Words you don't hear any more?

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Anyone else (jocko homos in my case) remember "Shan, Shottie, Eppiy, Claimed, Chorried, Barry?", why do we never hear "Jobby" anymore? :lol:

Think back............what don't you hear these days?

"New Sisters Album" seems stuck somewhere in the nineties, for some odd reason :innocent:

Excellent work Iz, relating a topic in General Chat to The Sisters. :lol: :notworthy:

Dunno about words that haven't stood the test of time, but a wonderful new one was heard recently, by a good mate whose team had just gone a goal down within 2 minutes of kick-off. 'Oh s**t, we're gonna get thrapped!

Awesome, every sentence should have a thrapped in it. :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:

Weird. I'm just back from my work Christmas dinner and the word "jobbie" came up in polite conversation (to hilarious effect).

This was before it turned to discussion of multi-pronged sex toys. (OK, the conversation wasn't that polite).

Words We Miss:
Spanner, spaz, mong, joey, epi, epi fit, itchy (or itchy belm), ace, keen, skill, wally, and brill.

In addition, there are words that have been hijacked by certain groups in society. As The Kids In The Hall put it...

"Cunnilingus"? My grandfather drove one across America. With pride. He bought the first one off the lot in 1923. Oh, but now they're all gone, forgotten - the Cunnilingus, the Rambler. Oh. I suppose "Rambler" means something filthy now too, does it, does it mean something...?
Can't use the word "fisting" anymore either, oh no. No, no. But back in the forties the girls and I used to fist every Sunday afternoon. It was a knitting stitch, and a very difficult one. I made a lovely yellow afghan full of tiny, intricate fistings, that won a, that won a grand prize at a, at a jamboree. Yeah. Gave up knitting altogether, though, in 1979, finally found out what the word meant, oh no. No, no. I took that afghan with all that lovely fisting and put it up the poop-hole. Oh, that's, that's what we used to call attic. Now they're all gone, locked away, like those beautiful words.
Well, I guess I'm just supposed to fade away, in silence...or be modern and accept it. Fine. I guess I'll just have a f**k Off. Oh, that used to be a summer drink, you know."

Something like that - I tried (and failed) to find a phrase that conjured up the idea of bringing back a thread to topic just as it was about to be derailed....

Meaning of Liff anyone :)

Spaz and ace are still going strong Mr B'stard. In my head anyway.

Once the re-railroad, now it's done!

You're showing your age there, Korin... that term was surely not even invented 5 years ago. BLESS! :wink:

You don't hear jobby enough anymore, it's true. Remember playing Jobby, the game... where you had to say it in the classroom louder and louder until someone would scream it out? Ahhh.... happy days!

Keich and toly (tollie?) are another two related ones ;D
