Slang, Yo.

Sup, ya'll? I heard this story from my friend yesterday about this huge tool of a "boyfriend" that cheated on his girlfriend with a slut. Grody. What a douche! It makes me really angry to hear about such jacked up relationships. That boy is so donskies.
(Btdubs, this story is supes not real. I totes just made it up, my duis. DUECES.)


Okay, so maybe that's just the way we talk in P-town, but it's slang nonetheless. I can guarantee that any teenager/young adult/maybe adult? has heard at least one of these words.


To be honest, I have no idea where 99% of these words came from. But if I could hypothesize, I would assume from either a) rappers or b) Jersey Shore.


"Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn," spoken by Rhett in Gone With The Wind. I have maybe said this phrase 100 times in the past week with my friend Julia. She actually told me to hurt her if she ever tries to say it again. CONNECTION TO EVERYDAY MEDIA: Plankton says it on Spongebob. "Well, that certainly was an interesting series of words that just tumbled out past your teeth and lips, but frankly, my dear sponge, I don't give a barnacle." (Spongebob's Last Stand, for you uneducated people of Bikini Bottom.) 


My friends and I always talk about what the significance of using swear-words in everyday language (don't be fooled, we swear a TON regardless of meaning.) Does, "you scared the shit out of me" even make sense? Not really. "What the hell/fuck are you doing?" I DON'T GET THE LITERAL MEANING OF THAT SENTENCE. I feel like people just throw in swear-words in their sentences to enhance their emotions. Swearing makes you feel empowered (at least for me). Swearing is awesome. Try it! 


PEACE, LOVE, & HAPPINESS!

* all of the bolded words are slang words that I think we use in our language.
