Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

[GwenOnBass]

Natural breathing, as opposed to an iron lung. They still have those things? An iron lung might make for an interesting conversation piece in the sitting room, next to the subway brake, and under the type case.

You could get an iron lung for 5 million Kensitas coupons.....

Everyone knows that word and it's definitely not used in The Colonies.

Early in our marriage my late wife and I got into a disagreement and I used that word. She grabbed a chair (she was 5 feet tall dripping wet) crawled up on it slapped me hard and said "Don't you ever use that in front on me again! Understand?!" All I could say was "But you are from Ireland!" That went over like passing gas in church.

Of all the friends I have from the Emerald Isle you are the only one that even types with a Brogue.
That was a compliment.

I am probably one of the very few Colonists that was called that name in a pub in Cork and walked out without bodily injury. All for winning a darts game. Which is not advisable for a Colonist to do.

Look guys and girls...let's not beat around the bush here....who's pretending to know what this feckin' word is???...
I ask because I've been surrounded by Irish, both friend and foe since my early teens and I haven't got a clue what you're all on about......

Thanks for reminding me @Morrighan

Attention all GOF's! Report in...

Slacker!

Lots of snow and mucho ice around here the past couple of days with a little more on the way. Been out shoveling a lot (excersize!).

 

[GwenOnBass]

The English are fond of that word too!

Always fun to have words that only some people can use, sometimes, depending on time and place. The rules are secret and the penalty for breaking them is harsh bang exclamation point
