Canadian Paul 97 Posted September 26, 2007 PS. I wonder if I can claim the first "gosh" on deathlist. Doubt it somehow. If it were so, all I could say would be: golly! Beaten almost 2.5 years ago. By Bruno Brimley no less. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ok so I'll give him 30 days to come back here and prove it, and after that, it's mine. Congratulations, Godot! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Brimley appears to be responsible for the origination of many words on this forum, some of which are even in English. Here's hoping he returns soon.

Godot 149 Posted September 27, 2007 These last few exchanges have set me to thinking about retro slang and slang revivals. I can recall when "beans" was very popular in school as a protest word. So you might say "beans man" in response to a shove in the back. I recall also someone being told that he had a face "like a bag o'mallets." That was nice. "Oya" was very popular as the pained reaction from being punched. Recalling old spoken slang is not easy because it's not part of the written record. I'm noticing already that "whatever" is disappearing as a classic teenage response to anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,639 Posted September 27, 2007 This thread bouncing back has got me thinking about the fact Windsor is 7 short of Tempus' total. A reclaimed podium place beckons, methinks, or summat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,639 Posted April 16, 2008 Aye, sad wankerdom did strike me as a poor return for my dedication. Even sent a message to ATJ of the moderators. I mean, as a rule they manage an epithet combining an implied insult with some irony or wit. It's hardly an incentive to see sad wankerdom looming before the rest of you, is it? I thought maybe: 'Is it raining out?' or 'Agrophobic, opinionated & in your face' would be an improvement. Either way, I celebrated 6000 posts in my customary fashion, with post 6001.

Anubis the Jackal 77 Posted April 16, 2008 Sorry I didn't answer, but I thought it was sent to all the mods. I don't have the appropriate level of brotherhood to be able to fiddle with the mechanics of the universe like that. You'd have to speak to The Great Architects about that.
