euphamisms

so, we discovered that somehow in jag's own particular blend of "worldy naivetee" that he didn't know what "light in the loafers" meant.

so what else is he(are we) missing? put down some of your euphamisms for whatever...i'm sure wolf has some good ones for "crazy"

i'll start with some i like to use:

Mr. Gotrocks: a rich man

fugly: fucking ugly

chubby chaser: someone who likes "big boned women"

and so on

fugly has two meanings in my experience, usually overlapping, fucking ugly and fat and ugly

buff: big ugly fat fucker, wait, but that's really an acronym...I think.

I always wanted a dog named fugly.

Snotnose...anyone younger than me.

there're good ones for things we don't like to say out loud.

like pooping:

I have to go mail a package

I have to pinch a loaf


or peeing:

my back teeth are floating

i gotta pee so bad i can taste it


you're full of shit:

your eyes are brown

here're some car biz euphamisms in story form. this is fictional except for the one character name...Mr Dick, the sales manager.. he's a real guy. i didnt work with him, but the former finance guy did.

I had this customer named Gus. Gus Tomer. Gus had a very beautiful wife. How beautiful? let's just say that 'I'd be willing to go into the hole' for this deal. Gus had been in looking, and i had called him to see what he thought about the deal. He said his wife liked the car, but wasn't too keen on the number. I suggested that he bring her down to the dealership and we'd 'dicker'. When they arrived, it was clear that she 'wore the pants in the family'. So, in negotiating, i was addressing her. As things often do, we reached an impasse on the number. I had gone as low as i could, and advised her that if she wanted any better of a deal, she'd have to 'talk to Mr. Dick'. Mr Gus Tomer ended up buying, and that was one more car that I had "burning Gas" or, one more set of taillights "over the curb"

Sometimes I tell people I'm going to void liquid by-products.

Or, make a big splash in waste futures.

BTW is euphamism a euphemism for euphemism? Live by the sword die by the sword brother.

not sure if it counts since they are really acronyms.

fubar - fucked up beyond all recognition
snafu - situation normal. all fucked up.
charlie fox - cluster fuck

--------------------
regular euphamisms
taking the skin boat to tuna town
feeding the oneeyed trouser snake
need i say more? yes i'm a pig.

---------------
and for lj - one i have carried over from the car biz - JAG. it's about as versatile as "fuck" could be someone who is a really good person to have a bs session with or someone who talks big but never buys...
