    Default Weird things other people (in other countries) say

    "and Bob's your uncle"

    I just figured out basically what that means, it still strikes me as kind of a bizarre phrase. Strange people, the English.

    fwiw I don't really know if English people still say that but I was just watching a movie about 1930's England.

    and, go.

    In Korea they always say "piting" which is apparently the English word for fighting. They will say it before a football game or an interview. It's an extremely strange word to use and I don't know why they have adopted an English word for it. "Korea piting" makes no real sense to me, but I will let them say it. It's part of their culture and as long as I never say it I don't really care.

    Until a few years back, I didn't know the word fag means cigarette for the English.

    Fagot is a bunch of sticks like kindling.

    You guys call an ass a fanny ! Fanny has always been the vagina out here.

    We were like WTF when it was first being said on screen.


    "Fetch to me a few fagots my good man, my fanny is freezing."

    To be honest not a lot, you dont hear it a great deal.

    Im not sure we even have an accent I think its how people sound when they are so slack they just blurt shit out with no accent at all just straight talking.

    We dont say chuck another shrimp on the barbie either

    Dont even call em shrimps out here they are prawns.

    the movies and adverts portray us doing and saying stuff we just couldnt be fuked doing or saying I think our laziness is reflected in our approach to the English language.

    Ah Fa fuks sake!

    aww fair go.

    whos this Cock head think he is?

    < You all hear them a fair bit.

    Are you saying you'd never heard this before living in Korea?

    All you Yeehaws say "could care less," which makes absolutely no sense whatsoever, instead of "could NOT care less."

    CFH constantly complains about this which proves Canadians are clearly not as thick as Americans. Go Canada. Fact.

    I dated a colombian for a while. Early on she used "Mi Vida" (My Life) as a term of endearment. Apparently it is common in South America but after dating for just a couple weeks it freaked me out at first.
