulders.
Skin head (shaved) haircuts - male
Very short manly haircuts on over 40's women.
Pieced navels/eyebrows/tongues/whatever/genitals - female and male.
Exposed midriffs by women - ugly or not.
Excessive use of expletives in public places.
Exposing of body parts in public places.
Increasing binge drinking by females, followed by male drunk type behaviour.
Thats why we are the most disliked holidaymakers in Europe.
