I am not sure if this will be read but I have a word request of sorts. The english language is fairly vast and there is always something new to learn, however I would be interested in hearing a Russian word and its origins. It is my understanding that Russian has influences from Latin, French and possibly from other regional languages and I would be interested in seeing how they have affected the current russian dialect. Hope to hear a response to this.
Hi,
Just want to introduce myself and say Hi for the first time here.
So OK, here I go, Hi, I’m Possmguts.
Now that the awkward “AA” meeting intro is done, What are we doing here again? I keep getting stuck on Yer Beauty.
You must be from Tennessee, because your the only Ten-I-See.
Just thought I would through that out there for laughs.
I’ll think up a good one for ya.
Bye for now.

My family and I have come to the conclusion that any one that does not like animals is generally not a good person. That being said, I can tell that you are a good person by the way you treat your dog. And in the way you can laugh at your own mistakes. I am glad that you haven’t let your beauty or your brains go to your head. So keep having fun doing what you are doing. Because it looks like there are a lot of people that admire and look up to you now.
Dang Marina, your sister sure does have an attitude.

Hi Marina,
My request is for the phrase, “Its a real McKoy” meaning the item you are referring to, is authentic.
One time I looked it up, and I saw there is a big controversy where it originated. So I believe that you would be the right person to get to the bottom of the truth.
Thanks, keep up the good work.
Dan
mittheman replied on August 21st, 2008 11:10 am:
I think it came from the fued between the Hatfields and McCoy’s. The fued went on so long that a Hatfield could claim he was a McCoy until they figured out he was not a “Real” McCoy.
fianchetto1 replied on September 3rd, 2008 6:43 am:
I saw on either NatGeo or History channel two days ago… one of the first and best “Rum Runners” during the prohibition period was named McCoy. He would meet with canadian ships selling properly produced alcohol from canadians outside the 3-mile territorial waters boundary (now is twelve miles to prevent the rum-runners) and run it in to his blackmarketeers. Most other speakeasys ( Bartenders would request of their patrons of these illegal bars that when ordering drongs to “talk softly - speak easy” to avoid detection by eaves droppers) recieved theit illegal beverages from unreliable sources - makers of “bathtub gin” often added very questionable, sometimes toxic (formaldehyde, etc) ingredients to their hooch to “cut” it and thus increase its potence, and make it go farther (similar to how cocaine resellers mix, like, baking soda to their cocain to make more doses per kilo). Joe Kennedy made his millions selling liquor from Canada to ppl like Mr. McCoy, btw. Prohibition also gave us many of the common mixed drinks served to this day - add fruit juices and other sweet liguids to mask the taste of the formaldehyde and other bitter, possibly lethal toxic additives. Also whence the phrase from barkeeps today, “What’s your poison, friend?”. so, if a speakeasy was getting their illegal spirits from a reputable supplier, it was the “Real McCoy”. Perhaps our Dear Teacher can determine which of us is correct

fianchetto1 replied on September 3rd, 2008 1:50 pm:
I was writing under the premise that either or all of us may be mistaken…even the History channel. I mean, that though unlikely, the History channel may even have gotten it wrong. No offense, please, but I think there may be me the chance that we may all be wrong…paraphrased from “2107 Curious word Origins, Sayings & Expressions from ‘White Elephant’ to ‘Song and Dance’” byCharles Earle:
A prizefighter of the late 1890’s calling himself “Kid McCoy” who was renowned for his skill in the ring, was at a bar, when a stranger came to the bar, perhaps a bit under the influence already, was bragging about his own skill, saying he “Could beat any McCoy”, not knowing he was within earshot of “The Kid”, who proceeded to render the stranger horizontal. On picking himself up from the barroom floor, the stranger supposedly amended his earlier remark with “…Any but the Real McCoy”….
The author offers another possible source, referring to heroine from the island of Macao, off China, like the Canadian liquor, was uncut, and was called the “real Macao”, which was later (like Madame became the popular american “Ma’am) corrupted to become “The Real McCoy.
The author also offers his version of our prohibition story, reminding me that the Rum-Runner’s name was Bill McCoy.

Perhaps a supplication to our Dear Teacher to iron things out for us is appropriate here
I stopped this recess video to give my computer time to download so I could watch it without hiccups. My computer stopped with this picture of Marina. Ok, I now have a new screensaver to pull my computer screen up with for the foreseeable future, but that’s not what this post is about. I’m eating a plate of eggs, grits, sausage links and the rye toast has a nice dollop of marmalade ready for spreading …, and now this face identified as Marina is up close, in my face as I stuff another forkfull of grits in my mouth. I’m swirling a nice mixture of saliva and eggs, bits of grits, chunks of sausage around in my mouth …, and that face is vocalizing some sounds over towards me but no words of hers register inside my brain. I imagine putting the fork down on the table as I rise from my chair …, I watch that face stop moving its mouth as I step closer, … my hand grabs the back of her neck and I help her bend herself over the kitchen table …
Don’t worry Marina, I used to be schizophrenic too, but we’re all right now.

I was wondering where the phrase comes from “To get a girl in the sack” I was watching the Borat movie the other day with one of my russian friends and she said that in some places they still use that same method of getting a girl to marry them as he tried to use on Pamela Anderson. Which was by throwing a sack over her head and carrying her away. I was just curious if this is where the origin of this phrase comes from or if it has some other meaning. Thank you!!

Thanks for the lead Cha Cha. Wow, Marina’s dual personality sister really does exist! Reminds me of “A Theatre for Cannibals”. Be careful. While it is easy to embrace Marina’s knowledge, confidence and strong command of feminine sexuality, I am warming to the contrast of her sister’s struggles and frustrations with her adolescence emerging into maturity, a duality we have all struggled with.
Maybe this explains the two degrees from Gorky, one for each sister?
But screw the psycho-babble, let’s see a world class cat-fight and maybe a mud fight in bikinis. You are either “for” it or your “4″ it!

AMATEUR
Although its origin dates back to the 18th century and relates to unpaid activities that we “love” (from amatore - to love), my question is, when did it became a word for the “inept at a particular activity” since most amateurs (lovers of a trade that they would do or do for free) ar actually very good at it and then the “inept” part does not necesarily apply.
When, why or how “amateur” became “inept”… BTQ do not dearch it in google. Nasty things will show up!

Guys;
I think I may have Marina’s sister’s name;
…….Cтоянка Orlova.
I could not find the English form of her name .
That little Minx’s is a Hottie in Her own right.
A little surly and dark, Wickedly Beautiful.
Does She have a web page? YET!
I am so there when She does.
A good free app for conversion/export is MPEG Streamclip. Has windows & mac versions. It has internal codec plus it uses whatever Quicktime supports and flip4mac ($ for export wmv on mac). I have QT pro & m2v playback (both $ at apple) but regular QT has H.264 — I use Sorensen3 much of the time.
I have used it to smash uncompressed video into web sized bites for a couple of years. http://www.squared5.com/
-d
The best compression for YouTube is H.264 or X.264….. there are discussions on how to get it in this thread somewhere: http://forum.videohelp.com/topic346256-120.html
(there is a free version for the PC online.. mentioned in the thread)
When you export you are using a codec… it’s just that you need to export to a better codec then the one you are exporting to (which is most likely a NOT-compressed codec)
I will try that.. Marinas videos are so clear in HQ. I can sometimes get the “view in HQ” If I convert the file online to h.264 and the rest.. My family guy video did it on its own.. Guess that was because it was cartoons though.
is there and body believe she has sister they are the same person there is no sister , i found the channel and i am sure they are the same person or some body got another opinion
melikadothechacha replied on August 4th, 2008 12:19 pm:
Looks similar to proof of alien photos, or bigfoot or structures on the moon, whereas Marina’s sister is very much real, who else would she be speaking to?
I would like to know where the word pshaw comes from. My grandfather used to say pshaw instead of saying a swear word.

I understand if this is a little too risque for your website. I mean you’re cool Marina but even you have to have limits. Anyway, I’d love to see an episode about this and if you don’t do it I’ll still watch all your episodes.

Beautiful video,
Do you Known the origin of this word ? ” spring “
uhh umm….um….uhhh….i forgot..stuff..
Hi Marina:
I am a magistrate. I hear cases in place of the elected judge. When I hear a case, I have to submit a written decision to the judge for approval. What is the origin of the word “magistrate”? Thanks.
Hi Marina.
I want to know the origin of the word-shit. (Sorry to ask. You know shit right?) My account in youtube is Chrissielim and please reply me. Thanks
Dear Marina,
If your sister is half as pretty as you, please send her to Cleveland. she would be worshiped like the goddess you are.
Can you discuss the meaning of “for the birds” Stretch uses this phrase all the time,and you should call him on this one if you think he can handle it.
marina i cant getur videos to play…i have hi-speed but they just dont play…..hhhhhmmmmm
Dear marina you are very nice… :*,
:
i know the origin of Marina
Marina from the Latin marinus and means son of the sea.
bye from italy
Yes, you are more pretty than your sister. Very pretty. My Brother wants to marry you. Are you free? Or do you have a boy friend?
What do you do for a living, beside you tube stuff? I would like to know the word origin of the word “dipstick” Congrads on your 1 million views.
Thanks
deviance must be kidding
well anyway that does bring up a good word to ask about; “psychotherapy” where did it come from and does “deviance” need it? 
Do you ever show anything?
Hey Marina, I bet that you don’t even have a sister, which is very sad.
Do you even have a social life? I mean, you probably spend most of the day preparing your next video. Please don’t tell me that it is not true because we both know that it is 
Wasting your life in front of a screen is such a shame. You can always get help. Psychotherapy is always an option and I think that you can afford it…
marina,
hi! i really want to see your sisters channel but i dont know what it is, you said that its on the description on the right but i dont see one :S
can u please tell me your sisters youtube channel
Hey moviedude,
Enough already with the freakin SPAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Marina,
Since I may be the most obsequent of your students, I would like to request these four common everyday words…
Breakfast
Lunch
Dinner
Supper
Hi Marina,
My request is for the phrase, “Its a real McKoy” meaning the item you are referring to, is authentic.
One time I looked it up, and I saw there is a big controversy where it originated. So I believe that you would be the right person to get to the bottom of the truth.
Thanks, keep up the good work.

I think it came from the fued between the Hatfields and McCoy’s. The fued went on so long that a Hatfield could claim he was a McCoy until they figured out he was not a “Real” McCoy.
I saw on either NatGeo or History channel two days ago… one of the first and best “Rum Runners” during the prohibition period was named McCoy. He would meet with canadian ships selling properly produced alcohol from canadians outside the 3-mile territorial waters boundary (now is twelve miles to prevent the rum-runners) and run it in to his blackmarketeers. Most other speakeasys ( Bartenders would request of their patrons of these illegal bars that when ordering drongs to “talk softly - speak easy” to avoid detection by eaves droppers) recieved theit illegal beverages from unreliable sources - makers of “bathtub gin” often added very questionable, sometimes toxic (formaldehyde, etc) ingredients to their hooch to “cut” it and thus increase its potence, and make it go farther (similar to how cocaine resellers mix, like, baking soda to their cocain to make more doses per kilo). Joe Kennedy made his millions selling liquor from Canada to ppl like Mr. McCoy, btw. Prohibition also gave us many of the common mixed drinks served to this day - add fruit juices and other sweet liguids to mask the taste of the formaldehyde and other bitter, possibly lethal toxic additives. Also whence the phrase from barkeeps today, “What’s your poison, friend?”. so, if a speakeasy was getting their illegal spirits from a reputable supplier, it was the “Real McCoy”.
Perhaps our Dear Teacher can determine which of us is correct 
Ciao,
Fianchetto1
sorry for the typo — drongs = drinks
fianchetto1 you are correct. I just saw the same episode on History Channel.
I was writing under the premise that either or all of us may be mistaken…even the History channel. I mean, that though unlikely, the History channel may even have gotten it wrong. No offense, please, but I think there may be me the chance that we may all be wrong…paraphrased from “2107 Curious word Origins, Sayings & Expressions from ‘White Elephant’ to ‘Song and Dance’” byCharles Earle:
A prizefighter of the late 1890’s calling himself “Kid McCoy” who was renowned for his skill in the ring, was at a bar, when a stranger came to the bar, perhaps a bit under the influence already, was bragging about his own skill, saying he “Could beat any McCoy”, not knowing he was within earshot of “The Kid”, who proceeded to render the stranger horizontal. On picking himself up from the barroom floor, the stranger supposedly amended his earlier remark with “…Any but the Real McCoy”….
The author offers another possible source, referring to heroine from the island of Macao, off China, like the Canadian liquor, was uncut, and was called the “real Macao”, which was later (like Madame became the popular american “Ma’am) corrupted to become “The Real McCoy.
The author also offers his version of our prohibition story, reminding me that the Rum-Runner’s name was Bill McCoy.
Perhaps a supplication to our Dear Teacher to iron things out for us is appropriate here
I stopped this recess video to give my computer time to download so I could watch it without hiccups. My computer stopped with this picture of Marina. Ok, I now have a new screensaver to pull my computer screen up with for the foreseeable future, but that’s not what this post is about. I’m eating a plate of eggs, grits, sausage links and the rye toast has a nice dollop of marmalade ready for spreading …, and now this face identified as Marina is up close, in my face as I stuff another forkfull of grits in my mouth. I’m swirling a nice mixture of saliva and eggs, bits of grits, chunks of sausage around in my mouth …, and that face is vocalizing some sounds over towards me but no words of hers register inside my brain. I imagine putting the fork down on the table as I rise from my chair …, I watch that face stop moving its mouth as I step closer, … my hand grabs the back of her neck and I help her bend herself over the kitchen table …
Marina is sweet.
Here for you http://www.bordenonline.com/
Don’t worry Marina, I used to be schizophrenic too, but we’re all right now.
i want to know about “tickled pink”
Took some searching but I found it. It seems though from the views that not many others have.
People have been fairly close-lipped about this so I’ll follow the trend.
Baby I don’t care about your sister. I logged into you website because I learn from you and I’m in love with my teacher. Kisses
Dear Marina & phantom sister of Marina,
Your sister’s voice sounds similar to yours. Are you twins? Was this you in this recess video or your sister? With a lesson ever day you must need a break, but having your sister fill in for you is a great idea!
#1 Student
Dear teacher,
“Coquine!” Is it a question? Are you trying to make us search for your sister you tube account? This is not fair!!!!! You know that we are all yours’ ! Yes your sister is a cute mistery, but you ‘re the only one, the true teacher!
Amicalement
Don Felipe qui attends plus ;p
is tht french for DON Filip who waits more….cant figure that out lol i translated thth in my head literally
Dear fellow student,
Well as you have surely already read it, this is a game. Some play it showing how intelligent or how learned they are. Other simply play it in an openly cryptic way ! This is the french for “Don Felipe who wants more” ! (Bravo you are good at french!) This refers to a chat we had with old pals from the teacher’s site about what to wait for when you have been teacher’s pet once.
Thank you to read my coment.
Amicalement
Don Felipe qui aime bien mettre un petit commentaire en français de temps en temps.
Kudos to the guy that posted that comment!
Thats the best example of why being a suck-up student doesn’t get you what you want. Its when you don’t conform to the pack and do your own thing that you get the best results! It generated this video which could be one of HotForWords hottest appearances. I nearly broke my belt! 
Thank you for the kind words
Captain Jack has a “greeter” duty he
performs, allowing myself and others to
freelance. I try to leave as many openings
as possible for others to participate in
the task of providing lesson links and
encouraging newcomers to post, as
well as the usual jovial mayhem!
Feel free to jump in anywhere you see
a way to have some fun. Marina digs it!
“and now, back to the show” LOL!
It isn’t possible to be “better looking” than marina. ‘Equal’-at best.
Being a teacher’s pet is a distinction
no one can take from you, “Jan”.
Never been one myself, but I’m still here!
Captain Jack as Teacher’s Assistant is
telling us that he is also being left to
work out his duty with little input from
Marina. With 100,000 subscribers, it
takes some of the housekeeping chores
off Marina if assistants and pets step up
and participate. Remember when Gio
was chosen as pet? He was very avid
in his campaign, but where he is these
days? I don’t know. For all I know, he’s
camped out under Marina’s bed along
with Kobe, Arnold and whatever creatures
are in Marina’s verdant imagination!
I haven’t seen him, lately, just wrote
him a quick one. Anyway, you have fun!
I ToolmanTim is standing by Hot4Words and I don’t care about your sister or Brett Favre
i dont know if u are right about your sister but well… you are good looking
I was wondering where the phrase comes from “To get a girl in the sack” I was watching the Borat movie the other day with one of my russian friends
and she said that in some places they still use that same method of getting a girl to marry them as he tried to use on Pamela Anderson. Which was by throwing a sack over her head and carrying her away. I was just curious if this is where the origin of this phrase comes from or if it has some other meaning. Thank you!!
Nimby45
did any one find marinas’ sister’s youtube channel
Do you want the easy answer or the cryptic one?
Easy: Yes
Cryptic: Someone else posted the link further down this page.
Hint: for=4
could you go barefoot more often please?
nowadays, everyone seems to opt for cheaper things, like DVD’s that come out B4 the mOvie is even Out in cinema’s, and free music Thru p2p programs Like arEs or limewire. hotforwords, can u fiGure out what i am talking about?
just in CASE u dont get it, study the letters much more carefully…
DVD’s should be dvd’s—>lower CASE
Actually, DVD should be capitalized as it is an abbreviation for Digital Video Disc. A proper abbreviation for a proper title.
i noe, but for my riddle, dvd would have thrown some people off
lol
anybody figured it out yet tho…?
OMG MARINA U HAVE SOOO SEXY FEET AND TOES!! i realllly want to suck ur toes! u should go barefoot more often!! and MARINA PLZ REPLY TO MY EMAILS!!!!!!!!!!!!
I knew there’d be at least ONE like this!
His request is for “fetish”, I betcha!
Yes, but he spells it “feetish”.
Ya sure wats the orgin of the word fetish? and MARINA REPLY TO MY EMAILS!!!!
Welcome to HFW ilikesexytime,
She gets like a million emails. It will take some time to get to yours. Im the TA and I only get a reply once a week or so if im lucky.
I’m the “Teachers pet” and she completely ignores me…. I feel like Jan Brady sometimes.
hey captain jack, marina like ignores me or something cuz ive sent emails out like 1 month ago and she still hasnt replied, maybe even long!!!!
Well Marina, you got me. I can not find her. Could she be your imaginary “halter ego”?
Did you click the coComments link?
Look for the conversation with DJ Doc Rok
You don’t want to miss it!
Thanks for the lead Cha Cha. Wow, Marina’s dual personality sister really does exist! Reminds me of “A Theatre for Cannibals”. Be careful. While it is easy to embrace Marina’s knowledge, confidence and strong command of feminine sexuality, I am warming to the contrast of her sister’s struggles and frustrations with her adolescence emerging into maturity, a duality we have all struggled with.
Maybe this explains the two degrees from Gorky, one for each sister?
But screw the psycho-babble, let’s see a world class cat-fight and maybe a mud fight in bikinis. You are either “for” it or your “4″ it!
Not a big fan of the flagrant shilling…but at least she FINALLY showed some cleavage. I felt like I was reunited with some long lost bouncy friends.
i have heard of a recipe for the way you prepare eggs called deviled eggs and also deviled crabs what does the devil have to do with my food MARINA do you know
also devil’s food cake
(sigh) another “food” request…
how about “devil’s triangle”?
what are devil’s triangles? i never heard of that one is it a pastry or salty
where is your sisters site i have to see this if its true i think its pre recorded and if not i want to make that judgment for myself
How about the term-Sixes & Sevens. I Believe it’s British. but it’s been such a long time since I’ve heard it?
Help teacher!!
I just took a nap and had a nightmare.
I dreamt I was dating your sister and she woke me at 3am with her video.
Listen she’s bullshit, smart ass, stand at attention whore.
I’m getting pissed., I’m gonna tell…
Foggy dream sleep didn’t catch it all.
I’m covered in sweat now and shaking.
She’s a little scary at night.
I woke up dreaming. I was buying
“Hot For Words” wallpaper!
All I had was a sample and couldn’t
find any at the store - sold out!
An omen predicting the 100K
subscription milestone??
hi marina
wats up
Haii Marina!
“Ghetto” or “Awesome” Pleasse :] I’m Baffled
Oops you Already Done one :S My bad :]
AMATEUR
Although its origin dates back to the 18th century and relates to unpaid activities that we “love” (from amatore - to love), my question is, when did it became a word for the “inept at a particular activity” since most amateurs (lovers of a trade that they would do or do for free) ar actually very good at it and then the “inept” part does not necesarily apply.
When, why or how “amateur” became “inept”… BTQ do not dearch it in google. Nasty things will show up!
Hello Marina, I am wondering where the word “honeymoon” originally came from. Hope you respond with a lesson. Thanks!
I’d like to know where “cauterwauling” comes from.
Hey Marina, I’d like to suggest a word. I think that the word “hell” would be very fascinating to lecture on!
Hell-o?
http://www.hotforwords.com/2007/06/12/hello-hello- ahoy-ahoy/
no? hell.
Marina, dear teacher, please disregard these 2 comments, I accidentally posted them on the wrong thread. Sorry.
Ok, Marina, now you have to to a lesson on the “Evil Eye”. (Maybe your Evil Twin could help you?)
And sorry, but he only other phallic god I know is me. I’ve been told I have lot of phallus, see?
Marina, Fast-sin-ate? Isn’t that a number between 68 and 70?
Hey Marina,
What is the origin of the expression “Charley horse?” I don’t really understand the connection between this and the condition it describes.
5 mins ago the vid was Twenty-five with 40000 views, now with 53,326 it is still Twenty-five youtube works in mysterious.. gammy ridiculous ways
Did you ever notice how other
videos with lower numbers of
views manage to rate higher?
What’s up with that?
Guys;
I think I may have Marina’s sister’s name;
…….Cтоянка Orlova.
I could not find the English form of her name .
That little Minx’s is a Hottie in Her own right.
A little surly and dark, Wickedly Beautiful.
Does She have a web page? YET!
I am so there when She does.
Cтоянка for idiots.
Dear fellow student
That is well done ! I don’t know if it is real russian but if it is, you are really good !
Read you soon !
Amicalement,
Don Felipe
You must still be using Wikipedia…
well…
word “patch”, is it possible?
eye patch,
cabbage patch,
patch of sand,
patch job,
Yeah, it may be possible
simple is good - thanks!
Sony vegas.. 30 second clip.. 600mb!! Why..How can anybody possibly use it when this is so huge!
yeah, I know its weird, sometimes vegas does that :S, try a different codec.
How do I do that foxbow? Last time I used a codec (yesterday) I had to re-install my os
rofl.
A good free app for conversion/export is MPEG Streamclip. Has windows & mac versions. It has internal codec plus it uses whatever Quicktime supports and flip4mac ($ for export wmv on mac). I have QT pro & m2v playback (both $ at apple) but regular QT has H.264 — I use Sorensen3 much of the time.
I have used it to smash uncompressed video into web sized bites for a couple of years. http://www.squared5.com/
-d
The best compression for YouTube is H.264 or X.264….. there are discussions on how to get it in this thread somewhere:
http://forum.videohelp.com/topic346256-120.html
(there is a free version for the PC online.. mentioned in the thread)
When you export you are using a codec… it’s just that you need to export to a better codec then the one you are exporting to (which is most likely a NOT-compressed codec)
Thanks Marina. Do you use Vegas or something else?
I ment format ,I kinda forgot how vegas worked, lost it when my hd crashed
i’ll download it again.
She uses a mac
so probably final cut pro.
I will try that.. Marinas videos are so clear in HQ. I can sometimes get the “view in HQ” If I convert the file online to h.264 and the rest.. My family guy video did it on its own.. Guess that was because it was cartoons though.
final cut pro is mac only, You can get the same quality with vegas. you just need a better camera
is there and body believe she has sister they are the same person there is no sister , i found the channel and i am sure they are the same person or some body got another opinion
it’s recess! all I got is this
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQTqKcojrVY&feature =related
You sure youtube a lot don’t you
I have a word request: GULLIBLE…………?
and i have word for u gay
What is the origin of recess?
Another Marina.
there are few similarities,no cigar
(a latin soap opera star?)
Marina smokes cigars?!!!
Marina, maybe you knew, I have known for ages. But did you know on your youtbe video you called “use your TONQUE” Please don’t change it.. I like it.
Oh.. I spelled it with a q? Nice! Must correct! Sorry
No Marina
I like it there!!!!!!!!!!!
MARINA!!!! PLZ RESPOND TO ME I FEEL LEFT OUT!!
Marina and her sister both in the same frame!! I screenshotted it.

Good editing
Looks similar to proof of alien photos, or bigfoot or structures on the moon, whereas Marina’s sister is very much real, who else would she be speaking to?
My gravatar showed up quickly! yay!
On second thoughts… Nice overlapping
I would like to know where the word pshaw comes from. My grandfather used to say pshaw instead of saying a swear word.
I’m curious where the word Masturbation comes from (pardon the pun). I’m also curious about a lot of the slang terms for it, some are obvious but what about, Wanking, jacking off, wacking off, frigging etc.
I understand if this is a little too risque for your website. I mean you’re cool Marina but even you have to have limits. Anyway, I’d love to see an episode about this and if you don’t do it I’ll still watch all your episodes.
It comes from that little horned and tailed guy sitting on your shoulder.
Dear Marina (and fellow students)
I have a quick technical question. When I click on “Recess” it redirects me to You Tube and the “Girl Fight” video. Much though I support Marina in her quarrel with her sis I’d like to watch Recess. Any advice?
Many thanks, Quiggles
umm … dude … you just posted on this lesson …?
The blog/post works; not the video. Thanks
well… They’re both the same video….just another name
Thanks so much.
Quiggles, sorry.. the recess video is actually not a lesson.. it’s class recess!
I just took a break class today…. I’ll have a new lesson probably later today.
You are so sweet. Thanks.
You noticed that too. Yea she looked very playful.
there’s a tease for the feet fetishers at 0:25
and a quicer tease for the rest of us at 0:47
(got some fries to go with that shake?)
Jinx! Owe me a coke!
I wanna know why you say “whatever floats your goat”
I am one of your biggest female fans, I promice! <3
have people thrown goats in the lake or what?
Please investigate this for me
i thought it’s “whatever floats your boat”?
