No, if you find a penis offensive as well you've got some self-loathing issues you need to work out."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

Actually, Minnesota sounds more stereotypically "Canadian" than most Canadians.Originally posted by Geronimo
Doesn't everybody use "eh" in the same manner as "huh"? I thought the Canadian use of eh was distinguished only by using it in other contexts.
My neighbor might say "So your backyard rink is finished eh?" and it doesn't sound Canadian at all to my ears.

We've gotten you to admit it's a penis with a turban Asher, but there are so many more unanswered questions, like what is the windmill doing there and what is it made of? Also is the ground supposed to be pubic hair, because if so you needed to be banned again, I would vomit every time I see one of your posts. And in what bubble exactly is that kind of abstract porn considered cool?
Also "Eh" is an Australian thing.Comment

Yeah, they do. I always thought they said Cheers alot, what does that mean in Brit speak?Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.

What do you think of Skins Asher?Jon Miller: MikeH speaks the truth

All the dialogue on Skins is pretty realistic. One of the co-writers is only 23 or something but even so they employed a bunch of kids to script edit and make sure there was nothing in there that wasn't how kids that age really speak.Jon Miller: MikeH speaks the truth

Re: Do Brits really say "Yeah" all the time?
Not quite like that. Occasionally it's used as a question at the end of a sentance, to check the person's understood, as in your examples. Generally it's used by young people, whether the chavvier end as a random word thrown in or posh girls where it sounds closer to 'yar', as in "You'll be at the party, ya?" (hear Peaches Geldof or the posh girls from the first series of Skins talk and you'll get the idea).Originally posted by Asher
I'm watching Skins.
The guys always say stuff like "Quit ****ing about, yeah?" or "Sorry, yeah?"
Is this how it is? It's bizarre.
More commonly it's just used instead of yes, as it's a shorter sound. However that comes from US TV shows and such, rather than being a brit phenomenon, IIRC. Hell, it's even used in Starcraft when you want to get a seige tank to move ("Yeah, I'm going").Smile
