My son used to say: "I'm so upcited." (trans: excited)
Now he's almost 18 and says things like "fa sho". (trans: for sure) He says it's the new "thank you".
I think that depends strongly on the pronounciation. I suspect in most cases it means "Kiss My A**" It's a different dialect, round these parts it was Fo Sho', but the meaning is still the same. Not so much a "thank you", but an acknowledgement of understanding, derived from the old English "for sure".  Example: Did you see that girl in the miniskirt? Dang she was fine! Fo Sho!Have a great day sir. Fo Sho! |

| | Posted: | | | | Getrude Stein about colons and semi-colons:
There are two different way of thinking about colons and semi-
colons you can think of them as commas and as such they are purely
servile or you can think of them as periods and then using them can
make you feel adventurous I can see that one might feel about them as
periods but I myself never have, I began unfortunately to feel them as a
comma and commas are servile they have no life of their own they are
dependent upon use and convenience and they are put there just for
practical purposes. Semi-colons and colons had for me from the first
completely this character the character that a comma has and not the
character that a period has and therefore and definitely I have never
used them. But now dimly and definitely I do see that they might well
possibly they might have in them something of the character of the
period and so it might have been an adventure to use them. I really do
not think so. I think however lively they are or disguised they are they
are definitely more comma than period and so really I cannot regret not
having used them. They are more powerful more imposing more pre-
tentious than a comma but they are a comma all the same. They really
have within them deeply within them fundamentally within them the
comma nature.
(She follows with a treatise about the comma, but since she refused to keep to the rules, comma-wise, it is better not to go on, some people here could get the wrong ideas, Invelos-wise).
