The real question is, how Luton am I? Yes, these are two different things and for my own sake I hope not a lot.
I feel it has been a while since I have posted on something that was not a trip I had taken or updated on things I have learnt since being in the UK. So I thought I would share some of the funny slang/terms used in the UK, and more specifically Luton.
I will do my best to translate these...but I can not guarantee anything--some are still puzzles to me.
Slang Used in a sentence What it means in Canada
That's wet That's wet Miss. ????
Knocked Up I'm going to knock you up I'm going to beat you up (not i'm going to get you pregnant)
Bang You I'm going to bang you I'm going to hit you (not I'm going to have sex with you---you can see how this could be confusing used inline with the slang above for me)
That's Dread That's dread Miss That's boring.
That's Long That's Long Miss That's too hard
Bliss Miss is Bliss 'Best' or 'easy' (not strict and mean)
Safe Safe (while fist pumping) Props
Spud Me Blood Spud Me Blood (" ") Props
I can't be asked I can't be asked Miss I don't want to do that
My favourites are Bang You and Knocked Up, especially when very maucho male students get mad at each other and use in the same sentence--I am going to bang you and knock you up. I cannot help but question their biology knowledge of sexual reproduction.
