Watch me rip off of Pamie here. At least I linked her and acknowledged the source, right? But I really like this entry, where she details the words and phrases that she says entirely too often. I too am occasionally guilty of the one-track vocabulary, and although you may have picked up some of my stock phrases just from reading this journal, here's a few more that you should get used to just in case you ever meet me in person. Many of these are peculiar to LT and I when we are together. We've been together a long time, and unfortunately we've acquired a sort of private vernacular. We try to tone certain things down in public. For example, chicken noises. Come on, chickens are funny, admit it. LT and I bawk and squawk at each other a lot. Lots of chicken noises. But a married couple making chicken noises is not necessarily funny or cute to the world at large, but rather a bit scary, so that's mostly an at-home thing. Here are some words and phrases I personally say way too much: dang, yikes, ack, describing things as "retarded" (not very PC of me, I know), oh for crying out loud, jesus tap-dancing christ, yeesh (when something is disgusting), describing things as "mysterious," and squinky (as in "don�t go getting all squinky on me." Let us not forget all the retro slang I am intent on reviving: square, squaresville, dig, far out, pumps my nads, gnarly, bum trip, wack, jive turkey. A lovely mixture of the '50s, '60s, '70s, and '80s. LT and I like to make pirate noises and pirate jokes. Here are some examples to get you started. Why I assume that you too wish to make pirate jokes I do not know. I warned you it was strange. However, I really do have an alternate side to my sense of humor that is more connected to reality. Really, I do. ---mimi smartypants back/forward |
