Words, usages, and phrases that annoy the shit out of you...

we have whole threads on butthurt tbf

Names of farts by their sensation doesnt dmac

Count*

'butthurt' feels like a homophobic slur, even if it isn't. 'bag of dicks' and 'cockfarmer' are fun to dispense because i can't see anything homophobic about carrying dicks in a bag and/or planting them in a field.

guys

i know youve had a tough few months but listen

you have got to, really got to, stop saying leader of the free world

you have to. it was kinda shit before but it doesn't even wash as ironic now.

what are the best ways to tell someone a particular person is sexy. is "sexy" the best? i see "hot," and "gorgeous" pretty frequently.

"total babe" works for any gender imo

best not to mention it at all imo but if you must

"lovely" a la fr ted

xp i almost included a sarcastic disclaimer that commenting or even thinking about anyone's attractiveness is objectifying and should never be done but i thought it was too on the nose oops

idk, everyone's thoughts are their own
it's the words that bring the thoughts into the open that might get you into trouble/chafe

I just walk up to people and hold my nose and go "...damn"

Always thought it odd when people describe other people as a "brick shithouse" when complimenting their body. I think it's American but I'm not sure. It seems to have been around for decades. It just sounds awful.

When Christina Aguilera was on a Scottish MTV thing she said someone complimented her as a "radge wee midden". Never heard "midden" as a compliment before because it's a pile for farm animal shit.

shithouse id have put as british isles m8

you didnt manage to connect scotch midden pronunciation to maiden?

srsly?

ya i said scotch

i've never heard the term "brick shithouse" before tho obv "brick house" don't know why ppl thought it was missing the word "shit" in the idiom

shithouse is smaller

building a shithouse out of brick means that you get a particularly solid structure as opposed to building a house from brick which is quite the norm and therefore pointless as a comment on someones extraordinary build.

anything ele?

feel like if u build a shithouse out of brick that suggests you're using the shit as a replacement for mortar or maybe even the concrete foundation and obv this is a terrible terrible idea

Midden=maiden doesn't sound right and I can't imagine anyone using it. Can't find anything from a search of the two.

yeah but you are accepting xtinas recollection, attempt at recreation and transcribing of a word a scotch person, yes scotch, said to her a while back cmon

mordy i already explained to u the shithouse its clear that you would be deliberately trying to misunderstand were you to follow the tiresome path to the assumption of actual bricks of shit.

Radge wee maiden? I dunno. The guy might just be calling her dirty (which was a listed usage of midden), like the song she did.

Don't know why some people are bothered by "scotch".

Shithouse still sounds like a terrible compliment.

She's a brick shithouse,

She's midden, midden...

Thanks Neanderthal.

from the right angle she kinda does look like a shat house tho

also highly contextual but you dont tell a woman shes sexy, you do it with your look while saying hi or well well well and do the thing with yer eyes

context dependent probs a better way to put it

please note the original question:

"what are the best ways to tell someone a particular person is sexy."

not what is the best way to tell someone that THEY are sexy

WTF I have never heard "built like a brick shithouse" used as a compliment to a woman!? Its always been a comment for a man who is really solid/cut.

srsly I've never heard that used for a woman, which is what i found weird about that article I posted

I'd only heard it about women until recently.

I updated my list with a couple of entries from this list, a couple of which I've heard, disturbingly, in the last few days.

Oh good lookin out mords

Rly dont get what the problem with sexy is then

seems p irreplaceable

Other options seem worse

you have got to, really got to, stop saying leader of the free world

^^^otm

Brick shithouse is an Australian term, but you'd never use it for a woman, unless you were trying to be incredibly insulting

yeah its fellas only

It's weird, I am built like a shit brick house

just to clarify, the house is made for shitting in and the bricks are made of brick

I'm not sure if its an Aussie thing exclusively? Given for eg the Placebo song.

I thought it was British tbh.

Have outside toilets ever been a thing in Australia (or the US, for that matter)?

i think part of the problem is that you rarely see shithouses with unrealistically huge cartoon tits

gazza

More like Raoul Moat surely.

bushes are for #1
trees for #2

Have outside toilets ever been a thing in Australia

LOL hecks yes. Freestanding outside pit toilets (we used to have one at our beach house), and in older homes even now you might find a toilet tacked to the back of a house only accesible from outside.

Ah, just like the Mother Country.

Aye.

Or any human features.

i've heard "built like a brick shithouse" plenty of times irt a babe. i figured it was an elongated version of "built like a brickhouse"

I seen it all the time referring to large attractive women. Sometimes the guys would start by explaining "this doesn't sound like a compliment but it is".

have never heard it in anything like that context it simply is an incorrect usage tbh

Sometimes the guys would start by explaining "this doesn't sound like a compliment but it is".

that should tip them off that what they're about to say is not quite right xp
