This is one of the more informative lessons imo. And I’d have to agree with muggins about caboose. HFW and hotforprofits are a guilty pleasure of mine.
A favorable word to replace ‘ass’ with, conversationally, is
“caboose” or, if you’re not into the whole brevity thing,
“caboodle” as mentioned in a previous response (misspelled with
a ‘k’ and given the wrong context in ‘kit & Kaboodle’).
The arse, or ass, is also referred to as “thing”,
as in “Hey babe, park that thing right here.”
Ok so you have the words, arse and ass, you can use the word rump as you did in your video, butt, bottom, booty, money maker, salt shaker, tail feather, dookie maker (pretty gross, but funny), etc…
Your pretty hot by the way. Aye
Why did you start hot for words?
just because your hot and you can tell us bout words or…?
HI !!! Back with a new computer, Marina! The old one got sick. Actually, in walking from my desk to the sofa with the P.C. in hand, my
cat Munch got in the way & tripped me up. Now, I’m left back!! When is
detention?
My favorite synonym for ass/arse is slang: cutie patootie. Beyond
that, there is butt, backside, bumper, caboose, can (not to be
confused with cans….strange… ?) and that’s just a few.
Good to be connected again! I missed this!

Good Morning Teacher I am new to your class.I have came to know that word automobile refers to any object that moves eg: Elevator, Cars etc. Is the word automobile doesn’t mean cars only? If automobile refers to all the things that move, then why is a rail engine called a locomotive? I did some work teacher(Marina) but i could not find an answer..so I turned to my trusted teacher..please do help me. good bye teacher..
Excuse me, Miss Marina, I have not just one word as a request to clarify da origin of, but several, eh? I understand if you cannot get to dem all, but maybe one or two would be nice.
DA LIST, EH?:
-Hero
-Justice
-Law
-Valor
Thanks for making da great videos, eh? Not only is it educational, but it is funny at times. Tanks for reading dis comment (eventually, eh?)
what is the difference between a burrow and a donky and for my homework marina you have very sweet cheeks or arse or ass which ever you prefer i like your bangin body is there any nudety in your blooper dvd’s
Does any of you fire fox users know how to turn on the function as to when you send a url to someone it shows up in blue so all the receiver has to do is click on the url and not have to copy and paste it to their browser’s search window? I can get it to work in IE7, but not fire fox.
Just e-mails. It works on this site in the comments, but if I send you an e-mail it will not change to where you can click on the url and open it from the email I send to you or one that I receive from someone.
I use FF and I just copy and paste it to my email. I use Gmail on FF and I don’t have any problems. For pictures I open a second window and drag and drop the photo on Gmail. It makes a thumbnail and includes the url. Sorry Im not much help.
I don’t know Alx , unless something in ff is blocking my email protocols from windows live hot mail. I have both hot mail and hotforwords loaded in two separate tabs in case some one answers a comment then all I have to do is click the email tab and see who sent the comment then switch back to hfws.
I’m not sure if i’m understanding you right. i just opened up Firefox, went to File>Send Link (not Send Page) and e-mailed the URL to my yahoo account. The link was active (selectable) when i clicked it, and it went to the correct page.
Miss M. Were you ever going to give a lesson on the origin of the finger as a bad gesture towards some one If so I think I may have messed it up a little for you. If not how about a lesson and its origins on the “finger” and other hand gestures from other countries as a bad sign to give someone.
Thanks Mike
Thats an old hacker tool. Most hackers today are using zombie computers. Schools and Universities where the best because the admins didn’t have a clue on how to secure a network. They where a good choice to use because they usually had a fast connection like a T-1 or OC-12. Windows 95 and 98 are very easy to make into zombies. Vista came out with a method to stop that but they took the route and made the user responsible for every piece of code to be installed. See apple ad: Vista Security
Apple solved the problem by asking you only once for permission on software that is not pre-approved with apple. Im still finding computer systems that are still using Win95,98, and DOS 3.1. They are usually not connected to the internet just the local network so they are relatively safe from hackers.
Anyone know why the video won’t load on this site, only that annoying swirling in the middle. I have to go to you tube to view, then log in again to vote. HELP !!

Wow, I really liked Paris Hilton’s response to the political campaign ad featuring Brittany, Obama and her…. I think you could do an even better… How about words around politics today *Pandering *Lies *Politicians *Gaff *Spin *elitist *hope. I really love smart and funny…. Perhaps you want to run for president too, although I think you are smarter and not likely to have the White house painted PINK! Here is some smart commentary and the Paris ad that I am referring to: http://blogs.tnr.com/tnr/blogs/environmentandenergy/archive/2008/08/05/fact-checking-paris-hilton-on-drilling.aspx
The Smart commentary was from Bradford Plumer (The Vine -TNR). I know very little about Paris as I don’t follow it… I DO follow stuff (like our US politics) that could, and has changed my world… I am also a student of marketing and think that it was great to Paris to respond…. It was fun and compelling, alot like HFW is fun and compelling. (I bet you cannot watch just HALF of the Paris ad in the same way you cannot watch just half of a HFW video. You want the WHOLE story! My suggestion is that perhaps Marina would like to play in this ‘political’ area too. Marina is “great with words” as is Obama.
Obama is great with words? He speaks in empty double talk. The Ad was funny but make no mistake, the only thing Paris had to do with it is reading the lines.
I can enjoy Marina a lot better without all the parlor tricks (politics).
We’re stuck bad enough having to choose between BO and JMcC.

Guess again! You know those websites that say install this And if you click no they come back. That’s what I did. I took the window up to the tab so I could quickly press x then close the tab. It didn’t work so I pressed download and closed the tab. As I am so used to opening everything I download as soon as it arrives I forgot myself and pressed open. I was up till 2am doing scans!
Will not do that again!
AVG should prevent that from happening again.
You’ll get a warning when you attempt to enter

Although the term “hacker” has taken on negative connotations, it was once a flattering label reserved for those who could appreciate, operate and program computers. References to hackers and hacking in the computer culture are thought to date from the 1960’s.
As noted in the third edition of The New Hacker’s Dictionary (M.I.T. Press, 1996), Eric S. Raymond’s compilation of computer-related jargon, a hacker is “a person who enjoys exploring the details of programmable systems and how to stretch their capabilities, as opposed to most users, who prefer to learn only the minimum necessary.” The text also notes the original definition of the word: “someone who makes furniture with an ax.”
Steve Jobs (Apple) and Bill Gate (MS) where called hackers back in the 70’s. So hacking or sometimes called White Hat Hacking.
Over the years, the term “hacker” came to be used to refer to people who used their knowledge of computers to break into other people’s systems to steal data and passwords and wreak havoc. This became Black Hat Hacking.
Old-time hackers who do not condone such behavior refer to these intruders as crackers, but that usage has not gained wide recognition.
This is due mostly from the media not getting their facts straight and improperly using hacker instead of cracker in their articles.
WHY???……Do these posts turn pink

I know the company only puts M on their candy now. It stands for Mars Company. I don’t remember what the other M stood for unless is was Mars and Mars, like two brothers owning the company.
Cheek and cheeks.
Is dancing cheek to cheek a stingy (tight ass) solo act or just some fun doing the bump?
Is rump singular?
Just some grab ass questions.
A peach is also used for a (normally appropriately shaped ) butt….. as in the Stranglers’ song…..”Standing on the beach-es , looking at the peach-es……..”
It’s clear that the Brits are more frank than the Yanks : they call a ARSE a ARSE. This ARSE is Pangermanic.
In French LE CUL is LE CUL and the same root is used in all other “Latin” languages.
But what about the panslavic word for ARSE ? In Russian ZHOPA but in Polish DUPA ???
I Never say arse nor do I associate with anyone that does If speaking about one’s derriere, I use tush or tushy. “Ass” if I’m in the mood, but mostly if talking about behaviors “you were acting like an ass”, “dumbass”…etc.
A lot of rich folks & a high % of them English, live in the municipality of “Oak Bay”… when people from other parts of the city think of “Oak Bay” we think of it as a community of snobs, (maybe not justifiably) where I’m sure they call the rest of the city folks a bunch of arses.
Ironicly my wife is from Oak Bay, she calls me an ass, so she’s alright.

Hello Marina this is my first time posting on your website, I just subscribed today. For the Homework, other words for your rump are butt, tush, caboose, and um.. rear, thats all I got right now.
WORD REQUEST: The word croak, like a frog croaks, but it’s often used to refer to someone dying, why? Help me out Marina!
LOL, I was still in bed sleeping. Thanks for your help. I hope all of us take some time to welcome new students to the class. When I was little my mom moved around a lot. I was always picked on as a new student.
Yeah, fanny isn’t arse in England either. Fanny, as arse, is another American English thing. It sounds really weird when an American male refers to his “fanny” – dude – if you ever come to England don’t say that
Drifting is a lot of fun! I like using my side widows as new front windshields. Who would ever think you can use throttle for steering your car around a corner?
This isn’t the same as full scale drifting but I found it less expensive an d much more of a challenge. Here some YT videos to show you what its like. Sorry I don’t have a videos of my R/C car.
Yea good one. *hic hope *hic Marina picks *hic your word * hic. Sounds like it could have an interesting origin. Did you know hiccups where caused by elves?
Ok Teach. Next time you get the hiccups you need to turn on your camera. I would love to see you hiccuping.
What about junk in the trunk. budonkidonk.
Look at that swing on her back porch. I would like to take that apart and see how many screws I could get out of it!

What is the origin of the phrase “Tisk Tisk”. I hear many people use it but when I ask them for the definition they can’t seem to explain it to me. It’s wierd how they still know when to use it.
It’s a shotgun, one word, because it shoots ’shot’ (little pellets) instead of a solid bullet projectile. I could answer the rest of your question but I will see if Marina wants to do it.
Hmmmm,Marina,what was that little sparkle in Yer eyes during this vid? Quite fetching.
Has “tickle” been requested yet,I’m tired and don’t wanna check the list.
“Arse/ass” reminded Me of this sweet little Native American lady I dated/lived-with some years ago,one soft touch or tickle on Her upper buttcrack would make Her jump right outa Her skin! LOL,nuthin,and I mean *nuthin* will get Me goin like a good reaction to My actions!!
what about Gastronomy ?

Other words for you rear end? Booty, butt, caboose, money maker, etc.
Hey Marina,
Is it true that the term ‘Redneck’ comes from the coal mining towns in West Virginia? And how did it come to describe hill billies today. Oops, and ‘Hill billies’ how did that become to be derogatory and slanderous term?
There is a big mistake in your video. You have to fix it.
Canadians don’t use the word arse. They call it ass. You should know it as our teacher. Don’t be fooled by a British jag ass.
It’s ok phrasing to say “we use arse all the time.”
I use MY arse all the time–for sitting, for dancing, and to break an unexpected fall.
Some people use their arse to be mean (i.e., hard ass), silly (i.e., dumb ass), or to be incompetent (i.e., half-assed). However, neither of these options are requirements, since I often use my arse to be intelligent (i.e, smart ass). Despite all the benefits that my ass gives me, I am ironically always “working my ass off.” Apparently, my ability to regenerate said ass is tremendous, since I always seem to have enough ass left the next day to keep working
Well when a bunch of founders were sitting around trying what to call their new country. One of them said “Lets put some letters in a hat and pull them out till we get something we like.”
They did just that. Here’s how it went:
Guy #1 reaches in pulls out (or as they say oot) a letter “C…eh”
Guy #2 reaches in pulls out a letter “N…eh”
Guy #3 reaches in pulls out a letter “D…eh”
Stupid joke I know, but my band teacher told me this one and he’s from Canada and he kinda liked it.
My God, I think this thing is trying to hijack my passwords hotmail just said I have tried to sign in too much, Marina can you please lock my account or change my password and I will email you when I get this sorted, Thanks
A fresh install, good! AVG, good!
Other cool tools to have would be
programs like RegistryFix, Click & Gone,
Auslogic’s Power Boost, DriverMax,
WindowsInABox and suchlike.
When installing Veoh, Limewire,
and others, be sure NOT to load them
at startup! This way they’ll load
and unload without leaving a resident
program in memory.
Create restore points before installs.
Run RegistryFix after installs, you’ll
see why when you run it.
After you load your other programs,
run PowerBoost to optimize everything.
Keep track of your cookies, or they’ll
end up keeping track of you!
You should be able to Google most
of these and find the free ones.
For the rest, search Mininova for
them by name, and you’ll find
working versions
If all that doesn’t work.. try this. (And I am completely serious..) If you want to do creative stuff.. it is designed for it.. plus there has not been one example of spyware or a virus EVER on these things. Do you really need me to change your password? It can’t inflict any damage on my website.
No thanks Marina I think it is starting to clear now
And the antivirus was……
AVG!!!
Will spend the rest of tomorrow now deleting the other 7 anti-viruses I installed.
I would get a mac but they are so expensive! I will be starting college soon, also I will be learning to drive in about 7 months.. Mind you though I can probably…
I just did a scan on my mac using MacScan 2.0. Nothing harmful found. Just a few google cookies that I want on my computer anyways. Im happy.
James you should consider going back to installing XP. Many of my friends are advising their friends that Vista is just too buggy right now to be of any use to anyone. MS is already working on a new OS to replace Vista. Who are my friends that I’m referring to? Well they work in Redmond. That should tell you something.
Thanks for the replies everybody. This has been more “lets help James with his virus” than a discussion about asses hmm actually I think I think I would rather talk about my virus
If you were running 7 anti viruses they were probably conflicting with each other. Plus your cache might be causing some of the problem. Clear it out and use only one anti virus. AVG is good. If you go to My Member Center at MSN you might be able to down load Mcafee products for free. Sometimes they give them away for a year for trial purposes. I went with Windows Live One Care. It covers up to three computers for the price. It has everything from anti virus, firewall, malware, anti spyware, Good luck James.
Mike
james, first of all try changing back to xp, I have vista to but i like xp way more.
If you considder buying a mac someday, I can teach you how to install mac os x leopard on to a pc( tell me your pc specs first or else it might not work). It’s totaly safe, you won’t loose any data, and you’ll still be able to use vista if you want, just as easily af if you would before.
Well Hello Marina
The word I am wondering about is Yokel- which of course happens to be my user name. It’s a bit goofy and beautiful at the same time don’t you think? I also noticed that you haven’t one single “Y” word yet, and I think this one is good start! I’m glad to have stumbled onto this sight- I’ve learned much whilst sipping a single glass of wine..
-Scott
I don’t know for sure but I believe that yokel was just a made up word to rhyme with ‘local’ describing people who were native to an area, usually in a lower class area.
A word comes to mind while watching this video. ‘Eloquent’
Marina, you have the ability of making the most profound words in the English language to sound as if they where spoken by Kings and Queens of deep rooted royalty.
That reminds me. I have a friend that suffers fro glutous minumous. aka diminished glutes. If you watch ‘King of the Hill’ Hank suffers from the same thing.
donkeys have a stubborn streak, right?…well, if you don’t get moving, like a donkey doesn’t when it’s being stubborn (and inordinately stupid), that’d make you an ass, right?
Here is an old joke that I heard awhile back, kind of long-
A farmer was on his cart taking his produce to the market.
The ass that was pulling the cart stopped walking and sat down.
The farmer yelled at the ass and it wouldn’t get up or move anymore.
The ass just kept twitching its ears and swishing its tail like it didn’t hear a thing the farmer was yelling.
Along came an older man, he too was on his way to the market.
The older man asked the farmer if he would give him a ride to the market.
The farmer said that he would happily give him a ride if he could get the ass up and moving.
The older man grabbed a large rock from the side of the road and hit the ass very hard on the side of its head and then grabbed one of its ears and whispered into it.
The ass jumped up and started running down the road as the older man jumped into the cart.
The farmer could barely hold the reins as the older man yelled to him, “The ass will listen to you if you get its attention first”.
If you mean it has got a bit

Dear Marina, For your homework: Caboose, behind, rear. rear end. rump, seat, tookus, posterior, back end, saddlebags, cellulite carrier, derriere, fanny, hind, nether-region, and ass. (BTW, this is really low homework.) It’s also used with adjectives, such as smart-ass, cheap-ass, tired-ass, herpes-ass and others. What a difficult subject you chose! But your caboose is so nice to look at!
I’ve been a subscriber for over a month, now. You’ve quickly become part of my Internet habits. Without you, I’d likely go back to watching NFL football! Instead of low homework, my three favorite moments were: (1) When you screamed and hid under the bedcovers in your “Coulrophobic” video. (I hope you’re not like than on your wedding night!) (2) In your “Piggyback” video, you offered to let me give you piggyback rides and even pay me two dollars for them. (I doubt if I would walk very fast!) (3) When you wore a strapless dress in your “Fascinate” video. (And you looked nice today in a proper black high-collar dress and colorful bead necklace. I hope you will continue your Internet work for many years. Don’t go away! I was the third one to rate your video five stars!

I know a lot of asses, but I don’t want to mention them here. So for the homework, rump, posterior, buttocks, anus, tail, butt, derriere, bottom, fanny, moon.
I watched a documentary about the difference but could not find any reference to it so this is what I found at Mule Barn.
—-
Here are the definitions according to the Mule Barn:
* Mule: A domesticated, hybrid animal that results from crossing a mare (female horse) and a jack (male donkey).
* Donkey: A domesticated ass.
Which, of course, begs the question “What is an ass?” Thankfully, Mule Barn also provides a definition of this particular animal.
* Ass: A four-footed, hoofed mammal related to the horse, but smaller, with longer ears and a shorter mane, shorter hair on the tail, and a dark stripe along the back.
So, it seems the aforementioned jackass is simply a male ass. The main difference between the jackass and the donkey is their domestication — the ass is wild; the donkey is domesticated.
But what about the burro? Turns out that the burro is a small donkey that is often used as a pack animal because it is particularly sure-footed.

Now we know my proper name, let me show you a photo of me on one of my not so great days at work.. My boss is such a jackass that day. I only weighed about 98 pounds.

A favorable word to replace ‘ass’ with, conversationally, is
“caboose” or, if you’re not into the whole brevity thing,
“caboodle” as mentioned in a previous response (misspelled with
a ‘k’ and given the wrong context in ‘kit & Kaboodle’).
The arse, or ass, is also referred to as “thing”,
as in “Hey babe, park that thing right here.”
Ok so you have the words, arse and ass, you can use the word rump as you did in your video, butt, bottom, booty, money maker, salt shaker, tail feather, dookie maker (pretty gross, but funny), etc…
Your pretty hot by the way. Aye
Why did you start hot for words?
just because your hot and you can tell us bout words or…?

I am new to your class.I have came to know that word automobile refers to any object that moves eg: Elevator, Cars etc. Is the word automobile doesn’t mean cars only? If automobile refers to all the things that move, then why is a rail engine called a locomotive? I did some work teacher(Marina) but i could not find an answer..so I turned to my trusted teacher..please do help me. good bye teacher..
Hi Marina, here’s a thought, why do people say dry as a bone and not dry as a desert for example?
Hi Marina,
Other words for your Arse, booty, buns, toush, bum, the list is endless.
True (RE: endless). Perhaps the old poem blathering on about
counting the ways had this in mind (Deviants all !! lol!).
Homework: booty, butt, buttocks, gluteus maximus, behind, bottom, breech, buns, butt, derriere, fanny, fundament, haunches, heinie, keister, nates, podex, posterior, rear, rump, seat, and steatopygia.
Wanting to see more of yours, Marina,
Shawn Norris

Does any of you fire fox users know how to turn on the function as to when you send a url to someone it shows up in blue so all the receiver has to do is click on the url and not have to copy and paste it to their browser’s search window? I can get it to work in IE7, but not fire fox.
you mean, like in e-mails or messengers?
Just e-mails. It works on this site in the comments, but if I send you an e-mail it will not change to where you can click on the url and open it from the email I send to you or one that I receive from someone.
I use FF and I just copy and paste it to my email. I use Gmail on FF and I don’t have any problems. For pictures I open a second window and drag and drop the photo on Gmail. It makes a thumbnail and includes the url. Sorry Im not much help.
Remember the last email I sent you and the url was not clickable. It should have been in blue so you could click on it and open it from your email.Like this http://www.hotforwords.com/2008/08/05/arse-ass/#comment-47442
I can do that in IE7 but not ff.
but what does it have to do with firefox? ff is just a browser, not an e-mail program?
I don’t know Alx , unless something in ff is blocking my email protocols from windows live hot mail. I have both hot mail and hotforwords loaded in two separate tabs in case some one answers a comment then all I have to do is click the email tab and see who sent the comment then switch back to hfws.
does that only happen with hotmail? did you try gmail or any other webmail?
Just Hot mail when I am signed into FF. When I just sign into hot mail by it self the urls works fine.
get a gmail account.
I believe I will. Thanks a lot for all the help Alx.
I’m not sure if i’m understanding you right. i just opened up Firefox, went to File>Send Link (not Send Page) and e-mailed the URL to my yahoo account. The link was active (selectable) when i clicked it, and it went to the correct page.
maybe your install was faulty…
annudder
I just tried the same thing and it worked with no problem. Thanks Tom for the help.
Miss M. Were you ever going to give a lesson on the origin of the finger as a bad gesture towards some one
If so I think I may have messed it up a little for you. If not how about a lesson and its origins on the “finger” and other hand gestures from other countries as a bad sign to give someone.
Thanks Mike
Hey Marina
What is a ” PIG-HEADED ” person?
Marina. I have a request… ZOMBIE?
Don’t you want to know about
a zombie computer?
Found on Wikipedia – LOL!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zombie_computer
Mel, you’re CRUEL!
Thats an old hacker tool. Most hackers today are using zombie computers. Schools and Universities where the best because the admins didn’t have a clue on how to secure a network. They where a good choice to use because they usually had a fast connection like a T-1 or OC-12. Windows 95 and 98 are very easy to make into zombies. Vista came out with a method to stop that but they took the route and made the user responsible for every piece of code to be installed. See apple ad: Vista Security
Apple solved the problem by asking you only once for permission on software that is not pre-approved with apple. Im still finding computer systems that are still using Win95,98, and DOS 3.1. They are usually not connected to the internet just the local network so they are relatively safe from hackers.
Why do Brits add an “R” to the long “A”, like in the word “America”? To me it sounds like “Armericar”. Arse and Ass seem to follow that pattern.
Booty, Rump, & Tush: Is there any explanations for these? (especially booty, why booty?)
Anyone know why the video won’t load on this site, only that annoying swirling in the middle. I have to go to you tube to view, then log in again to vote. HELP !!

Hi this is GERONIMO from the U.S.A. Where did Donkey come from?
Wow, I really liked Paris Hilton’s response to the political campaign ad featuring Brittany, Obama and her…. I think you could do an even better… How about words around politics today *Pandering *Lies *Politicians *Gaff *Spin *elitist *hope. I really love smart and funny…. Perhaps you want to run for president too, although I think you are smarter and not likely to have the White house painted PINK! Here is some smart commentary and the Paris ad that I am referring to: http://blogs.tnr.com/tnr/blogs/environmentandenergy/archive/2008/08/05/fact-checking-paris-hilton-on-drilling.aspx
“smart” commentary???
From Paris Hilton?
Yeah, right!
Ride the wave, dude
don’t mind the rocks….
The Smart commentary was from Bradford Plumer (The Vine -TNR). I know very little about Paris as I don’t follow it… I DO follow stuff (like our US politics) that could, and has changed my world… I am also a student of marketing and think that it was great to Paris to respond…. It was fun and compelling, alot like HFW is fun and compelling. (I bet you cannot watch just HALF of the Paris ad in the same way you cannot watch just half of a HFW video. You want the WHOLE story! My suggestion is that perhaps Marina would like to play in this ‘political’ area too. Marina is “great with words” as is Obama.
Obama is great with words? He speaks in empty double talk. The Ad was funny but make no mistake, the only thing Paris had to do with it is reading the lines.
I can enjoy Marina a lot better without all the parlor tricks (politics).
We’re stuck bad enough having to choose between BO and JMcC.

It wasn’t that I was trying to download
You were downloading warez.. and you discovered first hand the dangers of downloading warez, right?
Guess again! You know those websites that say install this
And if you click no they come back. That’s what I did. I took the window up to the tab so I could quickly press x then close the tab. It didn’t work so I pressed download and closed the tab. As I am so used to opening everything I download as soon as it arrives I forgot myself and pressed open. I was up till 2am doing scans!
Will not do that again!
AVG should prevent that from happening again.
You’ll get a warning when you attempt to enter
a site trying to hack you. Bypass at your own risk!
Zango is another nasty one to avoid altogether!
What in the world is warez? Is it like some cracker website that takes over your computer or something? I don’t know.
Marina, what’s the difference between a hacker and a cracker?
-Shawn Norris
Young grasshopper is learning!
Shawn,
Warez it a term used for pirated software.
–
Although the term “hacker” has taken on negative connotations, it was once a flattering label reserved for those who could appreciate, operate and program computers. References to hackers and hacking in the computer culture are thought to date from the 1960’s.
As noted in the third edition of The New Hacker’s Dictionary (M.I.T. Press, 1996), Eric S. Raymond’s compilation of computer-related jargon, a hacker is “a person who enjoys exploring the details of programmable systems and how to stretch their capabilities, as opposed to most users, who prefer to learn only the minimum necessary.” The text also notes the original definition of the word: “someone who makes furniture with an ax.”
Steve Jobs (Apple) and Bill Gate (MS) where called hackers back in the 70’s. So hacking or sometimes called White Hat Hacking.
Over the years, the term “hacker” came to be used to refer to people who used their knowledge of computers to break into other people’s systems to steal data and passwords and wreak havoc. This became Black Hat Hacking.
Old-time hackers who do not condone such behavior refer to these intruders as crackers, but that usage has not gained wide recognition.
This is due mostly from the media not getting their facts straight and improperly using hacker instead of cracker in their articles.

James, if you’re using McAfee anti-virus, are you also using McAfee SiteAdvisor? It warns you before you interact with a dangerous Web site, to keep you safe from spyware, spam, viruses and online scams.
I also use Firetrust Sitehound for the same purpose.

Thank Gawd I own a Mac and I don’t have to deal with this crap…
well, jack … there are viruses and trojans for mac, though not in the wild. not yet. let’s assume millions of people switch to macs, what do you think is gonna happen? there’ll be thousands of viruses for macs out there.
I use Norton 360 and it lets me know before I open anything if there’s a virus inside the file/program. It’s not free but it seems worth it to me.

Thanks for the link. I think I have one; What do M&M’s stand for, if anything??
I know the company only puts M on their candy now. It stands for Mars Company. I don’t remember what the other M stood for unless is was Mars and Mars, like two brothers owning the company.
Marina,
I would rather discuss your physiognomy.
i want to know the origin of: make out
Cheek and cheeks.


Is dancing cheek to cheek a stingy (tight ass) solo act or just some fun doing the bump?
Is rump singular?
Just some grab ass questions.

Huh?
Gemini?

absurd to bring it here..
not to be a pervert but what about the word : pornography?
Pornia is the greek word for fornication and the graph is the word for image. I.E PhotoGRAPHY.
Porne is the Greek word for prostitute. The two Greek words must be related.
Essentially, porn actors are prostitutes because they are paid for sex.
I’ve heard that porn- means “harlet” (also prostitute) and graphy means “letter”. So pornography translates into “harlet letter”, or so I heard.
Porn does not mean harlot. The root word is Pornia and means Fornication. Fornication means any sex outside of marriage.
A peach is also used for a (normally appropriately shaped ) butt….. as in the Stranglers’ song…..”Standing on the beach-es , looking at the peach-es……..”
can you describe the word onomatopoeia please
I would be happy to. It starts with an ‘O’ ends with an ‘A’ has six syllables.
Don’t I make a great self appointed teachers assistant?
I have a question Marina. Who’s arse is that wearing the cut off jeans?
Good question, we need to get to the bottom of this asap.

Take no offense. Im just helping you dig your grave.
Your key board slipped while you were typing. That’s it you couldn’t help it. Send her a url of a picture of a dozen Roses.
It’s clear that the Brits are more frank than the Yanks : they call a ARSE a ARSE. This ARSE is Pangermanic.
In French LE CUL is LE CUL and the same root is used in all other “Latin” languages.
But what about the panslavic word for ARSE ? In Russian ZHOPA but in Polish DUPA ???

Hey Billy! Do they say arse or ass in your part of the woods?
I Never say arse nor do I associate with anyone that does
If speaking about one’s derriere, I use tush or tushy. “Ass” if I’m in the mood, but mostly if talking about behaviors “you were acting like an ass”, “dumbass”…etc.
A lot of rich folks & a high % of them English, live in the municipality of “Oak Bay”… when people from other parts of the city think of “Oak Bay” we think of it as a community of snobs, (maybe not justifiably) where I’m sure they call the rest of the city folks a bunch of arses.
Ironicly my wife is from Oak Bay, she calls me an ass, so she’s alright.

The word is dinkum
Even MS Word underlines it
Would anybody outside Australia use a phrase like “fair dinkum”?
I think the word ‘dinkum’ came from England and was street talk around Charles Dicken’s time. It’s use in England has died off.
There are a lot of words like that. They originated in England, came to Australia and then the use of the words or phrases disappeared in England.
Crickey. Good enough to me. Australia is still and English speaking country.

–adjective
1. (sometimes initial capital letter) resembling or befitting Don Quixote.
2. extravagantly chivalrous or romantic; visionary, impractical, or impracticable.
Someone asked about this word and wanted an definition.
just In case anyone misunderstood ?
Why would it be pronounced [kwik-sot-ik] when his name is pronounced (KEE OH TEE)
The word is quixotic. not Don Quixote but to act as poetic and romantic.
I know what it means, and have always heard people say KEE OH TIC.
So, burst became bust and barse became bass, that means that a chest up statue is a burst and a species of fish is barse?

Hello Marina this is my first time posting on your website, I just subscribed today. For the Homework, other words for your rump are butt, tush, caboose, and um.. rear, thats all I got right now.
WORD REQUEST: The word croak, like a frog croaks, but it’s often used to refer to someone dying, why? Help me out Marina!
Hello and welcome ezdofhawaii. Welcome to the sight. It’s a lot of fun here.
Ha! beat you to it Capt Jack.
LOL, I was still in bed sleeping.
Thanks for your help. I hope all of us take some time to welcome new students to the class. When I was little my mom moved around a lot. I was always picked on as a new student.
I was with CaptainJack’s mom last night. She didn’t seem to move around that much.
Thanks for Welcoming me guys. Does Marina ever comment herself on here?
Yes but it is not too often. Just look for the pink boxes.
I know its a weird request but how did the word incest orginate
INCEST is Latin INCESTUS from IN + CASTUS “not chaste”.
CASTUS Latin gave in English CHASTITY.
There is an automatical alternance A/E.
That doesn’t explain how it tuned out to mean having sexual relations with one’s relations.
In oz , fanny is not a reference to someones backside, quite the opposite.
Yeah, fanny isn’t arse in England either. Fanny, as arse, is another American English thing. It sounds really weird when an American male refers to his “fanny” – dude – if you ever come to England don’t say that
Nick
Fanny is a bottom…………….. a front bottom
I would question a dude that uses the term fanny here too.
Their front side?
Hey Marina,
Just wondering where the word Drift comes from… meaning to slide a car sideways. Good work with your lessons… i’m learning alot!

It is alot of fun… I do it every weekend lol >>> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gu3RptpN-vc
I’d like to know where the word “Drift” came from though
This isn’t the same as full scale drifting but I found it less expensive an d much more of a challenge. Here some YT videos to show you what its like. Sorry I don’t have a videos of my R/C car.

hello hot for words! i was wondering about the word, hiccup! why they are called hiccups?
man that is a good one
Probably an onomatopoeia word.
Yea good one. *hic hope *hic Marina picks *hic your word * hic. Sounds like it could have an interesting origin. Did you know hiccups where caused by elves?
Ok Teach. Next time you get the hiccups you need to turn on your camera. I would love to see you hiccuping.
me too
A word that women use to describe my ass?
GORGEOUS!
…or was it “half baked” buns?
No matter, when settled into the Ferrari’s driver seat, it’s WONDERFUL!

what is the origin of Wedgie
do you mean Melvin?
somting like dat
A wedge is a tool used to separate two objects.(arse cheeks)
What is the origin of the phrase “Tisk Tisk”. I hear many people use it but when I ask them for the definition they can’t seem to explain it to me. It’s wierd how they still know when to use it.
onomatopoeia word I bet.
What about Shot gun? Like shot gun marriage or when you call front seat to a car “I got shot gun”. Hope to see this video =)
Thanks
Jeremy
It’s a shotgun, one word, because it shoots ’shot’ (little pellets) instead of a solid bullet projectile. I could answer the rest of your question but I will see if Marina wants to do it.
Where does the word “ripped” come from and why is it used to describe a muscular person?
or when you are really stoned. I’m RIPPED!
um where did the word “disheveled” come from?
Hmmmm,Marina,what was that little sparkle in Yer eyes during this vid? Quite fetching.
Has “tickle” been requested yet,I’m tired and don’t wanna check the list.
“Arse/ass” reminded Me of this sweet little Native American lady I dated/lived-with some years ago,one soft touch or tickle on Her upper buttcrack would make Her jump right outa Her skin! LOL,nuthin,and I mean *nuthin* will get Me goin like a good reaction to My actions!!
stratuiteh Marina!
what about Gastronomy ?
where did this word originate?
IF we were to use gastronomical in a sentence, to say, like ” this meal was a gastronomical genius, a true pleasure for the taste buds… ” ?? ( kind of like eating good borscht )
Schto? what do you think?
dosvidania!
A rephrasing of an old retort I came up with one day while writing an article was:
“He wouldn’t know his fundament from an excavation.”
I suppose that’s an easy one to trace back to the original saying, no?

I’ll add in:

-Booty
-Groove-thing (according to the song that says “Shake your groove-thing, Shake your groove-thing, Baby, yah yah”
In case anyone doubts you, I will back up your list. That way, nobody will think you pulled it out of your …
moneymaker?
You also forgot gluteus maximus, and sweet cheeks.
Marina, a better question would be w hy do the British like warm beer and cars with crappy electrical systems?
Other words for you rear end? Booty, butt, caboose, money maker, etc.
Off topic, but you should get a regular segment on O’Reilly. You rock on tv!

Hey Marina,
Is it true that the term ‘Redneck’ comes from the coal mining towns in West Virginia? And how did it come to describe hill billies today. Oops, and ‘Hill billies’ how did that become to be derogatory and slanderous term?
I found this on redneck , but it doesn’t really help.
That is so awesome. Very funny. If you looked at that video and only liked the music..you might be a redneck.
There is a big mistake in your video. You have to fix it.
Canadians don’t use the word arse. They call it ass. You should know it as our teacher. Don’t be fooled by a British jag ass.
I can’t agree with that at all, hamid6724, down in the Maritimes, at least, we use arse all the time.
Maybe that’s poor phrasing. We use the word ‘arse’ all the time.
Better…
-Jor
It’s ok phrasing to say “we use arse all the time.”
I use MY arse all the time–for sitting, for dancing, and to break an unexpected fall.
Some people use their arse to be mean (i.e., hard ass), silly (i.e., dumb ass), or to be incompetent (i.e., half-assed). However, neither of these options are requirements, since I often use my arse to be intelligent (i.e, smart ass). Despite all the benefits that my ass gives me, I am ironically always “working my ass off.” Apparently, my ability to regenerate said ass is tremendous, since I always seem to have enough ass left the next day to keep working
Im f***ing Canadian and use ass
Some people call me a smart ass and I come back with “It’s better than being a dumb ass!”
hamid6724, there are parts of Canada where arse is used… thanks for the heads up though! Forced me to recheck my info!
Hey, how did Canada get its name anyway?
Well when a bunch of founders were sitting around trying what to call their new country. One of them said “Lets put some letters in a hat and pull them out till we get something we like.”
They did just that. Here’s how it went:
Guy #1 reaches in pulls out (or as they say oot) a letter “C…eh”
Guy #2 reaches in pulls out a letter “N…eh”
Guy #3 reaches in pulls out a letter “D…eh”
Stupid joke I know, but my band teacher told me this one and he’s from Canada and he kinda liked it.
to answer smokey bear’s question
Canada comes from Kanata or somting ( not da weapon)
it means village
There are parts of America that use the word arse too. We use it as a slang word. But we use it.
I would be interesting in BillyB’s opinion on the use of arse.

dadblastitall…”posterior”…
i’ll make an arse of myself yet…
(don’t say it unless you say it with love, y’all)…
poontang? i dunno ’bout that…..
always thought that meant the
“kit AND the caboodle”!
you are (collective *gasp*) likely correct…
“that is mighty fine poon,” though, i would think, could be used when viewing a woman from any direction…but most often refers to her genital region…
not that i would or even think that it should be used at all…

Do you have a safe restore point???
I re-installed vista 2 days ago!
A fresh install, good! AVG, good!
Other cool tools to have would be
programs like RegistryFix, Click & Gone,
Auslogic’s Power Boost, DriverMax,
WindowsInABox and suchlike.
When installing Veoh, Limewire,
and others, be sure NOT to load them
at startup! This way they’ll load
and unload without leaving a resident
program in memory.
Create restore points before installs.
Run RegistryFix after installs, you’ll
see why when you run it.
After you load your other programs,
run PowerBoost to optimize everything.
Keep track of your cookies, or they’ll
end up keeping track of you!
You should be able to Google most
of these and find the free ones.
For the rest, search Mininova for
them by name, and you’ll find
working versions

good luck!
If all that doesn’t work.. try this. (And I am completely serious..) If you want to do creative stuff.. it is designed for it.. plus there has not been one example of spyware or a virus EVER on these things. Do you really need me to change your password? It can’t inflict any damage on my website.
No thanks Marina I think it is starting to clear now
And the antivirus was……
AVG!!!
Will spend the rest of tomorrow now deleting the other 7 anti-viruses I installed.
I would get a mac but they are so expensive! I will be starting college soon, also I will be learning to drive in about 7 months.. Mind you though I can probably…
Another alternative. Runs on pretty much anything, lets you do pretty much everything. SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper. And NO viruses.
I just did a scan on my mac using MacScan 2.0. Nothing harmful found. Just a few google cookies that I want on my computer anyways. Im happy.
James you should consider going back to installing XP. Many of my friends are advising their friends that Vista is just too buggy right now to be of any use to anyone. MS is already working on a new OS to replace Vista. Who are my friends that I’m referring to? Well they work in Redmond. That should tell you something.
umm, dude, you should run all those programs in safe mode.
Thanks for the replies everybody. This has been more “lets help James with his virus” than a discussion about asses
hmm actually I think I think I would rather talk about my virus
trojans ain’t viruses.
P
As long as your virus isn’t a std
try this http://www.avast.com/
along with xp64 bit
If you were running 7 anti viruses they were probably conflicting with each other. Plus your cache might be causing some of the problem. Clear it out and use only one anti virus. AVG is good. If you go to My Member Center at MSN you might be able to down load Mcafee products for free. Sometimes they give them away for a year for trial purposes. I went with Windows Live One Care. It covers up to three computers for the price. It has everything from anti virus, firewall, malware, anti spyware, Good luck James.
Mike
james, first of all try changing back to xp, I have vista to but i like xp way more.
If you considder buying a mac someday, I can teach you how to install mac os x leopard on to a pc( tell me your pc specs first or else it might not work). It’s totaly safe, you won’t loose any data, and you’ll still be able to use vista if you want, just as easily af if you would before.
Installing mac on a pc sounds good
This is all the info I can find/think of
Vista premium
Intel Pentium Dual core t2330@1.60ghz
2gb ram
AVG seems to have done well. But when i booted up I had a pink screen. It went away when i ctrl alt deleted it though
you got msn or something? if so pass me your adress trough youtube pm.
Sent it to you
I don’t know. There’s something about it. I’m still an ass man!

Marina, you’re great as usual!
Only have one small complaint, one that I’d actually look over had I not wanted to have something to write about.
You said that in Swedish it is Arsle, which is correct word, however you did not prenounce it even remotly correct
(yesss evil me for saying this)
I agree it is mostly understandable that you can’t be able to speak every language but, I needed something to write about hehehehe.
Other Swedish words meaning ass: Arsle (as said), röv, rumpa, bak…

Well Hello Marina
The word I am wondering about is Yokel- which of course happens to be my user name. It’s a bit goofy and beautiful at the same time don’t you think? I also noticed that you haven’t one single “Y” word yet, and I think this one is good start! I’m glad to have stumbled onto this sight- I’ve learned much whilst sipping a single glass of wine..
-Scott
I hope your name isn’t Cleetus!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xmiIsyUywE&feature=related
I don’t know for sure but I believe that yokel was just a made up word to rhyme with ‘local’ describing people who were native to an area, usually in a lower class area.
A word comes to mind while watching this video. ‘Eloquent’
Marina, you have the ability of making the most profound words in the English language to sound as if they where spoken by Kings and Queens of deep rooted royalty.
hmmm…not to be a posterior-puckerupperer, but i agree the vid is well-done..
not sure “arse” & “ass” are “profound,” though…
in fact, i am pretty sure they are “post”-found…
*ducks & runs*…
Confound it all!
Queen Marina, has spoken. She is Queen of Marinaville.
Don’t fall in Love!
she’s a beauty

Hi,
I’ve always wondered why such popular American foods as “hamburger” and “frankfurter” are named after German cities….
Pat
Um… German immigrants?
Glutes!
That reminds me. I have a friend that suffers fro glutous minumous. aka diminished glutes. If you watch ‘King of the Hill’ Hank suffers from the same thing.

Not sure why being an Ass ( Donkey ) is bad, To be compared to.?
Hard working
easy keeper
friendly
cute.
The Democrats use an Ass as their icon?
exactly…suits ‘em…
I guess Republicans use an elephant because it leaves such big piles of sh1t.
donkeys have a stubborn streak, right?…well, if you don’t get moving, like a donkey doesn’t when it’s being stubborn (and inordinately stupid), that’d make you an ass, right?
teleologically, speaking, of course…
Here is an old joke that I heard awhile back, kind of long-
A farmer was on his cart taking his produce to the market.
The ass that was pulling the cart stopped walking and sat down.
The farmer yelled at the ass and it wouldn’t get up or move anymore.
The ass just kept twitching its ears and swishing its tail like it didn’t hear a thing the farmer was yelling.
Along came an older man, he too was on his way to the market.
The older man asked the farmer if he would give him a ride to the market.
The farmer said that he would happily give him a ride if he could get the ass up and moving.
The older man grabbed a large rock from the side of the road and hit the ass very hard on the side of its head and then grabbed one of its ears and whispered into it.
The ass jumped up and started running down the road as the older man jumped into the cart.
The farmer could barely hold the reins as the older man yelled to him, “The ass will listen to you if you get its attention first”.
in other words, it’s zoomorphism…
Free fertilizer.
The Libertarian Party uses a porcupine as their animal.
Look at it here.

Point of record: Canadians say ass as well. Doing otherwise would have jeopardized Canadian national security!

No large marth barse

magic website tricks!
ok… Norton is still doing scan.. hope it will find it!!!!!!
if norton doesn’t find it, try this.
AVG 8 finds malware and adware
that Spybot and adAware miss!
I tested all these monthes ago
and AVG tested best!
Unlike adAware, AVG 8 has
a shield module to prevent
reinfection once a warning
is identified. Where it falls down
is when program “updates”
from Firefox reinstall cookies
as part of a legitimate update.
Often, the update doesn’t even
touch the program files and
just replants the cookies!
jJust some FYI, if you aren’t
already up to speed on this
hm. dunno. spybot in combination with antivir always did the job for me.
Counterspyv2
It seems to be working alx. Macaffee didnt really work. norton was a bit better
we (my computer and I not you) owe you one
Thanks ever so much!!
I run that one too Alx. It does a great job and it’s free also.
Capman, you should also check out BlondebratZ channel on you tube. I’m sure you’ll like it.
If nothing works, try hitman pro, it takes a while to scan and to download all the software it needs to run, but it does it all automaticly.
Dear Marina, For your homework: Caboose, behind, rear. rear end. rump, seat, tookus, posterior, back end, saddlebags, cellulite carrier, derriere, fanny, hind, nether-region, and ass. (BTW, this is really low homework.) It’s also used with adjectives, such as smart-ass, cheap-ass, tired-ass, herpes-ass and others. What a difficult subject you chose! But your caboose is so nice to look at!

I’ve been a subscriber for over a month, now. You’ve quickly become part of my Internet habits. Without you, I’d likely go back to watching NFL football! Instead of low homework, my three favorite moments were: (1) When you screamed and hid under the bedcovers in your “Coulrophobic” video. (I hope you’re not like than on your wedding night!) (2) In your “Piggyback” video, you offered to let me give you piggyback rides and even pay me two dollars for them. (I doubt if I would walk very fast!) (3) When you wore a strapless dress in your “Fascinate” video. (And you looked nice today in a proper black high-collar dress and colorful bead necklace. I hope you will continue your Internet work for many years. Don’t go away! I was the third one to rate your video five stars!
Your dear student, Seesixcm6
Was that an Acai (berry pit) necklace?
Looks lik one, but I’m no expert…
I don’t know. I just liked the way the longest loop curved around…certain formations! :- 0 Marina has been dressing very neat and proper in recent videos. seesixcm6
has anyone else had it? look at the last lesson

My comment… I downloaded a bloddy trojan
Scanning with AVG 8 now.
I’ll let you know…
Last scan at 3:00 am EST

Firefox updated Sidebar and
Yahoo toolbar. Effing tracking

clean scan here.
Remember when I said
“Be careful with that Axe?”
yesterday?
BE CAREFUL!!!
if it’s a trojan, try trojan remover…
one of my colleagues at work was stupid & opened an attachment from “UPS” last week – it was a brand-new trojan on the web, and Symantec didn’t have the fix yet…Trojan Remover found & deleted the bugger in no time.
it’s a free 30-day, fully-functional trial…

almost forgot “can” LOL!
I know a lot of asses, but I don’t want to mention them here. So for the homework, rump, posterior, buttocks, anus, tail, butt, derriere, bottom, fanny, moon.
Are any of them named Jack___?
Is a Jackass the same as a donkey or an ass or how about a burro? .
A jack is a male mule not a donkey
I watched a documentary about the difference but could not find any reference to it so this is what I found at Mule Barn.
—-
Here are the definitions according to the Mule Barn:
* Mule: A domesticated, hybrid animal that results from crossing a mare (female horse) and a jack (male donkey).
* Donkey: A domesticated ass.
Which, of course, begs the question “What is an ass?” Thankfully, Mule Barn also provides a definition of this particular animal.
* Ass: A four-footed, hoofed mammal related to the horse, but smaller, with longer ears and a shorter mane, shorter hair on the tail, and a dark stripe along the back.
So, it seems the aforementioned jackass is simply a male ass. The main difference between the jackass and the donkey is their domestication — the ass is wild; the donkey is domesticated.
But what about the burro? Turns out that the burro is a small donkey that is often used as a pack animal because it is particularly sure-footed.

Now we know my proper name, let me show you a photo of me on one of my not so great days at work.. My boss is such a jackass that day. I only weighed about 98 pounds.
@ Jack, I think your boss overloaded you that day, poor animal.
Tastefully done, by the way!!
Gotta get my fanny in gear.
In America, fanny refers to the buttocks, but in the UK, fanny refers to vagina.
