You only use the lingo with those who understand. And part of the fun is sounding 19, and sounding dumb. Its like a little dipshit secret handshake among screwheads like Coltrane and me. No deep irony, no clever self-congratulatory forced satire/sarcasm, no intllectual pretension... just a dumb little joke between folks with similar mindsets. You either are on the bus or off the bus on this one.

This quoting from another string (uh, I mean thread) sucks.
It reminds me of the Vince Vaughan character in Old School (which, by the way, was one funny flick).

Absolutely. Then again, MMcC can do just about anything and I would still love him. Truly. I understand he's hygienically challenged, but we were meant to be together. This marriage thing I've got going on shouldn't stand in the way, I wouldn't think.

A young stockbroker going up to a group of girls and saying "Helllo, ladies" is lame.

Is it ever. Maybe it's that I'm surrounded by business people who constantly speak in lingo that I'm so attuned to how much I hate it.
