Worked with a guy who sang every song that came on the radio loudly, usually incorrectly. One of his gems:
"We go back to Carolina"...translation: "Big 'ol Jet Airliner" Co-workers sandwich maker once asked him "Why would Elton John write a song about Tony Danza? I know he's gay but still it's odd." Co-worker: "What the fuck are you talking about? his old lady: "You know, "Hold me closer Tony Danza" |

The words are "no", "want" and "right", but in the Redneck kotex, they might appear as something like: "Gnaw, I mean the mousy kind of rat, like 'I won't it rat now!'"

Co-worker got picked up on a DUI charge, and he asked my help in writing a letter to his lawyer. (I have no idea why)
He needed help on how to spell soveriety. I told him I thought it was s-o-b-e-r-i-e-t-y He told me I was wrong because there must be a "V" in there somewhere.... He is the same guy that got mad at people making comments about his personal life, so he put up a sign: If you has opinon keep it to your shelf |

The point is mute. My boss does this. Drives me fucking nuts. I know someone that says,"I'm going to eat him out" instead of "chew". And why do black people say "mine's" all the time, like, "I got mine's XBOX back from Microsoft and it still has a RROD?". |

I could care less about word misuse. For all intensive purposes, it's a mute point.

My cousin is NYPD...many moons ago he was stationed somewhere not pleasant and had many fun and interesting calls.
One of the stories he told me was he and his partner were stuffing a guy with warrants on him (i think, it was something like that) into the back of their cruiser and the guy shouted at them "I been indicated by da Grand Union!" Translation: I was indicted by the grand jury (Grand Union is/was a supermarket chain there) |
