Guest Guest Posted January 22, 2005 Share Posted January 22, 2005 white coco chip 4 me.. u mean the british. and why do they say BLOODY HELL (hope i got the quote right) Why not? its not as rude as some other words that we say! ;) Like with cookies and cakes and bread and all the others, the one that makes me lol is the: US: Rubber UK: condom US: Eraser uK: rubber and this one i never got my head straight uk: Bum bag is fanny pack in the USA..... lol see how close the lang are and how far apart they are.... and the fact that we actually understand each other! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VonHelton Posted January 22, 2005 Share Posted January 22, 2005 uk: Bum bag is fanny pack in the USA..... "Bum" in the UK means posterior, rear end, fanny or bottom. We already use the word "Bum" for so many things, I'm not sure if it could be used for that as well, but you never know. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for "jerries"... It's actually older than that. In the Great War, ('14-'18) these Germans wore helmets that looked quite like chamber pots. Synonyme: "jerry" (from the much older word 'jeroboam', with about the same meaning) Also said is that Jerry comes simply from "German", but that's a bit pathetic to me. I just remember the word being in general use, when I was a kid. So in the Interbellum this word was already in use. Jerry-can refers to the 5-gallon metal container in which Jerries stored gasoline and stuff first... later on the Allies assimilated its' use.. name stayed the same, and hence: Jerry-can. BTW, VH, this bum-talk is not appropriate.. ;) With the greatest respect, Elladan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VonHelton Posted January 22, 2005 Share Posted January 22, 2005 My contributions to humanity thusfar are internet abbreviations & the occasional word added to American English. (If you ever wondered who invented "BRB", "AFK", "IMHO", etc......It was me!) .....That will change if I can get to Mars. ;) Oh, and I'm fond of the peanut butter cookies the Girl Scouts sell......I can eat whole boxes at one sitting. :D EDIT: Typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zgamesforu Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 The girl scouts need to retrofit their recipie, it is seriously flawed. They should get more business like, start mass producing. Price competition with large scale distributors. They have a marketing edge, they're Girl Scouts!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zgamesforu Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 candy bar cookies...whats ur favorite one? Twix? Twix hands down. It is so much crunchier than mars or others, but still retains the flavor. The only other worthy contendor is Nestle Crunch, they're not really bars, but I eat them just like them.

zgamesforu Posted January 23, 2005 Share Posted January 23, 2005 Ohhhh yea!!!! That's perfect. Then all the girl scouts get loaded into giant transport ships and are then flown to houses and deployed using dropships. I can see it now, the whole sky filled with imperial dropships, girl scouts rapelling down onto the roofs and front doors using breaching charges on doors if they can't pick the lock, taking the money and replacing it with cookies. meanwhile longrange turrets concentrate their fire on McVite's giant cookie factory ships that are trying hard to fight off enemy girl scout short range fighters. It's healthy McVite pulsed cookie cannons vs. Girl Scout phase-modulated brownie torpedoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
