    I’d like to request the phrase [Basket case]

    • The expression comes from World War I to describe quadreplegics–in the manner that all four appendages were removed and could only be moved around in a “basket”. Naturally, this was an offensive expression. It gradually took on the mental meaning today.

    Two wildly differing females:

    Quote from Marilyn Monroe:

    We are all born sexual creatures, thank God, but it’s a pity so many people despise and crush this natural gift.

    Quote from Meghan McCain:

    To be honest, I don’t feel that I have anything to feel ashamed of. I’ve always embraced my curves and will continue to do so. I’d rather be the size I am than a skinny model fired for being too fat. And once again, a day after writing about my weight, it’s the media that have a problem with my body.

    For years I have struggled to accept the fact {not bolded in original article} that the way I look in a tank top comes off more “sexual” than a flat-chested woman.

    So unlike Marilyn Monroe, Meghan McCain struggles with the fact of being a sexual being. While Meghan McCain might not be ashamed of her body and might embrace her curves, she does “despise” the fact of being a “sexual creature” and attempts to “crush” this fact by becoming a blob.

    By the way, the second sentence of Meghan McCain’s quote (which has the words “embraced my curves”) [equivocates] on the word “curve”. A roundy-woundy, curly-wurly blob has curves — but such curves hide the structure of the human form. When we talk about a sexy, curvy woman we mean the curves that show off the structure of the feminine form — thin, fashion-models can be curvy. (Likewise, straight lines and planes show off the structure of the masculine form, but sponge-square-pants isn’t handsome.)

  18. Where did the phrase [I'm on cloud 9] come from. I heard Taylor Swift during an interview say she was on cloud 9. Why cloud 9, why not cloud 8 or 12?

  19. robbymml says: 100

    I didn’t see this anywhere, but could I request for the word(phrase?) [Knocked-up]? I have no idea why they’d use such a term to describe getting pregnant…

    ***Word request*** (nerd word, maybe?)

    [Über]
    Per Urban Dictionary:
    “The ultimate, above all, the best, top, something that nothing is better than.”

    This would be a super word for a lesson, with overwhelming possibilities! (Or am I just being hyper again? :mrgreen:

      Have A Good SUN-RISE:: :smile: :::England’s symbols are…french!
      Mari Boine – :razz: ElleMari was born and raised in Gamehisnjarga, a promontory around which the river Anarjohka quietly flows. Her parents made a living from salmon fishing and farming and she grew up steeped in the region’s natural environment. The school she attended, although close to home, reflected a very different foreign world. Even the language was foreign—there was not a single class in nine years of schooling conducted in her native tongue. She was ashamed of her people and her origin. A rebellion began, however, against her own role as an inferior[][ Lappish][] woman in the Norwegian society. She wrote her first song with the lyrics rooted in her own difficult experiences.[citation needed] She also performed on One World One Voice performing parts of ‘Gula Gula’ from her album with the same title……civil continents of the sub-continent :cool: :lol: :oops:

    • Not a nerd word–just a german one. Literally means “above”

      Nietzsche’s most well known work, “Also Sprach Zarathustra”, gives us the term “ubermensch” – superman.

    I thought you had done logo (or something related to brand names) but did not find [logo] in the list of all words. [L'eggs].

    [ginseng] Man-pencil?

    • Hs4Mm says: 96.1

      Actually, “man’s pencil” as the source for ginseng would be incorrect since it is redundant; more likely to be “man’s root/essence” in the sense of “that which makes a male male”. [Is "gin" in ginseng related to "gent"]?

  24. titan1912 says: 93

    I was wondering. Where does the expression, [red letter day] come from?

  25. cartman2000 says: 92

    Hi Marina I’m from sweden and maybe you could help me with a word that myself and my american friend have had multible fights about and who came up with the word first the scandinavians or the americans.

    the word is smorgasboard

    • leonard says: 92.1

      I love your request…[SMOGASBOARD]…and when I first tried meatballs ‘Sweede’ style, I got hooked on your type of food!!!

      cartman2000: have a sweet day!!! :cool:

      [food-fight]…[sloe-berries] and [][grog][]…

    • Evan Owen says: 92.2

      No question — it was the Swedish-Americans who thought of it? :razz:

      Seriously, where I grew up near Seattle, there were so many Norskis and Svenskas that [smorgasbord] was not considered a foreign word. :smile: And the smorgasbord often featured lutefisk — ya sure, you betcha! :grin:

  32. I would like to request the origin of the word [Berserk]

    • From the old Norse word for armour – “berserkr”, The “berserker” is an old tale from the Scandis about a warrior who went on a rampage after eating some freaky fungus (’shrooms, baby).

      Or what hippies call Saturday night.

  33. muggins says: 81

    GA – Geeks Anonymous.

    My name is Muggins and I am a geek.

    I noticed Marina’s tape repaired geek glasses. It reminded me
    of my cheapo reading glasses that busted at one hinge. Instead
    of taping them together, I went to the extra socially embarrassing
    length and wired it back together using thin brass wire and then coated the new wiring with quick setting epoxy resin that I had on hand.. I did the same to the other hinge even though only one hinge was broken to make it symmetrical. The brass looks like gold embedded in the clear resin and you’d think that the glasses would be spiffied up, but no, just curiously weird. I don’t wear them among company. But, if they rifle the top drawer of my desk, there they’ll be, my geek badge: home repaired glasses.

  43. JC says: 71

    Please enlighten me on the word – [fellatio] . Is it French ?

    • Latin “fellātus”, past participle of “fellare” – to suck

      And to compliment, “cunnilingus” comes from
      “cunnus” – the vulgar (see what I did there?!) latin word for vagina, and “lingus” which is “tongue”.

    on the “The Daily Gamecock”, a student newspaper

    Published: Wednesday, October 14, 2009

    Here is a sample from the article.

    However, apparently she has been successful in getting her fans to do more than just gawk at her. She constantly receives suggestions from loyal fans, and makes a point of thanking them in her videos. Sometimes she even sends out mass e-cards, to encourage “students” to keep coming back. So far, she has analyzed every word from “hiccup” to “floccinaucinihilipilification.” Surprisingly, she always manages to explain the origins of the word thoroughly, giving the channel substance as well as boy-friendly fluff.

  62. Job, did you say job? I’ll take it! When do I start. I can’t take the cold weather anymore. My fingers and toes are cold, my nose is cold, in short feeling kind of nippley. My wife turns the furnace down to 60 when she goes to work and my chain doesn’t reach that far. :lol:

    Being out of a job and depressed, I threw the bible on the bed and decided to read what it opened to. Oh, how nice, The Book of Job. I read it and was relieved that my troubles weren’t so bad after all. Things could only get worse. My priest said, “Don’t read that! It’s the most depressing book in the bible. Read the Psalms.” I found humor in fates determination of my reading material, though.

    …if it actually has an origin and it's just some made up phrase to make children laugh or to get it stuck in your head or something :P I don't know if you remember but it is the moto of Timon and Pumba from the Disney Film "The Lion King".

      That stop-loss is outrageous b.s. . It rankles me no end. They want more troops? Give them a fat raise and a decent G.I. Bill like they gave my dad after WWII, and me after Vietnam. Why isn’t the useless Washington press corps hounding the President about keeping troops beyond their enlistment? It started with Bush and it don’t seem to matter who’s Prez. Congress shares the blame. They’re shafting our troops and it’s just another reason why we should vote out the incumbents, no matter who they are. I’m emailing my Senators and Congresswoman about this stop-loss business.

    This woman has done some fancy things with her background image . Since the video doesn’t autoplay, I don’t think she is a YT partner.

    It is actually very clever idea: the vertically fading blue color of the columns is part of the background!

    What is amazing is how they vertically fading blue columns in the background maintain their width and height with the resizing of the user’s browser!!! And the text in pink continues to be legible at several zoom settings!

    My folks used to rent to a man and his family for 15 years. He was disabled due to his bad back. He just made himself at home and did chores around the house he rented from my dad. I tell the government I write and study my bible every day and that is an exaggeration. I asked the rehabiltation services in 1994 and 1995 for money for a home business in photography. The dummies in my old neighborhood worked for the government. and they heckled me as I had done some part time voluntary gardening to landscape my mom’s backyard. and the heckling was TWO HOURS A DAY IS A FULL DAYS WORK AT THE COUNTY COURTHOUSE! in 1993.

      Hey Rick I gave those pink tools to her last year for either her Birthday or as a Christmas present, can’t remember which CRS you know. I am glad to see she keeps them close to her ah ah ah side. :lol:

      • That’s cool! Had to laugh at myself-I was “admiring” Marina’s ah ah ah side in those pics and suddenly the tools just appeared as if my brain had just allowed me to ’see” anything other than her, even though I’d obviously been looking at them too. “Selective vision”, maybe?

        (And yep, I hear you on the CRS.)

    My job at the moment is to oogle all your jack-of-all-trades pics posted above (OMG, what a body of work it is too)! ;-)

    Actually, my present employment is a silhouette portrait artist at Walt Disney World…been doing it now for over 17 years there (23 years overall). The pay is great when business is booming (hourly, plus commission), but with the recession and the slumping economy, it’s been lousy lately. But it beats working my ass off as I did for 6 years as a warehouse/shipping manager!

    Dear Marina,
    At last, a new video from you! I really missed seeing you for a while. Seeing you in a bikini was just the sight I needed to see. BTW, it might not be a good idea to hang a hammer on the right side of your bikini, It might lower the bikini! :shock:
    My job is the manuscript I must e-mail to the publisher on the 15th of the month. I’ll probably work late tomorrow night to finish it. :sad:
    Here’s a word request: [shrug].
    A shrug is a gesture of indifference or lack of knowledge that is signalled by lifting both shoulders. Because you wear low-cut or even topless dresses (not to mention bikinis), you could demonstrate a shrug for us, as well. :razz:
    “Shrug” is derived from a Middle English word, “shruggen.” Today it means “I don’t know”, or “I don’t care”, or it can even mean both at the same time! It would be nice to see you shrug for us! :!:

  91. I am a cook/chef. The pay sucks, but I like what I do.

    ***Word request***

    [Spanglish]
    (In Spanish: [espanglés] )
    A mixture of Spanish and English, including English words in Spanish format.

    E.g. “parkear el carro” instead of “estacionar el coche”

    Q: in Spanish texting, what is this: “k a 6?” :?:

  93. Evan Owen says: 19

    Q: What do you need to endure your work?
    A: The patience of Job! :mrgreen:

  94. It was when a more than qualified cybertechnician said to me that synthetic women look like the real thing that I knew I was in the right line of work.

  95. I can do banya boy. Hold on a sec. Screaming ladies want more hot water- NOW! & banyan leaf rubdowns!

  103. wetsuit5 says: 9

    Were you making a tossed Gorby salad?

  104. Bob says: 8

    By coincidence (or was it E.S.P.?), I posted this quote on another page just before Marina posted her new Job video.

  105. neuroway says: 7

    WOWOW!!!

  106. Bob says: 6

    What a pretty bikini!
    My job is “Retired”, which sounds like BillyB did his job on me. :lol:
    Job is said to be an acronym for “just over broke”, meaning that you’ll never get rich working for someone else, and it’s certainly true of my job now because my wife keeps me busier than I ever was when I had paid employment and yet pays me nothing but compliments.

      “Enjoy life with your wife, whom you love, all the days of this meaningless life that God has given you under the sun— all your meaningless days. For this is your lot in life and in your toilsome labor under the sun.”
      Ecclesiastes 9:8-10

      “Better to live on a corner of the roof than share a house with a quarrelsome wife.”
      Proverbs 21:8-10
