Does anyone like the word "bush"?

What comes to mind when you hear the word “bush” ?
How many times a day do you hear that word?
When was that an acceptable word to use?
Did senior Bush ruin the word or did the current President ruin it?
Have you recalled using that word recently for a shrub, a body part or just to tell a joke?
Why did the Texians call him DubaU?
Are texains more smart then we give them credit?

What comes to mind when you hear the word “bush” ?
G.W.B.

How many times a day do you hear that word?
Too many.

When was that an acceptable word to use?
Before Jan. 20th, 2001.

Did senior Bush ruin the word or did the current President ruin it?
current.

Have you recalled using that word recently for a shrub, a body part or just to tell a joke?
Frequently. Also using “shrub” as a pejorative for G.W.B.

Why did the Texians call him DubaU?
Beats me. Its Texas. Go figure.

Are texains more smart then we give them credit?
No. And I think you could legally be shot in Texas for not capitalizing the word.

Hope this helps. :slight_smile:

Did anyone else find it greatly amusing when large numbers of women shaved themselves as a protest (Just say no to bush!)

good answers CynicalGabe I have to agree with you, why do we have such a large national dephosate?

Australians tend to use the word *bush * as a synonym for rural and remote areas. So whenever I hear the word, my first thought is of outback NSW.

Thanks, but I am going to have to confess ignorance. What is “dephosate”? :confused:

It’s Dubya, as in “W” with a Texas Drawl.

Bush is OK, sorta. It’ll do, I guess.

All right, I have a confession: I prefer pussy. It’s just so dirty and sweet at the same time. Pussy rocks; but every woman I’ve ever gotten to know has hated both those charming metaphors, with pussy usually ranking about one micron above the “C” word.

So I guess it has to be bush. But “bush” isn’t the pussy! Sure, it’s in the vicinity, but it ain’t the honey pot, you know?

“Hoo-hoo” just doesn’t do it for me. I can’t say that with a straight face. Oh, and “honey-pot”? My wife detests that one.

C’mon, aren’t there any alteratives? Anything behind door #4-or-higher that might be mutually acceptable?

dephosate is the money that Goverment has burrowed we have a dephosate of 7 trillion dollars right now… cause bush is spending more money then U.S makes

It’s Texan when talking about the state, Texican (my preference) when talking about the nation!

DEFICIT

The word is “deficit”.

Ouch. :smiley:

What comes to mind when you hear the word “bush”?

A small shrub with leaves. Followed by a mental image I’m not allowed to describe on a family-friendly message board.

**How many times a day do you hear that word? **

Once or twice. If I’m watching CNN, approximately a billion and five.

When was that an acceptable word to use?

‘Bush’? I hope it was *always * acceptable, otherwise Moses would’ve been in real trouble…

Did senior Bush ruin the word or did the current President ruin it?

Most definitely and certainly Bush the second. (Mostly because I wasn’t around for the first. But this one’s pretty bad.)

**Have you recalled using that word recently for a shrub, a body part or just to tell a joke? **

All three. Possibly together at the same time. :slight_smile:

**Why did the Texians call him DubaU? **

Because the Texians are an evil subaquatic race of half-mermaid jellyfishes bent on destroying the world’s fugu population.

Now if you asked the Texans:smiley:

Are texains more smart then we give them credit?

Texains? Well, seeing as they’re a small, bug-like insect found in reedy marshes, underneath rocks and logs… (Again, Texans. And sure, I s’pose so.)

Well, I for one can’t hear the word “shrubbery” without thinking of Monty Python’s “the knights who say ‘Ni!’” shtick from Holy Grail.

So it’s got to be “bush,” even if it recalls a rather silly POTUS…

I like bush, myself.

So long as it’s not capitalized.

:stuck_out_tongue:

As for the Shrub we call a president…that’s another rant for another time and another place. Let’s just say :mad: and leave it at that.

I’m with Cunctator and think of any country areas in Australia or any wooded area here when I hear the word bush.

  1. Women’s pubic hair, particularly if it’s been styled or moulded in some fashion.
  2. Probably 11 times a week, in all contexts. I see it online more than I hear it in person.
  3. It’s always an acceptable word to use. Unless you’re not talking about something that isn’t our current president’s family/administration, a low-to-the-ground shrub, or women’s pubic hair. Then it doesn’t make any sense.
  4. The word has not been ruined. It’s a perfectly acceptable word for discussing our current president’s family/administration, a low-to-the-ground shrub, or women’s pubic hair.
  5. Yes. Just yesterday I told my friend, in response to him asking where a friend of his was, “I don’t know, uh… oh there she is! She’s over by those bushes over there”.
  6. I don’t know.
  7. Possibly.

ROFLCOPTER!

I think of mighty tasty canned beans. And the talking dog that wants to give away the recipe.

I always think of the plants that grow outside my house. It has always been an acceptable word.

This thread is taking political potshots, no matter how much you try to disguise it as a joke.

Off to The BBQ Pit.
