Your own, personal language
 

We all have our own expressions we use, and no one else may know exactly why we say some of the things we do or what is really meant.

That said, what are some of your phrases..... and i mean besides, say, using the word interesting in place of boring?

Here are some of mine.....

"I love you, but..." - That's a preface I use when i think someone is wrong and I'm right.:D

"Good point." - That means I'm rolling my eyes cause you've stated something so obvious, it didn't need to be said in the first place. (There are one or two exceptions to that one though... if I've said it to anyone here, it was meant in it's pure sense. From this moment on though.....). :eek:

"Oh, you're sweet." - That means I find you sexually attractive and what are you doing tonight? :p

Okay, your turn!

My personal language. huh???
Very few words...
lots of hand gestures.
They get the idea across and my vocal chords don't get strained.

frantically looking through old MMSC post's to see if she ever gave me a "Oh, you're sweet" phrase. come on, there must be one here somewhere!!

I have in PM's.....

That counts. :p

Me too, especially when I'm driving..... :D

Bootleg = I use this for anything that is shady, ridiculous

Comedy = I use this in the same frame as bootleg, when I am sick of bootleg

Ish = Instead of saying "that is the ****" ..."that is the ish"

There is more that I can't think of...My friends and I have a lingo and it is great to have in some situations....When we are dealing with people we don't know, it is like we are speaking a foreign language in front of them sometimes, it is great

How fun!

How about a word for He-who-deletes-air-guitar-pic-on-Freebird-thread-before-others-can-view-it? :D

I declare "shenanagans" when I see something unfair. Like today, when they have Quarter day for lunch and we usually have cheeseburgers for .25!! They replace that with some cracked out chicken wings for .25. Lunch time shenanagans! 10 wings cost me 2.50? Last week I could have gotton 10 cheeseburgers for that! Scav, that's some bootleg ish!

Shizzle = shot (tequilla) ex: Saturday night, I'll be doing mad shizzles of Cuervo!!!!!

Re-up = get more of whatever I ran out of.. aka beer or whatever:cool:

There's more, but I can't go into it.

Sure you can! C'mon..... we're waiting... :D

you and I can create our own:cool: :cool: LMAO

..... and this would be before or after? :p

DURING...:D

Oh boy... um...

"Well, that's the rancid olive in my martini of misery"-- when something happnes to just really pile poop on top of more poop. Yes, I really do say that.

I'm very fond of "Always a pony somewhere" when I'm trying to find the bright side.

My husband says I and my brother have a verbal tic that he's heard no one else use, including anyone else in our family. He says we have a way of saying, "ohhhh" when someone tells us something. He says, translated, it means, "I'm really not very interested in what you just said, but I'm trying to be polite."

Now, how he figured THAT out I have no idea. Because he's exactly right.

Heeeeeeeeey.....I have heard that "ohhhhhhh" way too many times on the phone with you young lady....:mad:

Oh my God; you lie like a rug! I have NEVER said that to you!

That's another one I use a lot-- "you lie like a rug."

Oh, and "Daytime! What the--" Which I can't even explain, really. It's a line from one of the puppet shows at the zoo that somehow worked it's way into my vernacular.

Ohhhhhhhh....okay:p

I would have to say my most common saying is when someone does something a bit stupid I tend to mumble..."man you need to stay off that crack....."

I have a vast array of colorful phrases that have worked their way into my vocab, but most are lines from random movies or stupid things my kids say.

Schleepy-sleepy
Born-bored
Flowerpots- pot holes

You're not quite getting the inflection. It's more of an, Ohhhhhhhh....

Hear the difference? :)

And, while we're on the subject of language, here's a very entertaining essay:

http://www.slate.com/id/2146866/?nav=tap3

It's entitled 'In Defense of the Word 'Sucks'" Or something like that. Fun reading and I learned something, too!

OOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHH.......now I see....(oooooooooooooooookay Kev....just go with the flo brother....just gooooo with the flow)

Pork Chops: .... a woman's butocks... "she's got a couple nice nice pork chops"

Hips on Sticks: .... A too-skinny woman.

"Match" ... Thin red-haired woman

"medicine" Marijuana

"pharmacist" Marijuana merchant

"shorty" Any woman, short or otherwise

"Playing Cards" Sex... "I played cards with that Shorty from the bar."

"Toby" flatulence episode

"Header" Belch

"Bump a Grumpie" Number "2"

"Donna" ... loose woman... In honor of Donna "I Wanna," a fabled college girl a few of us got to know.

"Headache" ... a woman who likes to go out, but not do much more.

"Sideways" ... off course. "The deal's going sideways."

"Butafucco!!!" An exclamation of joy rarely to be used. Birdie putts of 20 feet or more or a $1,000 hit on a race would qualify.

I like those, I thought of a few more:

"phat doses" .. Pretty much anything you want a lot of

"Me wants it" .. Its the way I say it, anything I want real bad! I say it like Golum from Lord o the rings.

"Act a Donkey" .. Some person acting stupid or crazy, usually intoxicated

"Low" .. Something you do that you don't want people knowing about. Kinda short version of down-low.

"What cha workin with?"... usually a question I'm asking a female, could mean what r u drinking? Or just what's your status, Are you any good in the sack? stuff like that.

That generally leads to... "SHOW ME WHAT CHA WORKIN WITH!"

"Do I know you?" .. I'll say to people when they ask me for a favor. Or when I run into a Woman I may have slept with in the past.

"Mean Muggin" ... usually someone giving a dirty look.

"Serial/Cereal" for "seriously"... used mostly in the phrase, "Are you serial?" Not sure why. But that's the only one I can think of right now...
