we all be bling blingin in the LBC
“Bling bling” makes it in the OED, and it’s news?
What the hell isn’t in the OED?!
As opposed to “belimbing”, which means “starfruit” in Indonesian/Malay.
Yeah yeah, all right MeanOldLady and pulykamell (and others), so it shouldn’t really bug me. For some reason it does, and it’s got nothing to do with rap music. I don’t know, there’s occasionally a word that just makes me shudder to hear, and “bling-bling” is that word right now. Probably because I have several friends who use it, and most often use it improperly.
Anyway, the thread took off in the way I intended, that being more interesting words to put in the dictionary.
So git off my nutzack beatches, afore I bitch slap the shizzle outcha!
Hmmm. I would buy that, welby, except for your comment about gangsta being next.
But as they say in the 'hood, it’s all good, son.
Juanita, no, really. Me hating the word has nothing to do with rap music, which I listen to and enjoy. I picked gangsta simply because it was along the same lines (i.e. rap-associated), and because it’s a word I use daily. Everyone who passes my desk in the morning gets a “What up, Gangsta!” for a “good morning.”
Perhaps I sounded a little too crabby, possibly because I really do hate “bling bling,” but it was morning and I hadn’t been through my coffee yet. Makes no matter I guess, just don’t want people to think I came off as a person who didn’t like the word because of it’s origin.
Welbs, my homeslice, it’s all good. I guess I should have put a smiley at the end of the first statement but I thought the ‘it’s all good’ part would cover it.
No biggie, still on the quitting smoking thing and alternating between punchy with laughter and ready to skin something and eat it raw.
Clang-clang-clang went the trolley!
Ring-ring-ring went the bell!
Bling-bling-bling went my heartstrings!
From the moment I saw him I shizznit!
But what is it? A noun or adjective?
Aiight, yo. Chillax.
I am so out of touch. I thought “Bling-Bling” was one of the Giant Panda cubs born in captivity.
