Have you started using 'aye' or 'wee' yet???
And also, how can she never have heard of Cheers when it's one of the best things ever to come out of the U.S.? Hasn't she heard of Cheers, the best bar in Boston!?
Uncultured swine, lol |

i do say wee!! haha....well hers is a unique situation...she went to a private school for a lot of her adolescence and has like no knowledge of pop culture prior to the mid 90s! hahaha my poor friend...it's been an uphill battle getting her to know what the hell i refer to on a daily basis....and i've given up on her music preference... |

Don't worry about hookah. It's kind of worse feeling than smoking pot... uh... not that I would know... AH THE JIG IS UP!
But seriously, it's kind of overrated, the only good part is that it's flavored. Everyone always goes for apple for some reason... |

Oh Paul! I've started to put wee into my daily dialogue. I love that word. But then again I say wee when I mean pee or urinate... but I'm trying to use it as a substitute for small! |
