Words that should be banned from VST

I probably spend more time on here than I should, but as I read some of these posts, there are certain words that just simply shouldn't be used...Try working some of these into a normal conversation and see if you don't get a giggle.

broth - ever use that word in a conversation? I laugh every time I read "I had some warm broth." I cook for a living, and not once have I ever made broth. Soup, yep, stock yep, broth...uh..no..

Bougie - Didn't even know what this meant, and still don't. (Don't wanna know either) Word shouldn't be used in mixed company. When people start comparing their bougies, I think those posts should be restricted to the men's room forum.

Surgerversary - Again, WTF? Can't we use normal english? You had surgery on X date or a year ago I had surgery. I can't go down to the Hallmark store and get you a surgerversary card.

Onederland - Where is this place? Is this in Canada? Again, try using that in a normal conversation. I'm sure you'll get some confused looks.

Feel free to add your own favorite banned words....

(btw, for all you out there that had your sense of humor removed with your stomachs..this is a little Saturday night levity.)

LMAO.. You guys are are over the top on this one. Lol

I'm sitting here laughing, giggling, almost slimmed on my 7 week Surgeryversary!

Love it.

  • 3 weeks later...

Already addressed, I know, but my pet peeve is the mistake of using loose for lose. You lose weight, then your clothes get loose. You don't "loose" weight!

Thank you all for some much needed levity! /[wacko]/

That's just as bad a man talking about his penis in the third person :P

Does that mean buplee shouldn't talk about buplee's manhood anymore?

That's just as bad a man talking about his penis in the third person :P

Lmao! I think there's already a thread on that in the Men's Room...

Onederland is where you can bougie on your sugerversary & Celebrate with some warm broth! Don't you know anything!! :-D

Hahaha good one! :)

Here's two more that I got hit with a little while ago. Where folks get their information...I really don't know..

Pouch - we have no pouch, we have stomach. We also don't have tiny tummy, but I've ranted on that one enough.

Absorption - We aren't in RNYville here folks......Food nutrients are absorbed in the intestines. Some, but very little absorption happens in the stomach. That's where food is broken down then passed on.

The Clue Store must be closed today...... :rolleyes:

Hint .. For the some who can't remember.

The moose is on the loose

So far my weight LOSS hasn't been much, but when I LOSE more I hope the skin on my arms won't hang to LOOSE!!

Drum Roll Please.........

So today "Sleevie Wonder" and I are standing on the top of the "loosers" bench doing the "bougie" dance and super excited and flapping the "bat wings" to announce that the BMI-o-meter just hit a whopping 29.8, meaning that I am no longer an "o-beasty", merely overweight.....WHOHOO. Next stop on the "journey" is "onederland" . My Stalker-"NUT" is soooooo excited!! I will be celebrating tonight with some fine dining of coca cola and pizza, followed by some beers and maybe a few cocktails, and if I am not lying prone in an ER, will top the night off with a bacon cheezeburger! After all, I am not on a diet!!! I am so glad to have joined the "sleeved side " and have this wonderful "magical tool".

And just in case:

joke - verb: Make jokes; talk humorously or flippantly.

all except for the BMI part!!
