I've just noticed that the word f4gs in my last post got beeped! May I just point out that my f4gs were British English f4gs, i.e. cigarettes, not American English f4gs.
Sorry for any confusion caused.
Of course, it gives a whole new perspective to the phrase 'do you know where I can find some f4gs?' when a Brit is asking a Yank.
No wonder you guys have some strange ideas about us Brit blokes...


that is true, Golightly. i could hardly understand my Liverpudlean (sp?)
flatmate for the first week or so - not because of word choice as much
as accent though. the one Britword that always gets me is "snog" to
mean "making out" or kissing. that word just sounds gross, not like
something you'd want to do to someone's face.
