'Unders' / 'overs' to describe trades.

Futurist.

HTF does one become a genuine futurist and get paid for it? I could sit in front of a TV camera making s**t up all day and get paid for it. But how to get started??

One small step for man. One... giant leap... for mankind...

Worked with a girl with the surname Divine... she was.

Ava?

I can spell, it's the pronunciation of words that is the issue. It shouldnt be that hard for a competent speaker of a language to be able to pronounce a word based on how it is spelled.

You can't just change the spelling of a word overnight. These things happen over time.

Smoko

First day of my first tradie job many years ago, I got asked, "can you go get smoko??"

My reply, "nah, I don't smoke"

My reply, "nah, I don't smoke"

Never heard of the term 'get smoko'.

Only 'take smoko' - as in have a 15 minute break.

Either way, its a horrible, bogan word.

Surprised to hear that - I'm sure just about every tradie and every workshop in Australia says "just off to grab some smoko"

"Butt" in reference to the glutes

Smoko

They only word I look forward to every work day

 

[Xtreme]

A certain swearword that starts with C, hate it being used. Yet I love Campaigner , you can use it with mean intent and if the other person doesn't catch on then it's even better.

 

[Damon_3388]

Can't stand hearing ocker campaigners continuously refer to someone as "old mate". Always sounds stupid and patronising. Just use their name FFS.

 

[Scotland]

Who refers to someone whose name they know as old mate?

Old mate should be reserved for referring to anonymous parties.

 

[ioppolo]

Champ or Cobber, mainly when customers call me that. I guess to them it's the same as me saying 'mate', but it just doesn't quite sit right with me.

 

[Hank Scorpion]

Babe/Baby when used for affection.
Quinoa

Couldn't live without it. For one thing Carlin's 'Seven dirty words' would be relegated to six immediately. And it has a musical charm all its own.

What is Bae?

Some poster (who I think is male) on this board (it might have been this thread) admitted to saying 'TShizzle' instead of Taylor Shift and then stated that (in their mind) that they still had a utensil.

That's worse than a thousand "bae"s
