Folks Of Interest Catch words, phrases coined

"automotive masturbation"... the act of stroking ones ego into believing they'll really get their inflated asking price for their piece of shit.

Can be made to run again.
The other one is “epic”. Everything to the kids today is epic. No, I’m sorry, but World War Two was epic.

Anyone ever see a raped Ape run.and who ever had the balls to rape an Ape.

 

And everything like that. I have a friend that says it a lot but not as bad as this guy!

 

h-hee.... Or late for dinner

 

When what ever vehicle was that way I'd get "wanna sell it?".

 

How about “sweet” and “Bad Ass” I can understand sweet, but never licked a car to find out. I have no idea what bad ass is. All the ass I ever had was good.... just some a little better.

 

Smokes a little.

 

Just run thicker oil in it.

 

I always answer, "NO" and make them explain what they mean to me.

Synonyms

 

Interesting both breckie and breakfast have only 2 syllables. ..just sayin (oops)

 

That's true, and they quite often refered to them as "big mercs ".

 

My wife keeps on me for that one. ..she says there is no such word. .it's "regardless "...no " ir".

 

“Grumpy old men” comes to mind.

 

A couple here.
One that amuses me is, "we went to the swap meet yesterday" or suchlike. The response, oh did you? Well yes, I just told you we did!
The other is all the abbreviations these days. We no longer have terms and conditions, it's t's and c's. Are we so time poor that we can't even speak full words anymore? Heard an advertisement on the radio the other day (oops, nearly wrote ad there!) for a telephone plan which finished with the 'min cost' for 24 months.
OK, rant over.

 

Yeah no.
Example:

Person A: I think black is the best color on a hot rod.
Person B: I think hot rods look great with just about any color.
Person A: yeah no, I just mean I like black the best.

 

The wifes favorite "Get your hands off me"

 

I believe that only refers to 327s. Every 327 being sold or in a car being sold came out of a Corvette.

"You ain't shittn"....Then you'd better see a Doctor!

 

George Carlin commented on the response ''I heard that''.
Example:
Dude - ''These new headers fit like a dream.''
Goob - "I heard that!"
Well , of course you heard it!
I said it!
What, is this a fuckin' hearing test?
George was funny.

 

Annoying car ads using the adjectives,"stunning, lazer straight, gorgeous , frame off, professionally restored, impeccable". Here is a Hamb friendly term "Barrett Jackson"...? Speaking of which , "provenance", "purpose built".

Street talk ....."yeah dats rite"....."can ya see what I'm sayin?", "feel me" , "hitcha up later", "makes no sense ta me", "hole up", " ja know what eyem sayin?" and there are plenty more , just listen to the news. The mouth opens before the brain thinks and hence out comes the crap.

Malaproprisms ...defined is a blunder in speech , through ignorance of a word or meaning...these can be humorous . A co-worker was a master at these as well as Slip Mahoney from "The Bowery Boys tv show . Examples: My coworker once said he played a "concussion" instrument in high school,(percussion). He was coughing and had something in his "estopagus ". Once had a blood "clock". He was afraid of "academic needles". I wrote them down and have pages of these ...conversations with him were entertaining. Here are a few more, "police squat team", "medium strip in the road", "sleep acne", "abdominal snowman", "aquapuncture", "Asian orange", He had a colonoscopy done and they found no "pollen", "stencil cell research", "vanilla envelopes", "Sears and Robot", He explained to the union steward that his job was being "demolished". Being retired I'm missing out on any new ones. These were at least entertaining and not annoying , maybe a little off topic but worth mentioning .

 

One that I find amusing while watching court shows on tv is referring to someone as your baby momma or baby daddy. It's makes it sounds like you marked your territory and moved on.

 

You watch court shows on TV?
HAMB people don't do that....
That shit kills brain cells faster than paint fumes.

 

OK. How about 4GEAR, DUMP TUBES, GROUND POUNDERS, STREET LEGAL. The phrase that grinds (sorry) me, "I would kill myself if I had that car". All you are telling me is that you are a bad driver. The one I really dislike " he axe me", instead of "he ask me". Thanks for your time, I'm done.

 

That is what the driver did,Not the car.
