Pan 'is ed in Kesey! 

 

Never used but was having a chat with me best mate last week and he goes.... fuck off gammon head.

Had me in stitches.

[kavah]

Do you ever remember that fella James Last?
He had an LP called Make Your Party Last.

I used to love that title, but nobody could understand why I was laughing.

This is always makes me chuckle

[kesey]

Thought he was back for a second then. He didnt answer my texts a few months ago.

[rob1966]

I'd say so yeah but not as much, blitzed,whacked and a rare one caned were all used from what I remember people being drunk. I've heard them all used in conversations describing when someone got a hiding too.

A few old & a few which may not be that old but don't hear every day..

Spends..Money for a day out/trip.
Duffed up..not one I used.
Bang/Banged..couple of meanings, KO & the other one.
Bingo'd.
Chewie.
Last..shit.

My Dad still uses Last to describe things.When I'm messing with the kids I tell them I'll duff them up in a minute.

[Tesco tearaway]

Is Bladdered still widely used?

Still hear that used 
One I haven't heard for donkeys years is 'Kayl-eyed' ( sic )
As in "I got really drunk last night; I was fucking Kayl-eyed."

[kesey]

Takin a whitey .

[kesey]

Ballooned.

As in ...

He's fuckin ballooned him lad.

[Dr. Beaker]

Dont know this one.

[kavah]

Dont know this one.

when you lose all colour, due imbibing too many intoxicants

For example on the train down from the Dam to PSV.

"Holy cow Kavah your mate's pulling a whitey there kidda".
"Cheers mate, give him a swig of Lucozade and lift him up there on the luggage rack, he'll be sound by Eindhoven".

Good to know, thought it was just what one dog said to another shortly after dropping a load...

Beautifully illustrated.

Kavah explains it well.

As a youth it usually involved lots of beer and hashish.

Reminds me of a time we had a sesh in ours on about 1992. One of the lads went dead quiet for ages and asked where the bog was. He was upstairs for ages so we turned the music down and could hear him throwing up. He then comes back into the room and says ...  some shit that.

 

We all burst out laughing but never cottoned on as to why.

Haha. Mate had a ken in an attic off Lark Lane. Bongs all night, mate went the colour of boiled shite and said he needed air and stuck his head out of the loft window. 2 seconds later projectile vomit . We went out the next morning to find a neighbour inspecting his puke riddled fizz bomb with the puke going right into the middle of the road. Whitey got gibbo.

Had a few sessions in an attic on the Lane too about 1990/91. Was some boss parties down there back then.

^ Boiled shite is a cracker

That brings back memories of my Ma

Who's just boffed ?

Deffo was still around in school in the 80's.

And the 90s.

[gregor]

Is Bladdered still widely used?

I'd say it's probably the main term used for being drunk.

[afc tukrish]

Not sure if it was uniquely Scouse, but we used to say boff for fart back in the mid to late 60's.

"Because he boffed Hendricks last week!

He did?

Yes! And after the game on Saturday, he fucked her. 

Barry?

What?

Boffing and fucking are the same thing."

[rob1966]

 He farted on a woman? Dirty bastard.

A word from the 70's I've just remembered was Choice!, to be exclaimed when observing or discovering something deeply unpleasant like a pool of vomit on the floor of the late night bus from town at the seat where you had decided to sit, or something or an act equally disgusting.

[Medellin]

Splenga?

[kavah]

Here’s one. Edna - with the emphasis on Naaaaa
If someone was a Walter Mitty type spoofing about battering mancs in the Stretford end or bunking the hovercraft to Rome

[WhoHe]

Yes remember this, in the version I recall you were rubbing your chin at the same time. As for lost scouse lingo virtually all of the ones listed above I use regularly, must be an age thing.

My Mum still says that a fair bit.

[kavah]

Doesn’t Martin Sheen refer to his mission as choice in apocalypse now meaning shite. He must have had scouse parents

We used to say that as ‘enyaaarrr’ while your tongue was in front of your bottom teeth pushing your lip out.
Sometimes accompanied by ‘gettin eggy’ while stroking your chin like you were deep in thought

Fascinating. My recollection was that it sounded more like 'en-errrr'; again, whilst stroking the chin. 

[kavah]

^ has anyone got any idea why? 

[rob1966]

Watching Ambulance on BBC1, filmed in Liverpool, Southerner Ambulance driver talking about calling his missus a sock robber

[24/7]

Fascinating. My recollection was that it sounded more like 'en-errrr'; again, whilst stroking the chin. 

My recollection is more like "Ed-nerrrr", same stroky chin thing though.

[gazzam1963]

Fascinating. My recollection was that it sounded more like 'en-errrr'; again, whilst stroking the chin. 

That was my recollection too with the stroking of the chin then preceded by the pulling away from the chin of the thumb and finger away , the further away the bigger the spoof that had been told to you

[kesey]

I remember that too but was more like enyeeer. Fuck knows how that started and what it actually meant.

[Stevie-A]

Fuck knows how that started and what it actually meant.

That sums this discussion up perfectly!

I'll be honest . I've doing doing it secretly to myself all afternoon. Cant wait to see my best mate on Sunday.

I am praying she's called Edna.

"Getting eggy" - Losing your rag.

Tom Pepper - Liar.

[Dr. Beaker]

I can just about remember 'getting eggy' - good one that.

[liverbloke]

"Getting eggy" - Losing your rag.

Tom Pepper - Liar.

Reminds me of 'getting an eggy on' - someone getting narky.

I also remember Quegg and Quentin for a homosexual - I think it came from Quentin Crisp.

And Meff for an unpleasant person.
