Well, thank god I've found you! Where have been all my blogging life? Just flipped through the very merest bits of your blog and, DV, my friend, I read her autobiography in 1987! I have a photocopy of her interview in Interview! I'm an old (middle-aged) fan. And now on to Lady Mendl - I read about these women in university, again, a long time ago. Finally to have found a kindred spirit. OMG! Bless you!
Neither "whoa" nor "I'm loving" pass my lips. "Oh my G--d" I prefer not to use and "omg" is not a pleasing substitute. "Omfg" is totally offensive. "Oh, my gosh" sounds so mealy-mouthed and "fricken" well ... nuff said! I'm such an old fart as far as language is concerned, but that is not to say I don't swear.
OMG (and all others of its ilk) is like pouring a glass of whiskey and then just smelling it. Just get out with it!
(On a side note, a number of vendors I do business with prefer to be called by their initials. There are days where I feel I'm spouting a mouthful of gibberish and random letters rather than any discernable language.)
OMG im afraid i DO...quite often in fact...but im an 80's girl and grew up during Frank Zappa and the Valley Girl era. I suppose i should leave it behind but it feels rather a part of me. x Colette
Neither do I "woo hoo" or "ha!"
ReplyDeleteLady Mendl - "Now. Darling. You really must pull yourself together. We can't have a scene in front of the gingham."
ReplyDeleteI have to admit, I do occasionally. This is a classic photo!
