Belgium is for sale

it's still the british word for cigarettes. It can be quite disturbing for a foreigner to be asked if they have a spare fag on them

That's true. No reason they should stop using that word the way it was originally intended.

hehe no u didn't. I was just playing along with the stereotypical english dislike for the scots. The c word should be one of beauty. Unfortunately it's taken on a tone of the disgusting. So i refuse to use it at all.

PHEWWF! I totally thought I had offended you. Gosh, my heart is still beating a bit fast.

I've used the c word on people I really dislike. I don't use it often but for me it's almost taken on a different meaning...

 

[hermanntrude]

you'd have trouble offending me, twila.

being female makes it more difficult, i think... call me sexist

Don't even think about an f ing poll! :roll:

Poll for what?:?:

I'm curious too... can't quite seem to see what anyone would be polling on.

 

[DurkaDurka]

Ok, I'll take that as a yes... in this informal poll here

Another yes...

Thanks Shadow for the link.... need a laff

I call people 'berk' often and have no idea if it is bad or good.... like wanker this morning....

Names (like fag) have different meanings for different things. In the U.S. there are so many verbotten expletives now it's like walking on wire maneuvering through hurt feelings....

My mother who was born in France but moved to England when she was little thus grew up with a weird accent. Having many kids she rarely swore but got away with one which killed us... 'fot'.... trans: fart.

We would all scatter knowing one of us was in trouble if we heard it lol...

If this were the "burglar with the weird sex-toy fetish" thread, I would say he was certainly polling on something that he shouldn't have.;-)

No problem. I'm glad you liked it. It is one of my favourite to read. If you enjoy the comics, you could always pick them up in book form.:smile:
