I've just in recent weeks found out (on this very website) some 1970s canadian slang's meanings.
I remember Cheech and Chong had some remark that was incomprehencible..."Holysnappinaresholes" it was....I just thought it was crazy talk...but now I know it's a newffie origin bit of coloquial blither.
Cheers to all of you who keep this going. (silly as it is)

"Bling" is actually a term from Harlem of the 20's. A lot of slang is recycled. But it has been my weird experience to hear "bling" in an old black and white movie. Very odd.

at the risk of this becoming a slang discussion thread, lots of what we perceive as hip-hop slang came out of 1930's/40's jazz and crime slang
this is the book to read re: straight from the fridge, dad
kon, you have beavis and butthead in uk? those two terms are from that.

Cheers J$, I just parted with some folding and ordered me a copy.
Yeah we got B&B but I don't know exactly what those terms mean.

beavis had a character wherein he called himself 'cornholio,' and pulled his shirt over his head. it was a rude parody of a third-world person, with the name sounding vaguely hispanic but the term "cornhole" means to "do it thru the back door," so to speak
'teepee for my bunghole' was cornholio's main mission in life. teepee = tp = toilet paper, bunghole i guess is pretty self-expanitory

Minging is something that smells really unpleasent, and it's use has been widened to include anything that's deeply unpleasant. It tends to be used by Kappa Slappers (somewhat self-explanatory) & Chavs.
Good call on the 'Straight from the Fridge Dad' book - a classic written by the ex-drummer from Gallon Drunk.
A vast amount of new British slang arrives via Viz comic: http://www.viz.co.uk/
Try searching out their 'Roger's Profanisaurus' - the book of British obscenities. It describes minging thus:
"Ming v. Scot. To emit a foul smell, to hum. 'Hoots mon, it's minging in here'."
"Ming the Merciless n. an exceptionally foul smelling fart"

And when applied to the female directly
'What a minger!' (spoken with a nasal drawl)

Great, great thread. You guys really got me giggling my arse off this morning...there's a bunch of old ladies not 10 feet away learning how to quilt, and I all I want to yell is: "teepee for my bunghole!"

I received my first text message last night. My husband is attending a military leadership training course(think basic training from hell) and has to keep deadly quiet in his room at night, so the sweetie sent me a nice message on my phone. Finally a legitimate use for stupid text messaging!
