Words Grown Men Should Never Use

[mynameisbob84]

"Poopy" is one of my favourite words and I use it all the time :?

You don't say "I just went poopy", right?

You use it in place of shit, except I haven't seen you refer to actual shit yet, so I don't know if you use "poopy" in that sense.

On Topic:

"I miss (insert boy-band from the 90's here)"

I've not uttered the sentence "I just went poopy" in about 20 years (though that could easily be changed :?).

I find "poopy" (and its derivatives) to be such a versatile linguistic device!
"That guy's a poopy-head"
"What the poop is all this poopery?"
"Alright, mate... don't poop yourself"
"That's just poopy"
"You're poop and you know it"
"I feel so poopy right now"
"It's shitting up a poop-storm out there right now"
"Poop just got real"
"I was figuratively pooping myself"

Ah, poop :-D

christ on a cracker... english or swede doesn't matter. Seems someones a bit full of themselves and being very poopyheaded when its not necessary. Or maybe you're sad you have no way to use 'booboo' at home.... relax... this isn't a gathering of Mensa here, its supposed to be fun and at least this thread, lighthearted.

I do get offended what someone assumes my native language can't handle a simple TV-show. I'm sorry if my intellect offends you, but honestly that's your problem.

Oh my....
I'm thinking the correct term you be searching for is "intellectually superior".... :handgestures-thumbup: :laughing-rofl:

Again, WHY the hell WOULDN'T I watch it in English??

Edit: Also, are you bilingual? I am, and I know that anything (except some cases of word-play) can be translated if the translator is good enough.

Gee, maybe "some cases of word play" might be the reason I'm suggesting that it would not translate well.

No, I think you brought up the translating because I'm from Sweden and you have a completely twisted idea about my country. There was no reason what so ever to even bring up how it would translate. Obviously I know English, I just discussed parenting and the physics of the infant brain IN ENGLISH!

Well, I didn't have a twisted idea your country prior to speaking to you. Clearly you are greatly impressed by your own ability to speak 2 languages and converse about baby talk on a porn site. I shall leave you to your own devices then darlin'

On the language debate...

Sometimes, no matter how well you understand a different language, you might still want to see the show in your native language. So, if something doesn't seem like it would translate well to me, I would say "you might want to watch it in English" to someone who I know speaks a different language as their primary communication, but can watch it in English as well. However, I'd only really say that about a comedy that really relies on the wordplay jokes to even be worth watching.

I've never seen Bones. But last time I checked, it's mystery and/or crime, not comedy. So while the occasional joke might not translate properly, I don't see how that would detract from the show. In fact, I kinda feel like many American shows and movies try really hard to get a joke in somewhere, and would be better off if they'd just skip the lame attempts at humor and focus on the plot. Especially something that's supposed to be mystery, crime, or drama.

I tried to watch Bones once and I think it was some confusing episode about a ghost pirate or something. I guess that would translate fine. The only part of foreign imports I ever have trouble understanding are the translated puns, because you lose the play on words after you change the language something a pun is in.

 

[Nordling]

My interest in Bones was the very stylish way it was presented, oh, and that Emily Deschanel has the most incredible eyes I've ever seen.

The only difficulty in translating from one language from another are instances where idioms are used as part of a greater meaning, like a double entendre. But since Bones wasn't a comedy, I think that could be worked around.

Oh, and "Jag har ont själv" is pretty hot.

 

[camstory]

Aw, fiddle sticks, this talking about Bones is just grand, but oh my golly this thread was suppose to be about Words Grown Men Should Never Use, and heck, i mean gee, i mean shucks, lumpy and I would like to get back to that, darn.

 

[Nordling]

:lol: Cam. Grown men are more interested in . . .

I tend to think using kiddy words isn't shielding kids, it's age appropriate. If a 3 year old child comes in from playing with a fresh cut on their knee crying their eyes out, believing they're going to die because they've never felt that kind of pain or saw blood coming out of their body before... the term boo-boo along with a soothing tone seems way more comforting than saying "Ah crap, that laceration might need stitches."

Edited to add, lying to kids to freak them out like the baptism thing isn't cool, but I still think kids should have a chance to believe in things like the Tooth Fairy, Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny. Imaginations sometimes need to be cultured.

^THIS.^ Let them be kids while they're still so little.

It's not gonna do a child any psychological damage if you say "poopy/potty/booboo" when they're tiny tots. I have a lot of respect for a man who's not afraid to be affectionate and 'be a kid again' for their child's sake.

Just don't be logged into an MFC chat room saying "I'll be right back, bb. I gotta tell Mommy I went poopy." :lol:

It's a bit creepy that 65 year old Prince Charles still calls the Queen of England "Mummy."

 

[LailaBaise]

It's a bit creepy that 65 year old Prince Charles still calls the Queen of England "Mummy."

I think he said it in a very jokey way, but yeah, it's not uncommon at all to use Mummy or Daddy in well bred English folks. It's just what they say, it's not creepy in the least.

 

[Chamaeleon]

"Want to share a hotdog?"

Here in the states, the y usually disappears when the child hits puberty. If an adult says mommy, it usually conjures up some sort of creepy 'Psycho' movie connotation for many of us. Just seemed a bit weird to hear a 65 year old saying that but I can totally understand it. Along those lines... just saw a woman described as a yummy mummy, lol I guess that's the UK version of MILF.

"Want to share a hotdog?"

Also, words no straight man should say.

Along with, "Sir may I push your stool in for you?"

I don't think I saw this yet-

Yummy. A dude ever uses the word yummy in serious fashion to describe how something looks or tastes is getting bashed in the head with a brick.

The entree was a delight but dessert was YUMMY!

:lol:

Now, I would NOT say food was "num-num."

I use words like yummy and tummy all the time. You should not take life too seriously, it makes you grow old.

 

[SweepTheLeg]

I didn't like the word yummy being used by any one of the male gender no matter how old they were. But if there was one thing people would say about me, it's that I take life way too seriously.

Except if a cam girl has 'yummy' in her screen name. Then a guy can get away with comments like "Wow, you ARE yummy!"

Definitely! But using "yummy" to describe anything delicious is okay in my book. Bash in the head? wtf? I hope Sweep was using hyperbole.

I think Sweep was using it as a figure of speech, as in, "bashed in the head with a brick" to mean, "Hit about the skull with a hard heavy object." :laughing-rolling: :laughing-rolling: :laughing-rolling:

Well, a brick is definitely a hard, heavy object. lol But even as metaphor, I can't see getting that angry over word usage. lol

 

[SweepTheLeg]

It was the opposite of a hyperbole. A brick to the head isn't severe enough. I kid. Fear not men who like to rub their bellys and moan "yummy in the tummy" I will not grab a blunt object to bash you in the head repeatedly If I were to hear you say it as such.
