When you prefer old movies & music because in your POV most modern stuff stinks.

You can't find any "good" music on the radio, so you sing your favorite songs.

You're right. What the media insists is good music, or a good movie is trash.
Same with some of the tv shows; especially 'reality' shows.
Good grief.

I went to McDonalds with my dad, who has a full head of gray hair and was about 55 at the time, and he was given the senior discount without anyone asking his age.

I still make fun of him for it. But he laughs and was sort of happy it happened because he got a discount and I had to pay full price!

Cool bananas.

Here's some of my guesses:

Banna Bender - When you talk someone's ear off
Good on ya- When someone has a crush on you
Pass me the sauce - When someone asks for some kind of alcoholic beverage
Cool bananas- When we/I say it here in the US it means that something is really good!

The others I have no clue.
 
oops
I misspelt the Banana Bender.. it means a person from Queensland (Australia),"good on ya "just means good for you.

Now daks= mens underpants
Cark it = to die
pash = kiss

So if someone wants to pash you well you better pucker up the lips in anticipation...


Have a good one..

Did I get the other's right?

Any one know what cooties, a wedgie, or a noogie are?
 
Cooties = Lice
Wedgie = underwear pulled up from behind deep into your "crack"
Noogie = hard knuckle rubbing of your head by someone else
