Not all of us are as qual as the Senator, after all.

I've been enjoying this as well. Of course McGruder is my boy...but yr. right, he's got nothin on me

Oh man, that George W. Bush is totally not sudsy.

My phrases.
They're prolly pretty annoying, but I don;t care.
And, Yes; I use these phrases daily:

"Greetings, salutations, condominiums."
"How are you this fine-feathered morning/afternoon/evening?"

"Whoosie wadda wadda?" (when I don't understand something someone says)

i invented the worst phrase ever.

"whatever, tell it to your blog"

Reminds me of an episode of "The Office"

David Brent "I use exsqueeze me instead of excuse me, oh and wank you very much"

also on the answering machine "Please leave a massage"

don't forget that 'same shit, different day' is his.

if by worst you mean "awesome", then yes, sir, you have.

words are always cooler when truncated -- for example:

i appreciate that ----> 'prech

I have invented a term for something which I felt needed a name very badly. Of course I can't find a picture it, but I think we've all seen it.

So when you're walking behind a girl, (usually less than 22 or so years old), and she's got the waaay too tight, super super low-cut jeans on, but her shirt also stops about 3 inches short of the jeans, and she has female love handles that are squeezed up and out the side of her jeans by the incredible pressure:

"Parentheses"

... because, really, they sorta look like ( this ).

For excellent examples of this, feel free to visit East Towne Mall here in Madison on your next visit, sometime around lunch. You will see roughly 75 girls about 16 years old with astounding parentheses alllll over that place. And before the ladies get mad at me, these girls wouldn't have this issue if either they wore their actual size, or if their shirt were a bit longer.

I know what you're talking about, and yes, in some cases, clearly the girls are wearing too small a size. But I'm not entirely sure this is something to lambaste. Believe me, I'm not one of those people who endorses "fat acceptance" groups (because ultimately, being morbidly obese is not about accepting your fat, it's about compromising your health and longevity), but at the same time, I guess I'm glad that girls aren't afraid to do that these days. I would have been too self-conscious to pull that off when I was a youngster, but maybe it's good that girls aren't feeling as much pressure to be rail thin like the media presents? Anyhow, I can see your point, but just thought I'd offer a somewhat rational counterpoint.

I getcha, D. Believe me, I looked really damn hard for an example pic first so that it'd be clear that I'm talking about PROFOUND side fat, not just a slight bulge. I cannot tolerate girls without curves. Curves are what make girls look like girls.

Also remember that I am in the great state of Wisconsin, and it is no idle stereotype that says people here carry more weight on average than anywhere else except Samoa. A great number of young girls, and I'm talking 13, 14 yrs old here, have like 30 extra pounds on them above what most people would consider "healthy." I think maybe you have to move here from somewhere far away to notice, not unlike wierd house smells. And when these girls insist on putting the pasty, white, dimpled rolls out there for us all to see, it is more than plausible to "notice" it. Doesn't mean they're bad people, or flawed, or whatever. Nor do I wish their feelings hurt.

This is analogous to plumbers pulling up their damn pants already... such a stereotype, but at the same time so damn true.

I started using "titch" for some reason to express something between a touch and a pinch. Like, "can you move over a titch?" Reading it just now, it seems like it's probably pretty annoying.

My mother's been using that one for all the years I've been on this earth. Maybe you've got a little Brit in your bloodlines, Haq.

My friends use the word 'muffining', like how how the top of muffins go when baking them.

I'm using that

I now refer to a bearded face as a muzz. "Gimme the clippers, I gotta tame the muzz."

If I need to call someone I haven't spoken to in a while, I've got to "make with the howdies."

While we're on the subject of things that need words (parentheses), how about a hand gesture we could use? We really need a univerally-recognized hand gesture meaning "I'm sorry" or "my bad," to use when you do something stupid while driving. I often want to signal to another driver that I wasn't being a deliberate asshole when I cut you off a moment ago, rather I am a moron who can't drive.

Basically, the opposite of this:

GWB has Pillsbury for brains.

During a rousing game of balderdash one night, my friends and I decided to make the word "sluicy" into an all-pusporse slang word. For instance, if someone is pushing your buttons, you could say "don't get sluicy with me." Or, if a hot girl walks by, you could say "damn that's sluicy." It hasn't yet caught on with the general population, but don't worry it will.

Also, I like to say "dollars money" instead of dollars, too. Like, if someone says "how much did that pencil sharpener cost" I would say "it cost me ten dollars money."

kill me in the face.

I only talk the wicked Queen's fuckin' English.

You won't hear a raft of slang mollybunk hikin' out my earpan, bubbie.

You ever read The Great Train Robbery by Creighton? I know, Creighton, but it's not anything like his fiction - he wrote it in the 70's. He did a lot of research, and the dialog / events are as close to record as possible. Anywho, I ask because he uses slang of the period, and it's fascinating. Pistols are "barkers," and there are about 400 words for a con job... "dub lay, bone lay," etc. Damn good story.

If these girls are so much less self-conscious, why aren't they buying clothes that actually fit?
