I love that shirt…..

I doubt, however, that “duh” comes from the words for yes. I think it more likely comes from the expressions of stupid people who use “throat clearing” words and sounds. “Duhhhh…I dunno…” for example. And, so to mimic stupid people, the term was standardized to “duh.”

    Try this – make one video yourself, and then make another video hosted by an overweight, homely schoolmarm. See which one gets flagged.

    How about looking into the word “firm?” Why is a law business called a “firm” and why are some other white collar companies called “firms?”
