[LY_Scott]

People who bring completely random unecessary words into conversations and are shocked when no-one is as interested as they are in using or knowing what it means I particularly like the last meaning rote The state of being impared by marijuana. If someone is "rote", he or she is high, baked, blitzed, ect. "Let's go get rote." "I'm so rote." baked high blitzed weed marijuana 2. rote drunk my god i have such a hangover , i was soo rote im never drinkin again drunk pissed steaming smashed plastered 3. Rote 1)Memory by repitation 2)Sounds of surf breaking on the shore

Wow, I'm surprised anyone had noticed I hadn't been on here much lately I've been extremely busy at work, so not really had any chance to post.

Ok, i'll add one myself. People who eat onion sandwiches in the office a bit at a time from 8:30 in the morning and stinking the office out

I heard from numerous sources that you're a knob...

The fourth thing on the Internet to actually make me laugh out loud.

Anyways here is my entry;

Over/misuse of the word 'physically'

"I just physically dont understand why people do this"

(on the phone)
"I'm physically trying to help you, Mr/MrsBlob"

I'll physically throw my telepone off the next person I hear physically say this.

'Literally' has to be worse. 'My jaw literally hit the floor'. It did? The phrase 'turned round' eg 'I turned round and said to him...' - a Jeremy Kyle favourite, along with 'at the end of the day'

I physically read what "rote" means but I still don't understand it. Maybe somebody needs to tell me a few times then I be able to pretend I understand it. Literally physically. At the end of the day, I don't think I care enough really.

At the end of the day is not as bad as


'Back in the day' used at the beginning and the end of generic chav speak just says "Hi, I'm a lazy mouth breather please sign me up for sterilisation so my spawn will not clutter up the earth like me."

[ChrisO]

I mentioned the 'physically' thing to my mate and he said the same... 'literally is literally worse' I actually quite like "Back in the Day" because its quite tongue in cheek. "Back in the day I had conflakes, then got in the car, then arrived here to talk to you. Zing! Lololololol" Ah yes. "Lol" "Lol" has no place in my life.

You forgot to mention the liberal spreading of "Innit!", "Laaaake" and "Wotevaaaaaaaaaaaar!"

Personally, I reckon a programme called "The Jeremy Kyle Sterilisation Show" might get impressive viewing figures - especially now we have ITVPlayer.

I have never heard it used in that context

"Lol" has no place in my life.

Ohhhh Cannot stand it - it makes the user sound like a complete imbecile

I have only ever heard of them referred to on here as 'lined' or 'unlined'. In my ignorance, I assumed that 'unlined' meant that the underside was simply the bare fibreglass. You carry on - it was just me learning somefink noo

PS Thanks for the explanations, and sorry for sullying your thread!

People who bang on about spelling, grammar, text speak etc. etc. then post somefink noo .....

sorry YOB couldn't resist

[LY_Scott]

I'm still lost as to the use of the word 'rote'

Is it just me or does this smiley look like one with a red thong on it's face?
