I don't think I've done this before. If I have, we'll chalk it up to a MAM (Middle-Age Moment). Found on Lollygaggin.
Your word is SHIT. You are laid back and relaxed,
and most people like you. You don't especially
want to stand out from the crowd, you are
pretty happy with your lot.
Which Swear (Curse) Word Are You?

> Your word is SHIT
ReplyDeleteWell that is a jolly good word. Years ago the RAF tried to teach me Morse code. Not much mind, just enough to be able to send the ID letter of a shackleton before it landing. Your word was a rather nice menomic to help learning morse. In morse it has a rather neat pattern . . . for S, . . . . for H, . . for I, followed by a - for T.
Recently while mowing the lawn I found I could write letters in the grass and this was a very suitable word. Not just because I don't like mowing the lawn but because the straight lines in the letters are easy to do with a lawn mower. T is just one long straight stroke with another crossing the top at right angles. I could not be easier. H is a little more tricky because you must start and stop that cross stroke at just the right moment. S was my undoing though. Not just because it is a succession of curves but because I managed to reverse it.
Anna looked at it with total disgust and told me to mow over the whole thing. She said helicopter pilots flying out to the gas rig in the bay would read it and think I was dyslexic. Anyway since Anna is German I would like to see how she would get on trying to mow 'Scheiss' into the lawn. Their language may be phonetic but it certainly would not be easy to write their script with a lawn mower.
Have a good day

Thanks for the story, John. It was a nice way to start my day. :)
