Werewolf by Night Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 Must admit, I love Pagey. Lot of him in my playing, whether others can hear it or not; I figure I owe him.

sbrock1san.rr.com Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 "I'm chuffed" might be my new catch phrase. I've been borrowing from Jimmy for years, why should I stop now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Base Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 'Chuffed' is quite a common Brit phrase, not really a Jimmy-ism, but feel free to adopt it, I'm quite chuffed it's spreading Less than a year ago I worked in walking distance of that very spot, only a short train ride from where I'm sat right now.

Is "chuffing" an national pastime in ol' Blighty? Less than a year ago I worked in walking distance of that very spot, only a short train ride from where I'm sat right now. Any of you jealous Inordinantly so. I have always wanted to visit England and Japan. I got close to Japan, but never England. Always remember that you are unique. Just like everyone else.

Teahead Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 I can only find that "Chuffed" originated in the '50s and the word "Chuff" has long been a substitute for that well known expletive(!) I did come across a cool site dedicated to word and phrase origins. Some cool English based stuff, including... GIVING SOMEONE THE COLD SHOULDER When a guests would over stay their welcome as house guests, the hosts would (instead of feeding them good, warm meals) give their too-long staying guests the worst part of the animal, not warmed, but the COLD SHOULDER. RULE OF THUMB An old English law declared that a man could not beat his wife with a stick any larger than the diameter of his thumb!You can visit here. Tea.

daddyelmis Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 chuffed adj. Someone who describes themselves as being chuffed is generally happy with life. You can also get away with saying you are unchuffed or dischuffed if something gets your back up. Make sure you only use this word in the correct tense and familiarise yourself with the meaning of the word chuff too. and interestingly . . . chuff v. To chuff is to fart. Entirely seperate to the word chuffed so use with care.

Then it will be impossible to describe and no one will believe you if you try." - Sloane Crosley, Village Voice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
