OK DU guys--What does "Stop Winging" mean?

[Whoa_Nelly]

Or is this just another Chinese to English misinterpretation?
Anyway....

What every man REALLY wants this Christmas

[plcdude]

1. I think it

meant to say whining

[billyskank]

3. "whingeing"

As in, it isn't the taking part, it's the whingeing.

[AllegroRondo]

17. "whingeing" is British slang for whining

at least it was the last time I visited London

[billyskank]

19. I know

;)

[AllegroRondo]

20. doh - and if I had looked at your profile, I would have realized that

so, how are things on your side of the pond?

[InternalDialogue]

2. It's Freeper for "whining"

:evilgrin:

[Left Is Write]

5. Actually, it's English.

But that must be the freeper spelling. They left out the h.

[billyskank]

8. I think usually we will put an e in there too

after the g. :hi:

[Left Is Write]

21. I've never seen it written whingeing...

But I do know it's whinge in the present-tense form.

Then again, I am not a Brit and will defer to the Brits and Aussies on this one! :)

[Left Is Write]

4. It means whining, but they spelled it wrong.

It should be whinging.

[Spider Jerusalem]

6. Maybe it's supposed to say "stop whingeing" and they didn't have room?

("whinge" is British English and means the same thing as "whine", more or less.)

[Whoa_Nelly]

7. Aha! Found it! Has something to do with Martial Arts

Stop Winging!

[puerco-bellies]

9. Hmmm.. I just found something I would camp out in front of Best Buy for.

Who knew.

[InternalDialogue]

13. "Stop Winging" is the button you pwess

when you aren't in the mood to say "Hewwo?"

I believe it's available only at Barbara Walters' house.

[Whoa_Nelly]

[Oeditpus Rex]

16. I thought maybe

it had something to do with the Venus Butterfly.

22. An example

I was in a shop in New Zealand, and this little kid kept asking for something. Finally, the mother says, "No, because you're whingeing. Then the kid whines, "I'm not whingeing."
