Words

I love the English language, I'm also fascinated by other parts of the world and the way they speak. Their different accents, different slang words, and even sometimes a different language all together. I have to say, that my favourite foreign word is schadenfreude (although thats probably more down to my sense of humor than the sound of it). That word is coming from the country who's word for nipple translates as chest-wart...
  I love the great names we have (Boris, Jeeves etc.), but the thing I love the most in the Wide world of words is..... (drum roll needed) the great words we have. I know how obvious that sounds, but no-one can say that words like jingle, numpty, Discombobulate don't make you smile.
So, here is my favourite words and names that would make even Eyore smile.....

Words 

Chuckle: I have to start with my favourite, Its so cheerful, it makes you chuckle just reading/hearing it.

Confuzzled: This isn't a real word, its a word me and my friends made up in school (along with brunkett and plosh), it means: to be confused, I'm confuzzled.

Fudge
Gazebo
Commode
Snazzy
flummoxed 
Moo
nozzle
waffle
bubble
bamboozle
surly
silly
onomatopoeia
spunk
hullabaloo
pickle
conundrum
dappled
buzz
nincompoop
pointy
goblin
maestro
lackadaisical 
sprocket
douche: sounds like a large rock splashing in water
ninny
rinky-dink
kerfuffle
Jingle 
Numpty
Discombobulate
Corking 
Chit-chat
Thats all I can think of now, I will be back with more later (maybe), but I haven't finished yet (sorry). In my English lessons, we're studying Shakespeare (yawn), but there is a plus side, think of all the great words he uses. The following words are taken from A Midsummer Nights Dream...

Methinks
pert
pomp
nosegays
sweetmeats
cloister
betwixt
dotes
knitteth
carthage

They're as many as I can get right now (because I too tired to read anymore of that soppy drivel!). I have to say this (despite the fact it is the saddest joke ever) What did shakespeare say when he was choosing a pencil.... 2B or not 2B!!!!!!!!!!! HA HA HA LOL and so on.

Names
i wish I was called some of these... (not the girls names though)

Fred
Bob
Bill
Boris 
Alfred
Samuel
Remington
Desdemona
Penelope
Doris
I'll add more later, give us a hand and leave some of your favourite words/names.

The best of youtube





If I'm honest this won't be much of a tribute, because my idea of the best youtube videos will probably be vastly different to yours (and even if you do like them, they will be removed by youtube in a few days due to a copyright claim).




Motorsport:  (this isn't in order.)

1. The best overtake in formula 1 (spa Francorchamps Mikka Hakkinen vs Michael Schumacher) By the way I have no idea what the bit at the end is.......



4. Massive Formula 1 crash (don't worry, its not violent)


6. Petter Solberg crash Hinkelstiens are used to keep tanks on the road by the way, thats why the roof was slightly dented.

7. The luckiest photographer ever Why does he look shocked when the car crashes and then instantly picks up his camera as if every-things normal?!

8. Chris Atkinson He went on to finish in a points place 

9. BTCC Tribute Top Gear at its best (I know this video's not from youtube)

10. American truck racing impressive

The Simpsons:

11. Evolution Intro (the music's slightly (very) weird) 


13. New Intro Its a, er.... new simpsons intro

14. Real - life simpsons intro why doesn't Marge have blue hair?!

funny:

15. Baby 

16. Shteeve Mclaren He moved to Holland and picked up a dutch after only a week

17. Michael McIntyre On friday night with Jonathon Ross, very funny

18. Talking cats My cat sitting next to me is really creeped out by that video

19. prison break Idiots

20. Runaway tyre One in a million chance

21. Penalty You can watch this a 100 times and still laugh

22. Surfing You can watch this a 100 times and still laugh 2

23. Frankie Boyle The queen's Christmas message

24. Sneezing Panda Everyone's seen it, but that doesn't make it any-less funny

25. Cat Gymnastics Only in Japan

26. Little Becky Demolition phone call

27. Your phone What happens if you talk on it at a concert

Adverts:

28. Nissan Qashqai Skateboarder

29. VW EOS advert Lots of random giant objects

30. Cadburys gorilla A classic

31. Honda cog thingy Another classic

32. Sky penguin I love this (sorry about the quality)

Other:

33. Dinner on the tube Look at the faces of the people watching 

34. A guide to marshaling An RAF charity thing 


36. Noah

37. Dance The evolution of


39. Amazing basketball tricks Rock on duuuuude.........

40. Tony Royster JR  12 year old drummer

41. 5MPH crash How did she manage that??!!

42. The Stig talks We can use this video to try and work out who The Stig is!!!! (oh wait its Ben Collins, isn't it?!)

43. Levitating water Very cool

44. Impressive ping pong rally It looks too good to be true......

Videos not on youtube:

1. Snowboarder Very Lucky

2. TV reporter Vs sled


4. Extreme vodka stunts Can Kimi Raikkonen do that?!


When I looked back on this I realized that (the are 49 videos and that) it hasn't been much of a tribute, has it? Half of these videos are about events I like, that just happen to be on youtube, six of them aren't even from youtube (and I missed out a fat canadian man singing in his bedroom). At least I tried.

PLEASE READ THIS

As you can (hopefully) see, I have changed the name of my blog, because my old name was lame. I hope it isn't a problem (it won't be because no-one reads this anyway).

unanswerable question (that has an answer)

I heard this the other day and I had to show you it.......... (its not real)

a man and his son were involved in a car crash,
quite a bad one. the father was killed instantly, the son was
badly hurt. He was rushed into hospital, where the doctor said: 
I can't operate on him, he's my son.
hows that possible?


Answer: 
the doctor was his mum - this is to test how sexist you are.... 
or something along those lines 
                            
                                     ********************************************

Talking of sexism......... 



                                       ********************************************

I found this on the internet the other day:


Beautiful eh?


oh and I might make another blog about cars, so that car bores like me can have a er..... yet another blog about cars. (and so normal folk can read my 'gripping' blog without having to put up with me showing you a new car every other post)

Robert banks

I'll set the scene for you, English, lesson 3, we were told to write a poem. and this is what my friend came up with (he wasn't messing around, this really was his best work.......)

she died, she did, she died of a broken rib, she did, she died, she did, 
she died of a broken rib, she did. 
she did, she died, she died, she did.
Of a broken rib she died, she did.

Just reading it actually makes it sound good........
but he then started reading it like a horse racing commentator.
I was crying with laughter. Seriously try and read that as 
fast as you can. I still don't know how he kept going 
without making a mistake.
