Subject: RE: BS: Fer like, hosers, eh.....
Oh yeah. eric... note that "Fer like" is correct in hoser grammar.

Insertion of a comma may have indicated to you LH's explanation. However, "Fer like...", is a commonly used hoser sentence initiation, akin to, say, "I say old chap, ..."

In this particular instance, the introductory nature is combined with the actual meaning, that being, "For Canucks."

I have never associated "hoser" with "fucker", although it may mean exactly so to some. To me, hoser means a lad who would stick his hose is any only skank after a night on the beer.
