Wheat Loaf posted:Boo? That's a bit rude, isn't it? Sounds exactly like... bum! Boo is a racist word. According to my ex who lived in Arizona as a kid, and she couldn't tell this story without laughing about it, someone at the neighborhood pool saw a black kid getting in and screamed "there's a boo in the pool!" in abject terror. http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=boo&defid=3245796 I guess it's a shortening of 'jig-a-boo' or related to the word 'spook' but it such old timey racism it's flipped around to being kind of funny and just an indictment of the person saying it.

Tiggum posted:It's just a normal name though. I guess I just don't know enough girls but I've literally never met anyone named that or heard that name irl other than the actor from that show. I think it's one of those English only names like Jez that just haven't made it over here. Or I'm an idiot. Those aren't mutually exclusive of course.

Wheat Loaf posted:"Jez" or "Jezza" is often a shortened form of "Jeremy" (e.g. Jeremy Clarkson is colloquially known as "Jezza"), sort of like "Gaz", "Gazza" or sometimes "Gal" for "Gary". I know, I've only ever heard it on Peep Show is what I mean. It's not used here at all, but Jeremy obviously is. /derail

ChaosArgate posted:Kind of, yeah. I can tell you that the Vietnamese term for "Air Conditioner" literally translates to "Cold Machine." No one has said it yet so here goes. "air conditioner" is a two word phrase to describe something that is less succinct and descriptive than "cold machine." Something like "washing cat" for raccoon or "electric brain" for computer are funny but "air conditioner" is actually kind of archaic and stupid. In what way is the air being conditioned? It's only because we all use that term and don't even think about it that "cold machine" sounds odd to us.

Maybe the flogging, which they probably called floggy-wogg or some poo poo I know it's apocryphal but "rum buggery and the lash" really sum things up for the English military. And this is coming from a someone who got all wet in the eyes during the scene in Amistad where the English captain or admiral ordered the slaver fort lit the gently caress up.

But it's also possible for the local species to get bigger/meaner too. Given how nasty they are to begin with, that's a scary thought. In my experience they've got great aim as well. At least we don't have to worry about gangs of old ladies roaming the streets yet
