1. "Love."
For example, "All You Need Is Love," by the Beatles (a pop quartet of some note).

The refrain is "Love, love love, love, love, love, love, love, love."

4. Ball.
Seriously. Say it about 50 times, it's reduced to gobbledygook.

Hey! I should nominate "Gobbledygook" while I'm at it.

6. Yes, but if you ask the cute bartender at the Beachland "wanna ball?"
She will slap you. Or at least, me.

So it still has some meaning.

18. Hot damn!
I'm talking about the one with the large... beer mugs. Who, whenever you ask for a drink, she puts her large... beer mugs... on the bar.

That gives me a large... beer mug.

36. No, not her.
Edited on Mon Aug-02-04 09:45 PM by asthmaticeog
Sorry. I know who you mean, though, short blonde hair, I'm thinking her name's Chris, Kristen, Christina, something like that. Am I in the ballpark? And aren't you married, you naughty, naughty boy?

On edit: Wow, how far off-topic did WE get?

42. Oh yeah, you know who I mean.
I may have been told her name at one (or more) occasions, but I wasn't paying attention.

And NOBODY is married at the Beachland. :evilgrin:

12. But I like a good rub!
I mean, a rub really rubs me the right way. And there's the rub.

Oh, rubbish, you're right.

"Svelte" is the best example.
