hahaa I remember old days on IRC when someone was like "time for a fag" and everyone piled on him for not being nice and he was like "uhh, I'm going for a smoke?" cause fag is slang for cigarette in the UK

I actually like that retarded cartoon. Shame it got cancelled after a month and there were only 6 episodes.

If you really want an inappropriate cartoon, watch "drawn together" it boggles my mind how its not more referenced by lefties when it made fun of Trump. Maybe because everything else was so offensive. But even then, it just made him seem goofy, not malicious.

Oh it's great. Have it up on my shelf for random laughs. But it's still retarded.... and queer.

The british have tons of fun slang though, most of which I hope enters other "western" culture. Poof being a gay man, dogging being public indecency, hell they even have their own term for nancy pelosi in "minger".

Oh totally, I love the British slang. But don't get me started on chocolate biscuits. Which turns out to be a cookie. Cause I was picturing a Pillsbury Grand Biscuit but in chocolate. Yuck. ;>

You have to think if they ever wanted to sell that stuff to black people it'd be the perfect thing, just have the dough boy cover himself in chocolate then immediately loot a liquor store.

Poof is not just a gay man, it's a soft man.

I'm getting nostalgia flashbacks lately, lots of IRC and ICQ mentions, love it.

I almost want to go see if usenet still exists.

rite? usenet, dalnet... sometimes if we had a severe server split, we would go and try another smaller one like starnet or something. It was like being on another planet hahaa

I just realized... they call cigs fags because cigs are a bundle of sticks that you burn. As are faggots, when the term is used in the original sense.
