Fat Yanks, tell me why Fat Yanks say "I could care less"?

[BattlingNelson]

Whoa... this is a cool thread. Nice work anorak!

[Devereux2001]

It's a play on words.

A slang, which upon being uttered, has the amazing ability to make nerds from other countries stop WHATEVER else they are doing and take a few minutes out of their own lives to dissect and ponder.

And since you seem sadly pre-occupied with the process of overanalyzing yank slang, let me throw a few others your way in the spirit of education and "reaching across the pond" if you will.

1. Betcha: A combination "I'll Bet" and "You"

As in: Betcha say something else oddly ****sexual when responding to this comment.

2. Fruitboy: Unlike the first one, this one just means someone acting just a little gay.

As in: Wow, the english dude is acting like a real fruitboy by starting a thread like this.

3. asshat: again, not to confuse you, this is NOT a hat for your posterior. This merely an attempt to call a person a ******. A way of describing when one's head is so far up one's ass that one is wearing the ass as a hat. in other words, extreme ******ity. It also has a slightly obnoxious/annoying quality that I find quite usefull.

As in: This asshat REALLY thinks Americans dont notice that the saying they are using, IS IN FACT, really the opposite of what the meaning they are trying to imply.


There ya go english bob. Have fun playin soccer and eating horrible food in worse weather. Come back to the states anytime. Specially if you need bailed out of any huge world altering conflicts that you are getting pwned in.
(pwned means dominated on a HUGE scale by the way)

-Cheers!

Check list for a nerd;

1. Facination with comic books?
2. The use of internet buzz words such as 'pwned'?

Congratulations, you're a nerd.

Gatti fan, the first two were amusing... the second two were obnoxious and needlessly hostile.

Oh, and it's NOT a play on words.

[GattiFan]

Yea. I am.

You also failed to point out that I took the time to respond to his thread, so you could have had that one on me too.

Still. Gotta love robust discussion on the really important issues. =)

Wait...pwned started on the internet?

How do you know the freaking origin of the words nerds use?

Yea...welcome to club pal.

[GattiFan]

I wasnt trying to be hostile!

I love this sensless b.s.

And....last time I checked...you werent the "Guy in charge of deciding what Americans use as plays on words"

And since I use that saying ALL THE TIME and am fully aware of its meaning AND the irony....guess that means you can stfu with the "I am the end all of the argument stuff" huh?

=)

Just givin you a hard time Anoraxic. Keep Postin!

[Devereux2001]

I know what the 'freaking origin' of the word is because the only time i have ever seen it is on the internet, using my sherlock holmes level of deduction i made a simple equation;

A ****** word + The internet x A Nerd = Internet buzz word

[GattiFan]

Nice usage of EQUATIONS.

Nerd.

lol

Relax man...just messin with you.

Tell your mom I said Hi.

Annie has nothing better to do then to sit around his mothers basement with his thining hair and complain about people's grammar.. Get a job you hippie!

He's just upset...the local wino didn't want his salad tossed.

I've noticed an inordinate amount of you doing it, and I can't understand why.

The correct expression is "I COULDN'T care less". If you COULD care less, then that means you must CARE, dig? I mean, it's just basic ENGLISH.


Is it one of the following?:


1. All Fat Yanks are illiterate, have no comprehension of the English language, and are borderline ******ed?

2. They're too busy eating burgers to notice?

3. They're laughing at "one less Russkie" in the heavyweight title picture... conveniently forgetting that Sam Peter isn't a Fat Yank either.

4. They could care less?

Keep smiling and hiding behind your lame little posts but after Hopkins punks your girlfriend these will be the only kind of posts you will be able to make.
Im sure most of the other british community on here wishes you would stop making them look bad and post something with substance. ******!

I've seen this same ****ing post on the non boxing forum, where it should stay. It must really bother you. I blew my ***** out last night aka I ****ed her. Not everything is literal and this includes language. You english need to get the **** over yourselves with your 'proper' language.
