    bofum
    coo
    aight

    All text talk...its dumb

    No homo... Who came up with that???

    Wicked, epic ... I agree with both of those and anything like them

    Totally! .... yup it is annoying.

    piss, wiz, tits, titty, etc

    Also, cursing like a sailor. It does NOT sound tougher, more dramatic, more intelligent, witty, clever, grown up or badaz so I wish people would stop.

    THOUGH I myself do think it's ok to have fun with words, being goofy and happy/silly, etc. So if the person is happy enough, laid back, what have you... Then it's no big deal!

    You don't think badaz should be on the list???

    A lot of this will depend on one's culture - in the UK 'potty' is the word for the small plastic pot that toddlers first use when they are being toilet trained. There is no other word for it. And isn't it the norm to refer to one's father as 'daddy' in Southern USA?

    My own list would include 'nom nom nom' - we are not the Cookie Monster! :laugh:

    I detest "freshie pow pow" as in new snow, fresh powder. Mostly said by the snowboarders. Sorry guys just don't like it.

    Being a Texan I have never heard this and I pray to the FSM that I never do.

    I have a woman in my office that greets you with "Howz-it?" I always want to ask "Howz it what?"

    Is the woman Hawaiian? Because to be fair, that's a "local" term out here. It's considered part of Pidgin, which is kind of the local slang/dialect. If she's from Hawaii then her saying Howzit is similar to someone from Mexico saying "Hola"... or someone from the south saying "Hey y'all"... or anyone saying "what's up" when they're not actually talking about the ceiling/sky ;-) Just saying ;-)

    If you have had sex, you should be able to refer to "them" by their proper anatomical terms.

    It is a vagina with labia NOT a "hoo-haa", "hoochie", nor "lady bits". It is a penis with testicles not "knobs and balls", "my little blah blah blah" nor "manly parts".

    You're old enough to have had sex-ed. I know you know these terms.

    Because what? " oh sweet wife of mine, can i put my penis in your vagina? You're so sexy" sounds just oh so romantic.

    does he really ask?
    doesn't the moment make that such a retorical question that would head to a total buzzkill?

    wait... can I say buzzkill?

    :laugh:
    Haha, of course not! but using those words in specific settings can be.... buzzkills

    "Uh, ok, have fun with that."

    oooh man, REALLY?
    "be back, I gotta hit the bathroom"

    "uh, ok.. you have fun with that" translates to "you really didn't need to tell me"

    Aaaah nuts, it's Howzit??? I always thought Chalene Johnson was saying "House it"! Like house music. Huh. Learn somethin' new every day!
