ok… I have developed a bad habit… Everytime I have to thank someone… anywhere… instead of saying thanks alot… I combine the words and I say thanks slut… I used to do it to see if anyone would catch on… only 1 person has looked at me funny… I said it kinda slow that time… now I can’t stop… even at work… It is not like I am even saying it and I say it… are there any other phrases I could do that sort of thing with? It helps pass by a normally dull… mundane sort of day… ---

When I worked as a door-to-door canvasser during the summer when I was a student, we used to try to get away with slurring “Thank you very much” into “Wanker hairy crotch”. So, so mature. ---

When I home I answer the phone with: “Satan’s house of Pudding. Now with 2 and a half flavors!” Or “Welcome to Wanda’s Whip Emporium, your one stop shop for all your bondage and punishment needs. This is Wanda how may I punish you?” BTW I’m a guy ---

When I say _“Ain’t this particularly nice weather?”_ it often comes out sounding like _“Can’t I tickle your ass with a feather?”_ ---

Sometimes when I mean to say “Good Morning.” I end up slurring “Listen you mindless piece of fecundity. May you wallow in your own filth for 30 times 30 years.” ---

“Fuck you very much” slurred just right can pass for “thank you very much”. Just don’t use it at the in-laws during Thanksgiving dinner. :eek: ---

When I was younger and angrier, rather than say bye or good-bye, I’d substitute in die. It especially amused me if I got to smile and wave while I said it and have the recipient unwittingly do the same. ---

Every time I sneeze instead of saying “Ah-choo” I say “Horse-Shit”. It started out as a joke years ago but has turned into a habit. Peace LIONsob ---

You have blown your anonymity! You’re really Darcy Rota (or should I say Darsrota), aren’t you? Aren’t you? Admit it! 😛 I guess there might be five people who know who I’m talking about. Darcy Rota, who used to play for the Vancouver Canucks (Darsrota: Vancnucks), and is now a local broadcaster who is allergic to syllables. ---

You are not alone (as far as I know). I tend to say “Shoot Yourself” for “suit yourself”. I also learned these in the Navy; “A Ten Inch Dick!” = “Attention on Deck!” “That’s a firm titty” = “That’s affirmative.” - of course, these might be tough to fit into normal civilian conversations … ---

When I say this to people, it always come across as “I’ll be your server tonight – my name’s Heather.” I’ve pretty much stopped making small talk. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by lieu \* > \*\*When I say _“Ain’t this particularly nice weather?”_ it often comes out sounding like _“Can’t I tickle your ass with a feather?”_ \*\* That’s funny. When I say it, it tends to come out a bit like _“Hey baby! Can I stick a feather up your ass?!”_. Then again, my voice _is_ pretty nasal. ---

We have a chain of cafés in Canada called the Second Cup. Needless to say, to me they will always be the Sucking Cock. If I say it fast, sometimes people don’t even notice. ---

And then we have Speck-ta-clees (spectacles), the Greek god of seeing. Thanks, Jim, I’ll never be able to pronounce that right again.
