At Home Funnyspeak

[icyfroth]

Do you and your partner have a private funnyspeak? Things you'd never say in front of anyone else?

I have some mince thawing on the sink for bolognese tonight. With noodles.

Except, we call noodle doodles, just between us. In funnyspeak. 

We also call rissoles a55holes.

So the conversation just now was:

"we having doodles for dinner tonight?"

"yep unless you prefer a55holes?"

"nup, don't like a55holes much"

"nah I prefer doodles too"

Ahh, yes indeed, we did.

We used to say "want a cup of coffee"?  We didn't mean coffee.  And other variations on that question.

We still call mild American mustard 'wild' American mustard because that is what my son said he wanted on his hot dog when he was very young.

Not a good idea, icy.  Thaw in fridge or you get bacterial growth leading

to food poisoning.

Can make you very ill.   If you always do this, then you have been lucky so far.

My SIL always greets visitors and guests with a loud and grumpy " whad do you want"  even if she hasn't seen them for years.

My hubby is away alot. If either of us rings the other, the opening greeting is always "what are you" followed by "what are you first"

One that my man and I do is "get ur own prescription" when we use each other's come back.

If I ask my partner....say......."why" he will respond with how, then I will go when, then he will go who.....what......etc

My eldest when a toddler called earrings, earring pearings. And the clothes line was called the hang line.
Can't think of any more, too much Father's Day cheer here 🙂

My ex used to (or still does actually) add a lilting "love you" in a sing song voice on to the end of a sarcastic or pointed comment.

He accidentally did it once to a guy at work

We also call buns (bread rolls) bums as in hamburger bums and hamburglars and fishburglars instead of burgers. Bolognese is easy peasy boloneasy.

My little grandson who's now 6ft and 22 used to say concen-strate instead of concentrate, and we still often say that.

In our house, if anything goes wrong or needs fixing we say "Dat it with a normal hammer." That's because some years ago my sisster bought a bicycle puncture repair kit with Chinglish instructions one of which recommended doing this after gluing the patch on.

We also tell people "You'll need a tray." quite odten - but I suspect anyone who has watched Eddie Izzard says that.
