Where the F*** did “cum” come from?

@lieu

“You cum tons.”

I’m laughing so hard I’m crying!

@jebert

So, Dopers, let’s not perpetuate this bastardization; discontinue the use of “cum” and replace it with “come”. We can do this!!

Fah. I’m homophonic. Let every word have its own spelling! Emancipate terms! Support semantics! End misunderstanding!

Seriously. Drives me nuts when we have letters aplenty that we use just a few of them to create a word that has umpty-seven meanings. The very word ‘word’ has at least ten definitions. That’s craziness.

Don’t know if it’s laziness or what but really what is up with not creating nice new shiny words rather than reusing the same old ones? So I’m sorry but I’m not hopping on this particular bandwagon.

Besides, it’s all just a cut & paste rant from other places.

Sounds like HE was trying to be funny, but was really just insulting, unoriginal, unfunny, and puzzling simultaneously.

Congratulations! You have just proved the theory that there is no limit to human stupidity.

Congratulations! You have now received a warning from me to not alter quotes and to not steal material. Well, I guess, technically that’s two warnings.

Please refer to our forum guidelines which state

I can’t believe I wasted the big 2k on a warning…

Ahhhhh I missed it.

I’d never heard of this song until it was on How Music Works a couple of weeks back, now it’s everywhere.

How did you envision your 2k post? A post about fireworks?
If I ever get to 2000 I will commemorate it with a post about you, if that will make you feel better.

Which has got to be a record for longest time between original release and later artists covering it, ever!

Back in high school, some of my friends called the noun version “cumpah”. Go figure.

[ignoramus]

@jebert

Who is the ignoramus who decided to spell “come” as “cum” when referring to semen.

Please don’t try to blame all this on me, I’m a jism man like my father before me…
