lol do they still say that? I thought that was an old one. Seems nobody is their real name anymore either. No matter how short the name is it seems like it is almost cut down to 2 letters lol when I picked names for my kids I always thought what would they be called for short...... like Jason for instance I thought ok it won't be cut down but all his friends call him........Jas (Jace)
You're right. People in rugby don't stay pretty long. No ears, busted noses, missing teeth. You never see them sponsoring anything except beer.
How do you pronounce the second "o" in "broccoli" without sounding like some pompous jackass? I'm from Ohio, and we'd have a laugh fest if somebody said, "broccOli". I can barely get away with saying "soda" here, in the land where "pop" dominates. ~String
People that can't pronounce it properly (and proply is another example) should not be allowed to buy it, and be given cabbage instead.
Ohhhhh I haven't heard the word soda....its been so long I can't remember. It's always been known as pop here.
coke is coke......pepsi is pepsi.....orange crush is crush..... 7 up is 7up and so on......all POP how can it all be called coke? lol
touche...bro...touche...you totally caught me spelling things in the American way with a "z"...sorry about that....'cause I try to spell things proper...unless I'm trying to over-exaggerate my Texas accent. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
You must be from the South. Everybody down there calls all carbonated beverages "Coke." I'm from Ohio-- but I CHOSE to call carbonated beverages "soda." I just hate the word "pop." ~String
Soft drink and Carbonated Beverage. Both names without a soul at all. I do like the word Soda, it conjures up old fashioned gleaming ice-cream parlours. The Fonz, I'm sure, would ask for a soda. Whereas pop is just pop. The Fonz would not ask for pop.
The Fonz. As soon as you mention the Fonz, everyone thinks they are the Fonz, but most people are more like Richie Cunningham and Potsie.
The Fonz is not some cool whitebread American boy-- he's a kosher Jew from upper Manhattan (not that there's anything wrong with that). But you don't get more "non" All American than that. ~String
