I don't know what word you're on about because I haven't read back but if you put the sausage filter on every time you see the t**** /s**** ... whatever, you can mash up your own word as a replacement for it or completely mash it out like I do.

Did you ever play sausage and mash as a kid where you read from a book or a comic and every word beginning with 's' you say sausage and 'm' you say mash - it was hilarious ......... well as a primary school child it was <laugh>

Also, if you have the swear filter on... You must only get about 2 eligible words a post when reading rhc's ramblings! Must make no sense!!!

Not that they make much more sense with the swear filter off....
 
I'd add B for beans and G for gravy as well, can't have sausage and mash without beans and gravy!

To be honest I've been here 20+ years and don't recall hearing an American use the word. It's not one they use. They almost be never use **** either. Far from the everyday 'light' curseword it is in England it's probably considered the most vulgar word there is in the US.

Which is funny considering it wasn't even a slang word at all until 100 years ago.

Little tangent:

Did you know "intercourse" used to mean talk (and never meant sex) and "converse" never meant talk but used to always mean sex?

Somehow over time they swapped places. Awful use to mean the same thing that awesome means now.

University near me is called "converse college". Its an all girls school.

I haven't read through the lot so not sure if you are referring to someone else but i'm certainly not attacking anyone!

I completely agree that there has been some severe **** ups in who we have brought in and we are not out of the woods yet and are still paying for them yes! I would just rather try and look forward now as FSG have backed the committee and BR and we are going again - and it seems to have gone a lot better with a couple of shrewd moves.

Our squad looks quite healthy, looking at your post on the EL thread and our complete second string is an actual team in correct positions etc. Future COULD be bright.

yes the view i have put forward is that for the first time since probably 2007 we've had a genuinely full squad with two players of whatever level for each position and in dded mroe given the numbers on loan.

this has enabled a scenario where we should be able to invest our fund in a one in one out model and drive improvements of quality

in prior years we have either been selling off the crown jewels and getting frees or taking punts on 7/8 players at a time plus getting in loans to fill gaps. now after a period of stability the club has a squad.

the quality of that squad can be debated but it gives a point to improve on as in my view when you start from now it should be "easier" bring in 3 and let 3 go and improve than try to figure out how to get rid of 4/5 dead wood and try and get in 7.

what about discourse then..... what did is used to mean and what does it mean now

I think it must have meant sex with someone you disrespected as in i had converse with Fiona.

It still does. It's the qualifier that gives it its meaning.
Social intercourse still means social communication. In the phrase " sexual intercourse" the qualifier has been dropped so that schoolboys can snigger whenever they hear it.
