Heh, I use it everyday
“I wish I was happy…”

There was a podcast episode years back about how large quicksand loomed in popular culture for a whole generation, before vanishing as a concept almost completely.
And sure enough, I remember as a kid in the 80s worrying about stumbling into quicksand while wandering around the bushes in rural Canada.
Then I forgot about it as a concept until I heard it on that one episode, and I haven’t heard it since.
There’s a John Mulaney joke about this
Huh…I can’t find it on YouTube, but it rings a bell. Was it something like “quicksand played a much smaller role in my life than I expected”?
I’m fairly certain it’s in “New In Town”
As a Canadian you should be more concerned with muskeg.

As a kid in 90s Australia I was also led to believe that quicksand was more of a threat than it turned out to be, lol
Myrrh. I used to hear it as a kid in church. Haven’t heard it in decades by now.
Bro isn’t playing enough Fire Emblem.
Ditto to frankincense
I’ve seen it on incense labels, but never spoken outside of a churchy setting.

How?

Do you mean how I pronounce or why I say it? If the latter, just because it sounds funny to me and it kind of became a running gag.
I meant how do you even pronounce that.
I’ve always said it like “cawv-fee-fee.”
I pronounce as if it were a Spanish word. lol
Affordable housing
So “affordablehousing” then? 😂
Looks German
We actually have a word for that: unauffindbar
Doesn’t that mean unfindable?
You are right. It’s a joke because there is absolutely no affordable housing to be found in Germany.
Ah gotcha
Seems like there’s a word for everything in German!
There is. That word is “alles”.
For a change the German word is shorter than the English one, and it’s the English one that’s smashing two existing words together.
Cowabunga and tubular!
80s were a good time!
Gnarly, dude.
Every time I see someone at work carrying tubes I can’t help myself and say “totally tubular my dude!” Lol
Rad!
I say rad near daily. Be the change you want to see in the world!
Bodacious!
I say cowabunga all the time…
Gnarly!
Truthiness
As a software developer, I actually use “truthy” and “falsy” pretty regularly for “the computer thinks this value is true/false”
Just remember that even though None is Falsy, an array of Nones is Truthy. Gets me every time. I fucking understand it logically (because the array itself exists) but damnit if I can make my lizard brain comprehend it while coding it.
because the array itself exists
More specifically it’s because the array isn’t empty.
Yup you’re more right than I was. An empty array is still Falsy even though it exists. I accept the correction.
Strategery
Vituperative. It’s such a good word too.
Oh, that’s good. A new one for me!
From WordNet (r) 3.0 (2006) [wn]: vituperative adj 1: marked by harshly abusive criticism; "his scathing remarks about silly lady novelists"; "her vituperative railing" [syn: {scathing}, {vituperative}]
Isn’t that a great word? I used to read a lot of Canadian classic literature and it was often in there.
Also garrolous is a good word.

Actually I spelled it wrong, it’s garrulous. My bad!

The Internet is not something that you just dump something on. It’s not a big

Surplus
Phat! As in cool. Haven’t heard that one in wellllll over a decade.
Dag. Not like Snatch “ya like dags” but like “dag, yo”.
Well that certainly cleared up any concussion I had about which dag you meant.
Maybe like embroidered dags?

Nope. Replace dang or damn with dag and use it like that. So instead of damn, yo. It’s dag, yo.
Skedaddle
I shout this at the cat when she’s underfoot
Underfoot is another word I never hear anyone using outside of books.
I use this very regularly.
