not sure that's the understanding in England.

Whatchoo say about ma fanny, boy?

Really? I thought that 'fanny' was US colloquial for butt or something, as in fanny-pack?


Well maybe it was a word of yours, but you guys decided to get rid of it because the Brit's kept on confusing it with minge. "Fanny"

No one I know uses it on a regular basis.

We usually say ass. Or butt (though I personally never use that word). Or maybe bum on occasion.

i say booty, butt, ass, or hind quarters

Ok my crisis is over. You can lock this thread now.

Maybe I'll start one on 'minge'.

Here's why:



U cant call this a booty pack, or an ass pack, or a ba-doonka doonk pack. Its a fanny pack!

Without the word "fanny" we'd have to call it one of the above terms, and that just wouldnt be right.

Would it?

we call it a "bum bag" with no serious ill side-effects.


Did anyone else smirk when Nick Faldo used to thank his caddy after winning championships by yelling, "FANNY !!!!!" at the top of his voice?"






just me then.

Golf is great.

Brisk walk, nice chat, few beers at the end.

Perfect.

Beers. Walk. 'Chat'. I'm more used to Beers. Chat. Beers. Walk. Beers. Fall. Beers. Dribble.

a bum bag, ehh? Interesting...
