View Full Version : Misc Offseason Thread: What words do you wish had a larger role in today's vernacular?

It's the offseason.

The offseason sucks.

Let's talk about words that kick ass that we don't use enough. I'll start.

Fisticuffs
Fisticuffs is a hell of a word. It rolls right off your tongue. And it sounds cool as hell. But the real reason it needs to be used is there is a massive difference between 2 gentlemen settling a disagreement with fisticuffs and a knock down drag out fight.

Rubbish
Our dorky big brothers across the pond don't fuck it all up. Rubbish is a great word. You can tell me virtually any joke and if you work "rubbish" in there I'll probably laugh. Plus, if you use rubbish reguarly in regards to general trash/garbage, it saves the word "Trash" for trailer trash types. Packs more punch that way.

What do you have?

Let's start a grass roots movement to change our language for the better.

Oh I love fisticuffs. That's great.

And you're right. There is a huge difference.

I feel that word is adequately represented in today's vernacular.

EDIT: Mine anyway, ya fuck.

Savvy. But not in the shrewd sense. In the verb/pirate sense. But only if I could sound like Johnny Depp when I said it.

Hoedowns are more structured dances to mountain music.
Hootenannies are any boisterous get together.

Kind of like the difference between a party and a disco.

Close enough.

A hoedown is a community social event featuring organized square dancing, whereas a hootenanny is a community social event stressing the playing of musical instruments (such as the fiddle, guitar, or piano), though dancing can also occur.1

My wish has been granted, thanks to Maureen Dowd of the NYTimes (https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/20/style/tom-ford-maureen-dowd.html):

Lisa Eisner, who has done jewelry collaborations with Mr. Ford and inspired the Alessia character in his 2016 film, “Nocturnal Animals,” said that he doesn’t expect everyone to be as persnickety as he is.
