you know how it goes when you and your friends are sitting around speaking in some weird esoteric lingo that is only known amongst you? well, list a handful of the weird in-joke phrases you use with a select group of friends that no one else understands? here are a few used among a select crew of my friends:
#5. don't let your william turn into a cannon
#4. get off my rainbow you creepy clown
#3. s.o.a always brings master
#2. dropping trou and blasting trumpet
#1. sar, gar, and mar

Re: top 5 in-joke phrases no one else would understand
Mon, January 9, 2006 - 1:59 PMhmmmmmmmmmm not sure if we have 5 or not... but here are a couple I'll even give definitions
way to go, ace!
we were sitting around talking about what a tool this particular guy was, and someone said he wasn't a tool, but a whole toolbox, then someone said he was a whole hardware store, and I said "ACE hardware! Way to go, Ace!!!" so it's either, "hey there ace!" as a greeting or "way to go ace!" as a commentary... you can call a guy a tool right to his face and he'll never know, in fact, "Ace!" is an old-timey way to say "cool guy" so it's extra fun to say-- they think you are complimenting them! this one gets used a lot
what a fucking plushy!
came up with this one after a converstations about the "plushy-furry" stuffed animal/animal costume sex fetish thing all involved in the conversation agreed that this was about the stupidest, lamest, most pathetic, and most ridiculous thing you could do... hence it became a word of general derision... instead of saying "god he is so lame!" or "man is she pathetic!" we say "what a fucking plushy!" this one gets used a lot too....

Mon, January 9, 2006 - 6:10 PMLet's see 5...
o.k. in my part of the wood Humor is the currency or rate of exchange...since we're all po' out here (well not too po'!) so-o humor is greatly Vaued, and somtimes warped!
1. "Check out his/her footwear!"...or "Nice footwear!"
origins:Our dear Matthew had related "famous pick-up lines" one night...A favorie being the simple and elegant "Nice shoes, wanna fuck?!"
And, for an injoke that's been getting out there..
2.. "Minimum!".. (short for "Minimum respect!)".a "spinoff" from the over-used and 'sometimes insincere "maximum Respect!"...this leauge of Respect has now branched out to include such worthy salutations as "paramecium respect!"...and "sub-atomic-respest!", And has made its way from NY to the San Fran, LA and Las Vegas...oh and for high praises (if you Really like someone) there's "Medium Respect!"
if I think of 3 more I'll list them!
btw...hey Theo, what's a Wiiliam and a Canon? -

Tue, January 10, 2006 - 2:28 PMindeed...
here's another one...
miles standishing refers to being a go-between for someone who is interested in someone romantically but is too chicken to go for it, so they want you to suss the other person out for them, or let them know that they like them...
sort of like in high school
for the derivation of this, refer to your grade school education long about Thanksgiving time...the story of Miles Standish, John Alden and Priscilla
Miles dug Priscilla and had John Alden ask her for him if she would sit with him at the big feast
yes, yes, John Alden was the go-between, so it should be "John Aldening" but Miles Standishing sounds way cooler and falls much more trippingly off the tongue... while John Aldening is very hard to say, a real tongue twister
try it and see
and since 98% of the people I say this to don't even know the story, it really doesn't matter anyway
in fact, people are so uneducated about this apocrophyl (sp?)story of the Pilgrim days that I have to explain the saying, as I did here, for people to get it, so it loses its cachet really... it's like explaining a joke
nonetheless, it's a kick-ass made up word... -

Re: top 5 in-joke phrases no one else would understand
Wed, January 11, 2006 - 5:07 PMwell, i would say that if you are "miles standishing" then you are asking someone to be the go-between. if you are being the go-between, then you are "john aldening."
"god, i wish that guy would grow a couple and stop miles standishing me. i hate john aldening for him every time he sees a gal that he takes a fancy to."

Re: top 5 in-joke phrases no one else would understand
Wed, January 11, 2006 - 5:14 PManother thing some friends and i like to do is to abbreviate EVERYTHING. so we would say "ATM" for "at the monitor" and at one point my friend made some comment about not leaving the house, so he was "browning the underwear at the monitor all day long" and that became shortened to "BTU ATM ADL" which is a much more socially acceptable way to say that you are being a total mouse potato. very beevis and butthead of us, i know, but that's the fun of it all...
what others? oh, i don't know. a friend and i have gotten into the habit of wasting waaaay too much time playing low stakes texas hold 'em and so we've created a mythical beast called the Shuffalope... essentially "shuffalope and deal" has now become "do you see a shuffalope in the distance?"

Re: top 5 in-joke phrases no one else would understand
Thu, January 12, 2006 - 2:21 PMthat's "shuffle UP" and deal, not "shufflope and deal", said the semi pro poker player... LOL
and i like your idea on my miles and john creation... but did you try saying "John Aldening" out loud (as opposed to just writing it here?) it's not easy to say and doesn't feel or sound graceful...
and since noone knows the story or what either of those two names represent.... -

Re: top 5 in-joke phrases no one else would understand
Sun, January 22, 2006 - 2:14 PMone winter, back in '94, my friend and i decided we would be beach bums down in south padre texas. so first we took off in his navy blue VW bus (which he named Stella Blue) with his cocker spaniel (named Cassady) and went on Dead Tour. the VW bus was only running on three cylinders and was sucking gas like nobody's business. plus we weren't making much money vending. so i joked that we could put the dog out front (really cute sweet goofy dog) with a dog bowl and a sign that says "who's got my 4:20 bowl?" or we could just cook up the dog and sell "Cass-a-deas."
my friend scowled at me for the second one but in spite of his general lack of amusement, the term stuck and whenever we were scraping for food some mention of the Cass-a-dea would come up and we'd at least have a laugh over it.
sadly he passed away in august of 2001 but just after his death his girlfriend contacted me with a package of things she thought he'd want me to have.
it's funny how those little jokes and quirky moments can have so much power to 'em sometimes... -

Mon, January 23, 2006 - 2:04 PMSLEEP!
back when I was a teen..my best freind and I enjoyed smoking pot together...ah yes...some familiar "side-effects "of the plant so many of us have loved or love...munchies...lil' bit o x-tra sexiness...and gettin' a wee bit tired sometimes...
Well. I'll call her Val (since that was her name! : ) ! ) and I were 16 and had known eachother since Kindergatren...we could make lots o 'jokes w/ eachother...and one was "SLEEP"...we would be really stoned...and having already munched....and if there were no boys around (we were "straight" lil' teeny-boppers!)...we were ready for SLEEP...we woud even say..."on your mark, get set...SLEEP!" We thought it was SO funny (ganja can do that to ya!)...we'would walk around goin' (in Brooklynese,,,"Going" means "saying") SLEEP or "on you mark...get set..."
We even had T-shirts made...black w/ SLEEP printed in silver sparkling letters!...Ah the Folly of a misspent youth!
(so that's 3 for me...2 more to come!) -
