( Bartleby A dead man on vacation, Thu 25 Feb 2010, 9:02, Reply)

Mainly plain
but occasionaly either chocolate variety if I'm feeling decadent!

I hate the word choccy
But I don't know why.

I also hate the word crumpet, especially when used to describe attractive people of the opposite sex.

I think this is a class thing
What are the words you would choose?
( Bartleby A dead man on vacation, Thu 25 Feb 2010, 9:15, Reply)

I don't think I would shorten chocolate
because the results can only be choc or choccy, the sound of which just grates on me. It reminds me of that annoying comedienne Sarah Millican.

She is fucking terrible.

Hmmmmm
Many people on here reduce their words to text speak, which I hardly understand. Very few people speak without using coloquialisms, and the posts on here are really a cross between writing and speech. This means, in my honest opinion that some "slang" is acceptable.

I agree that Sarah Millican is very annoying though.

Slang, like swearing, enriches the English language immeasurably
I'd say. Id' be lost without terms like 'shirter' and 'helmet'.

Text speak, however, is an abomination.

I hate I hate when people refer to children as Kids

I have no idea why...

It's because you fuck underage goats.
PS also, you hate it twice?
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Thu 25 Feb 2010, 9:27, Reply)

(hate it twice that is, not fuck goats)

I think 'crumpet'
has an endearingly Carry On-esque quality to it, but it is frightfully vulgar.

At the risk of sounding like a PC bumder, I cannot think of a generic collective term for the opposite sex that I don't dislike intensely. 'Totty', in particular, makes my flesh creep.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Thu 25 Feb 2010, 9:31, Reply)

I like the term crumpet.
It can be used for either sex and has an endearing, non sexual feeling about it.
( girlinthehole, Thu 25 Feb 2010, 9:34, Reply)

It's the first syllable
the 'crump' bit. It I hate the way that sounds. Like stepping on snow. *shudder*.

I too hate totty as well and no, I can't think of nice slang to describe the opposite sex.

Stepping on snow and hearing it compact is one of my favourite things in the entire world
I saw a bit of a documentary about Yellow Stone last night and it was full of beautiful snow; I'm lamenting not being to afford going skiing this year :(
