Gas: Pooty Booty

I literally started chuckling alone in my parked car.

[-] VieuxQueb@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 years ago

Should I add parked car ? Not browsing while driving 💥 🚗

"Maybe baby" definitely needs to be a thing.

[-] Raikin@feddit.de 17 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

It actually is, at least in Germany you can buy pregnany tests of a brand called "Maybe-baby".

[-] mustardman@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 2 years ago

Does it also rhyme in German?

[-] Blyfh@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

These aren't actually German words. It's just an anglicism for a proper noun. So yes, it does rhyme in German, but only because it's pronounced the English way.

bites tongue

I GOTTA BE 'WELL ACTUALLY GUY'. I can't help it.

A defib would actually be the Hearty Less Retardy.

Edit: And if that offends you, sorry. But it's literally accurate.

Instead of pedant maybe we can say (and I don't actually mean this as an insult)... picky pricky?

Cats would be furry purries.

Uno, dos, meow, meow, tres, cuatro!

Pretty little kitty chased a thing she saw.

Had a pouch of catnip and a feather boa

Furry purry, furry purry.

Traffic circles are "Twirly Whirlies"

[-] cheezoid2@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 years ago

To non-Americans they’re already “roundabouts”, which is close enough already really

I had to really laugh at "screamy dreamy"

[-] snor10@lemm.ee 16 points 2 years ago

Where is that greentext when you need it?

With the british naming things?

[-] morrowind@lemmy.ml 15 points 2 years ago

This is actually a common pattern in urdu, though not for names.

Like "chai" means tea so :

  • "chai shai" = tea and related stuff
  • "khana wana" = food and related stuff
  • "paisay waisay" = money and related stuff

etc.

I will be calling bumble bees fuzzy buzzys from now on. Thanks!

[-] sverit@feddit.de 13 points 2 years ago

I'm actually ok with all of them.

[-] cholesterol@lemmy.wtf 12 points 2 years ago

Although a group of hippos is a 'bloat', hippos don't float. Surely a floatie bloatie is a life vest!

Lenny: Edit Reddit

[-] ValiantDust@feddit.de 12 points 2 years ago

What I took away from this is that we urgently need to find the person in question and let them name everything. Alternatively the person who came up with the names in the post.

[-] Resol@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago

CRT displays: screenbox funbox

Toilet paper: whitey wipey

Doors: squeaky creaky

Chips: crispy crunchy (applies to fries too, known in the UK as chips)

Mirrors: lookie selfie

It comes from WWII soldier slang, so it's more like if US soldiers named everything.

[-] basxto@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 2 years ago

feetie heatie actually sounds good

[-] Gimly@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

Seeing this meme always remind me that they decided to translate "walkie talkie" in French to "talkie walkie"... I mean... Why?
