25 Jul 04 - 12:04 AM (#1233212) Subject: BS: PISS - Our most versatile word? From: Billy the Bus G'day, PISS - is the most versatile word in the English Language I reckon! A couple of decades back I wrote a long paragraph where the word "piss" (and derivatives) never occurred more than four words apart. I may be able to reproduce it - but let's see what you Catters come up with. Here's a few clues. The paragraph covered... 1. Liquids from the weather, through alcohol imbibing to excreting. 2. Emotions from laughter to aggression. 3. Mnay US/NZ(UK) expressions were 'culturally opposite' 4. There was more... BUT... Piss off - I'm off on the piss... Please add your piss-useless paragraphs here.. Cheers - Sam |

You really pissed me off by getting pissed and high and driving around Piscataway while it was pissing with rain. It was piss-poor judgment. If you'd been piss-tested or breathelysed, you would have pissed away your life savings paying the fine. |
