TaLk oF tHe TeEnS by Milky
Youngsters today talk funny. We don't understand them, and we don't like it. To make things
right, we present this guide to teen terminology.
"Let's hang out": The teenage way of saying "Why we don't troddle off somewhere and hang
out."
"I'm thirsty": Street slang for "Goodness me, I am indeed feeling a mite parched, and for
this reason feel rather eager to achieve a beverage of some variety, in order that I might
utilize said beverage upon my rather dry and brittle throat-like organ(s)."
"I have to go to the bathroom": Hip equivalent to "Mademoiselle, I wonder if I might be
so bold as to inquire if I might partake of the salon which you have kindly set aside for tasks
including, but not limited to, the washing of one's bodice, and the elimination of bodily fluids,
through such divers methods as urination, defecation &c."
"Hi": The teen version of the phrase "Good day and however do you do, my dear Lord/Lady
Buckingthorpehamshire, how are the horses? Oh la ti da, let us go gallopeth through the fields
of Northamptonchestershirethorpe."
"The phone's for you": Teenage for: "Your Excellence, a communication has arrived by way
of the telephonic device which hangs so stealthily from the wall. It would appear that a party
wishes to engage in a conversation of some variety with your most glorious personnage, if thou
wilt have it. What say ye, in relation to the matter being discussed? Yea or nay? I beg thee,
most worshipful Lord, relate your wishes with regards to the aforementioned matter of the
proposed telephone conversation, to I, your most humble servant, in order that I might better
relate your divine wishes to the individual who currently awaits your response, like a beetle
on a hook."
