I so want to know those codes and follow them like a whipped dog.

This sort of thread makes me think that there's a lot of people who need less internet and more hugs.

more hugs from hipsters.

i thought it was unhip to make such public declarations, but maybe the code has changed over time-- in any case, best wishes.

more like guns :P

i used to wear cabbie hats/caps/etc pre-2000 simply because a) it was cold, and b) available hats didn't fit me, but britney spears and chav girls ruined those for me. after a number of hatless years i've recently switched to fedoras, which i hope will be safe for some time to come.

i hope these butterfuckers never catch on:

A little too ironic...and, yeah, I really do think...






IT'S LIKE RAAAAAAINNNN ON YOUR WEDDING DAAAAAAYYY!!!!!!!

A decent read:

Non-Brits using British slang - that's hipster. On the other hand, Brits saying 'Dude' just makes my blood boil (in spite of the fact I do it all the time).

Can't Murikans say "row", "cheers", or "bugger"?

hey! i resent the accusation-- i had seen the type before but had no name for it until you eengleesh posted endless threads and pictures about them.

can i help it if the sy gossip board is my picture dictionary?

Parts & Labor rule.
they put on a hell of a live show.
I hae not seen them with their new drummer though.

Have you ever heard an American saying 'cheers'? It's like listening to your parents' sex sounds. Just wrong. What Americans don't understand is that, seared into the hearts and souls of every true Brit is a list - you have to respect your dialectical position in the list of best places to be from and say cheers:

1. Newcastle
2. Glasgow
3. Hull
4. Oxford
5. Sheffield
6. Bristol
7. North-East Wales
8. Cornwall
9. Belfast
10. Liverpool

You can say 'cheers' if you're not on the list, but you have to respect the list. Americans simply do not respect the list (neither do Swanseans, which is why no-one likes them either).

ar you kidding Glice?

every single american says "cheers" when toasting a beverage at a bar or any occassion!

And they sound like pricks doing so. I don't make the rules - as much as anyone else I'd like to know what Nascar is, or carry off a baseball hat, but it is simply not possible.

Cheers.

what else are you supposed to say when toasting? I thought it was a standard thang!

Yammas? Slainté?

Ok, I'll allow you to say cheers in toasts. In fairness, I was thinking about the phenomenon of 'cheers drive', which Londoners and non-Brits alike probably haven't experienced, or the cheers in the sense of someone just having opened a door for you or somesuch.

I say "cheers" some because there does not seem to be a proper American English equivalent word.

I too hate that bullshit


Latinos say "SALUD!"

which means HEALTH!
