I think a more inefficient word is "like". I hear that word thousands of times in a day teaching freshman. "This is like totally like impossible, Biology is like my least like favorite like subject." Drives me nuts. I find myself counting how many times they say it is a sentence.

Me too... I got 157 in 6 mins from one girl.

you sound like my grandfather, he harrases my sister daily for saying like. i do believe it is overused since half the time you dont really know if people are using it legitimately or using it as slang.

We had a kid fresh outta college hire into the office where I work. His 'thing' was: "you know".
I kinda got tired of hearing it so EVERY TIME he said it, I countered with, "No, I don't know". The first time I did it, he had this quizzical look on his face but kept on with his dialogue. And I continued with my 'not knowing'. It took him a monthor so to get out of that habit. Gotta say, ya know, the kid was kinda bright, ya know. If'n he wasn't, he'da still be saying it, ya know.

One other thing he came out with in his rendition of dialogues was "go'ing". He would say something like, I was talking with him and he goes, John did this.
So I go, How did he do that?
And he goes, with a lever to move it.
And I go,,,,,,,,,

So, every time he 'went' it (past tense of goes, ya know) I'd interject, "where'd he go ?" or "where'd you go ?" You know.

So, lots of "going" and "knowing" simply went away as he matured.

Like whatever. Like who cares, like really. like so '90s. What gets me is news people who should know how to use English well, when they say stuff like "The man was electrocuted to death" Like it drives me mental.

'kaaaay. So experts, please explain the phrase, JUICE! Late last year, a big punkin went across a main road. Locals cut just enough out to squeeeeeze a full size pickup through....just barely. Woodcutters were intimidated by the log size and size of knots in the section on the road. So, I got tired of squeezing the monster truck through the log and talked fire guys into coming out and whittling on it. (I didn't have my "green card" then or a saw.) After one guy and I had been working on it. for an hour..I pounded wedges and yarded the pieces off the road, the "crew" shows up. All they seemed to do was stand around and yell JUICE unless I got cranky and told them exactly what to do. And I found myself thinking of telling them impolite things to do because of having to deal with them. JUICE got yelled whenever a saw was going or while splitting a big chunk so it could be moved. So, dudes, like how common is JUICE.

So, what's wrong with Forest County eh, dude? Seriously, my hunting shack is up there, the worst thing about it is the bingo indians but they aren't up near Armstrong Creek...

I say dude because my kids have to accept it, same as saying cool, hip, tough, boss, heheheheheheeh

Only thing I know about using juice in or as a term is gin n' juice. NOT sure if that's strictly gin and juice or any alcohol though...

My worst use of the F was in the AF. Russian linguist. I had been working over a tape and was stuck on one portion. Over, and over, dig out dictionaries, etc. Then the light bulb hit making it clear, I yanked off my cans (headsets), "you F...er!" bounced them off the door frame just as my new shift commander (a very cute captain) went by it outside. One very confused look on her face. Never a word said.

Nuttin really. Sometimes one of those Rhinelander rejects gives me a hard time because they think Rhinelander is a big cultural center or something.

I worked my way through college at the casino, didn't make much money; but as far as working my schedule around my classes and the way I was treated, probably one of the best employers I've ever had. Health insurance was 100% too.

Now those Polacks up on the Creek, they're a whole different story.........LOL!

If you speak F___ press 2 now.

Most Europeans speak several languages.

Is it to much to ask yourself to speak English and 'Woods' each in their appropriate settings?

Woods is a dialect of English, a creole common around the world, where every other word is F____ (ing) in a form on noun, pronoun, verb, adverb, direct object adjective etc.

The primary reason for use of this creole is to address specific nuances in the base language that cannot be realized by the limited words available.
Fortunately, F_____ has no F_____ing limits, if you know what the I'm saying.

Out F Standing. Jesus H Christ.

Did anyone here ever hear George Carlins analysis of why we say ______ You?

Rhinelander, cultural center? thats 2 days worth of laughing for me, although i shouldnt speak when the next closest town is WI Rapids.

I just expect more originality in the woods but am disappointed. I do like a term, thought up by a hooktender, for those underachievers in world...paste eaters. He came up with it to describe a flagger, who was a very sound sleeper, and wouldn't wake up until I banged on the pickup cab with a stick. Then he barely woke up. They took the pickup away from him to keep him awake. He was the first recipiant, that I know of the name/term paste eater. The useage has expanded since. Like, "You mean that bunch of paste eaters in the office?" Or used jokingly whilst shoveling out flood debris, "Get to work you bunch of paste eaters." That is the most original term I've heard. I guess I could counter with "Clay eater." explanation being that a couple kids ate their modeling clay in first grade and they got bloody noses from it. Paste eater has a nice ring to it. Of course, one could always add Fudging (substituted for the other word) paste eater to make it more authentic. Or "Get to work, you scurvy paste eaters" on Talk Like A Pirate Day.
