I kid, but, well, I heard a lot of gaff about Canadian French from other French-speakers when I was still in a position to speak French. (Realizing you've lost most of a language is very sad. :() |
I don't understand why the term "Dropped the ball" is ever used. I mean, I get what it means... but "Dropped the soap" just works SO MUCH BETTER to get across the same meaning, you know? Rather than just losing a game of catch or basketball or something, you are setting yourself up for sodomy.

Getting "merked" was an annoying term I only learned when I visited Toronto multiple times.
I understand, vaguely, the apparent origin, but come on, mercenaries sometimes like, escort people and shit. |
Doesn't dropping the ball refer to having failed which is nothing like dropping the soap or the implied sodomy of doing so? Or is there some original meaning that I'm unaware of?
|
I really don't see how people are annoyed by slang, what is the big deal?

Honky tonk.
I don't know what it is, or where it comes from. I just know there was a crappy video game somewhere where a redneck trucker would constantly yell that. |

honky was a term used to be racist to white people (that we found hilarious and used it ourselves) Tonk was a brand name for pianos commonly found in such bars. |
