No he's not - he's from Liverpool, they're renowned for their humour, their music and the fact that half of them live near me and claim their dole money whilst sitting on the beach!!!!!:sneaky: :wah:



(Sorry Maccat - couldn't resist)

We shall pray for you, maccat, though with little confidence in the outcome.

Okay, this "Merican" was freaking out thinking this person was serious!!

Thank you Immy for clarifying....

Still, can't be helped. You never know, you might hold out, these medics don't always get it right. Let us know how things turn out". If you hear us screaming anguished regrets you'll know it's a total wind-up.

Nothing personal, it's just that the site has had flurries in the past triggered by a lack of transatlantic recognition where black humour's concerned.

I have a friend who, while we were schoolmates, wrote to the local girls' school announcing the death of one of their pupils while she was off with chickenpox and signing it with her father's name. You wouldn't believe the trouble he was in after it got read out in morning assembly. Demented was one of the more restrained terms.

Yes, the daft winged ornament is me, it was taken at a local amateur dramatics performance three years ago.

I took it for a joke at first and a pretty funny/shrewd one too but I wasn't totally positive so hung back before I said the wrong thing. Now that I know it is in fact a joke, it's funnier yet.

Maccat, I don't think anybody was insulting you. Words don't always translate well on here and can come off as harsh when they're not supposed to be. This happens with me all the time.

It was a funny joke.

Somebody want to tell me what a scouser is??

Here i am once again apologising, its becoming something of a habit. Sorry Spot for the misunderstanding and also the winged ornament, the reality of I am impressed. And thanks Red Glitter for your words.

No problem, Maccat. :-6

A Scouser is a native of Liverpool.



For which they are (truly) sorry.

Yes thats right i am truely sorry for being a scouser, more superior, intelligent, powerful successful than those from other areas of the globe. Sorry once again(I truely am):-6

You Uk'ers and your funny words!

I swear I'll never learn all there is to know. So are you saying a scouser is a derogatory term? I'm just asking.

I'm Refering To Chookies Comments. A scouser is a nickname we are proud of, meaning a liverpudlian.

By the way Red Glitter the word scouser comes from the word scouse meaning a stew. During the war when money and food was in short supply Liverpool people would make a meal from different vegetables and meat anything they could aquire and basically boil it all up. A cheap way to feed a family during the difficult war years. So no it isn't a derogatory term.

Oh okay, so it's not a mean thing to say. Cool. I'm getting it.

Those jokes are funny, Soberano.

A scouser in a suit, A mirage.

A scouser with a suit, A card shark

Some people say I have a split personality, but we don't care.

:wah:

I was wondering how the word came to be. Thanks for that info.

I love the jokes!

As i say we are called scousers after the word scouse meaning stew. However i'm down on my luck at the moment and short of cash so just call me a souper:wah:

:wah: :-6

This seems to have been left hanging. No, it's not derogatory, it's denotes a place of origin like Okie or Hoosier does.

What the hey was that?! :wah:

I got the "Ferry Cross The Mersey" song and the Manchester Spit was pretty funny!
