i have no clue what the heck they're saying. it's like watching pulp fiction with all the dark humor in it.

I recommend watching the BBC channel, or some of the British programs on PBS (Mystery and Master Piece Theater) to broaden your view of the English language. BBC actually recommends turning on the closed captioning for one of its shows so us USA guys can follow the language.

Lol I am from Georgia and I laughed my ass off! I understood every word. It doesnt help that I grew up on monty python and other british shows. HEHE my fav line is "Observers on the overseas launch of the car described by another British hack as ‘Oh God, that’s so good, yes, yes, YES!’ say members of the UK media did appear to be ‘quite sleepy’ after their drive in the test cars and that at least one of them was ‘looking slightly flushed and smoking a cigarette’."

Hmm I read it as instead of wanking over the car (in excitement) as they normally would they 'f*cked' it (as in 'it is screwed') because it has had a bit of a slating.
Wanker = Jerkoff btw. (also see 'tosser', 'knob jockey', 'plum plucker', 'cock wrencher' and 'American' ... oops sorry just a joke ;-)) |
