Stupid Slang
 
I try to stay away from it as much as possible but some friends have fallen pray to them. They call their cars "whips". When my friend first said it i thought he was some kind of masochistic, like why would you have a whip around ? I say "dig" sometimes about things i like aka "i dig that new sonic youth record".

so what stupid slang do you hear from around where you live? do you participate?

i don't like stoner slang. i do use some of it sometimes though.

floatingslowly 08.30.2007 09:22 PM

I started saying "dude" in 1982 after making fun of someone who used it all the time.

now I call my mom "dude".

sonic youth slang.

specifically, "holy shit i drank kaluha last night and i got RATHER RIPPED!"

"YR so cool in YR dickies pants."

"man i just got GOO on my DIRTY panties, lemme throw it in the WASHING MACHINE."

"Did you say WASHING MACHINE???? "


"I sure did, SISTER!"

"Oh man, dat's COLD man - dat's EVOL! "

"Sorry about that, baby! Look, to make it up to you, how about if I let you stroke my DIRTY MASTER-DIK til I shoot my GOO all over those NYC GHOSTS AND FLOWERS? "

"I'm confused. "

"Of course you are baby, because CONFUSION IS SYR 3 FEATURING JIM O'ROURKE. "

"Don't GO there! You ain't getting' none of MY stuff unless you pay me A THOUSAND. (LEAVES). "
"Hey! Come back! This is BAD because the MOON is out and my penis is RISING! EXPRESSWAY TO YR VAGINA"

YEAH.. FUCking stupid sonic youth fan slang.. goddamn..

Tons, man:
man
dude
bro
breau
yeh
rad
bam
changing words like "crucial" into "croosh"
ehhhh (for 'hey')
a billion more weird ones that only make sense to me and friends...

Everyneurotic 08.30.2007 11:00 PM

there was a time i used to say "nah brah" while speaking spanish.

Cantankerous 08.30.2007 11:45 PM

- "yr"
- when people say things like "twat waffle" and the like. that's not even a real term, some COCKSUCKER (my favorite, "real" term) made it up.
- and the shortening of words that k-krack mentioned is extremely irritating as well.

I really hate it when someone calls Indianapolis "nap-town". Indy is fine, but nap-town just pisses me off.

Shit, I meant to say that I say these ones. There is a ton of shitty slang, though.
"mint" meaning good... I don't know if this is everywhere, or just here... I hate this one.
uhh.. overall 'ghetto' slang is shitty... you know the ones...

Mint's a propper bissa words minds bluh, innum? I's use 'ee alls time mind, assa alls th' kiddies round y'r.

Although, to be fair, I can't imagine people outside of the Westcountry using it and not sounding like a prick.

I'm a big fan of slang. As mode of expression rather than quasi-ironic. But one must be careful, you can easily come across like a prick. I think, in fairness, my slang more comes under the caveat of sociolect than it does contrivance.

Toilet & Bowels 08.31.2007 07:18 AM

being excedingly middle class, slang is not a mode of expression that i am really entitled to participate in, although i can admire it from a distance, innit.

sarramkrop 08.31.2007 07:22 AM

Yes, because the majority of people who are poor, sway, are also more ignorant than people who come from wealthier backgrounds. Like it or not, that's how it is.

i wouldn't bring poverty into it, it's more of a working class thing, that middle class teenagers like to copy.
