    My entry:

    "if tv is a sewage pipe into your home, then the internet is a river of shi t" :D

    By the end of it, if we have enough original entries we publish a book of the best and all become millionaires.

    Also the rule is no checking to see if exists beforehand. Post it and it's original until somebody points out that it isn't.

    'Scrumbling'

    De-scabbing a cat.

    Not a phrase but a word.

    There's a particularly vacuous girl at work about whom I have said that "there's a depth to her shallowness". I think I invented it, but I most likely didn't.

    I use a rude word combo sometimes that I mainly say in my head and not aloud for obvious reasons - cüntfückery. As in "what sort of cüntfückery is this?" When someone had made a balls of what I would consider a relatively simple task......


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,203 ✭✭✭artvanderlay


    fcuk me. I've just checked and quite a few exist already. There are some originals though. Nice!

    I'm putting that (eg phrase) "under my oxture" it's something me an my family know, but I'm curious if anyone else knows where the "oxture" (spelling slightly wrong) is? and where it came from.

    As for made up phrases that are popular (or unpopular) well I'm a "Glad Hag" I'm a transexual person (MtoF) who is comfortable within the LGBT community, because we feel protect by the umbrella group.

    Oxters are armpits right? My family use the term (I first heard it in the sense of "I hope you washed under your oxters now!" when exiting the shower as a kid) and you're the first other person I've heard it from. Nice one!

    Last time I heard 'oxters' was Showjumping on BBC 2. I thought it referred to a type of fence, maybe double and spread out. But it could have been the motion of the rider opening up the elbows to increase the horse's speed and stride.

    Yeah the oxters are the armpits my mam always uses that word when helping someone to stand (ie a drunk/ invalid lol ) she would say "grab an oxter" and lift them to their feet thats the only time Ive ever heard it actually I actually thought she had made that word up until I read it here she uses a lot of words different to their actual meanig I thought oxter was one of them lol
