    But you said ( when nobody asked you ) ' I dont ' as refering to not using the word **** and were talking everyday words here , in light hearted manner ,not perfect grammer .

    Give it time my friend

    And you said "Everybody" which would include me and every other person.

    So if you talk about "Everybody" you are including me.

    I don't use 1's and 2's so your comment is incorrect.

    Maybe in future you might consider not using the term "Everybody" as you are using the term incorrectly my friend. :)

    americans use it as the word dance.

    Does anyone else use the word parer instead of sharpener? my inlaws do and it wrecks my head lol!!!

    I say parer and my students laugh at me. They call it a chipper.

    For me it's a thingeymajjiger

    I use that one to, and scarily most people know what it is I'm talking about.

    What about a Doohikkey.

    e.g. or i.e. - You don't know where the doohikkey for that thingeymajjiger is, do ya.

    Everybody in general? Like who?

    Abi doesn't, I don't...most Irish people don't.

    So everybody in general doesn't use the term.

    You should trim those hairs if they're getting to you.:)
