fo'shizzle, dizzle, fizzle, yo?

Maybe I’m just ignorant, but WTF is up with this shizzle, dizzle, stuff? Is it slang that lets you curse in code? Or some gangsta wannabe stuff? What?? Translation, please?!?

It can be slang, or just any sort of replacement word… The rapper Snoop Dogg started the phenomena- at least began the popularity. The first real big outburst was on the MTV music or movie awards, about two years ago, where Snoop did a skit with some other actors (Ben Stiller??? I dont remember who…) and thats really all his dialogue consisted of (fo’shizzle my bizzle…). I like many others was consumed in the hilarity and immediatly started talking like that… but, i will tell you what: I am OVER IT!! It is SO old!

Now see, that’s what I get for not watching TV! Two years behind, whoa!!

Maybe I should just stick to talking about backwards country hick stuff. :slight_smile:

And then came Snoop’s short-lived, but hilarious, MTV series, “Doggie Fizzle Tele-vizzle.”

Now wait just one min-izzle.

Typically you take either the first letter, syllable, or couple of syllables in a word and just add izzle to the end. Obviously it’s much easier to understand if you use more syllables. Televizzle= much easier to understand than fo’ shizzle. Fo’ shizzle means for sure, BTW. Or you can just throw in izz randomly throughout words or phrases…

Thank you VERY much Dante for making Pepsi come out of my nose and making me laugh like a loon at my desk for about 10 minutes. My co-workers now have proof that I am insane. :smiley:

Please don’t forget the shizzolator at www.asksnoop.com. I can play with this thing for hours. Of course it doesn’t take much to amuse me.

Great, it’s a 2000-style death razizzle.

Honor to serve, m’lady. My work here is done.
