Or even worse- both together. Xfm dj just said something was "totes amazeballs". Speak the LANGUAGE FFS.

I remember a few years back some dickheads people started saying 'rents', short for parents. Get thee to the far side of fuckoffville.

What does 'reem' mean? I keep seeing it on nieces facebook but no idea what it means.

JugsMcGee · 12/05/2012 17:28

Are you frothing? Grin

It's REALLY annoying.

picnicbasketcase · 12/05/2012 17:30

Don't like frothing, it sounds like a symptom of a nasty infection.

'dot com' !!!!! I HATE when people say that after anything! Reminds me of Alexandra Burke - shudder

shockers · 12/05/2012 17:49

Reem has been around since the 70's!

Never heard of the other two though... is this what I have to look forward to...?

What are your thoughts on "well jel"?

foams at mouth with rage

picnicbasketcase · 12/05/2012 17:53

But what does it mean? I was trying to work it out when I saw someone with a bag that said 'Don't be jel, be reem' on it the other day Confused

backwardpossom · 12/05/2012 17:54

"Well jel" means "I am very jealous"

I think. My pupils use it all the time.

backwardpossom · 12/05/2012 17:54

No idea on 'reem' though.

HolyCameraConfusionBatman · 12/05/2012 17:58

YANBU about 'totes'

I like amazeballs though. I also really like guesstimate and chillax.

People who say 'tatty bye', 'Tessies' (for Tesco) and 'taties' (for potatoes) should be shot. Fact.

cherrypez · 12/05/2012 17:58

Totally agree with all these hideous phrases being slated...especially 'dot.com' being added to things. I see it on fb all the time...tired.com...bored.com...etc. But, BambieO why does it remind you of Alexandra Burke? lol
