Didn't you guys invent the English language?! I had a lot of fun trying to say all of those, but I barely understood much of them! Remember, I'm just a "Yank". If you are ever in the US, don't ask anyone for a fag. You surely won't be getting what you think you are asking for!! :o

it's all the English language ya know...but words like fags have completely different meanings, depending on which country you are in.

I live in Canada un I know what you mean Cali Gal :o

In the past I've had relatives go into corner stores here and ask for fags, and come out puzzled at the reaction they got :rolleyes:
