Discourse on dingbats and dingleberries... |
|
Edited on Fri Feb-20-04 02:15 PM by afraid_of_the_dark
What's up with all the name calling lately?
EDIT: What constitutes dingbattiness and dingleberriness? What is the distinction between the two (i.e., how would I know if a particular DU'er is a dingbat or a dingleberry? Besides Robb, of course - I think that's fairly well established).

3. It could be worse, ya know.... |

Dingbat and dingleberry are actually pretty low-key.
Other insults, such as poopy head, pencil neck, and mouth-breathin'-booger-eatin'-moran haven't even been muttered lately.
But I haven't check GD Primary lately, though...

only a ball of poop? That is what I call the balls of poop in my dog's fur. I say "Hey, get over here and let me get that dingleberry off you."
Can a dingleberry also be those balls that develop on one's sweater? Or are those just called "kuzzies"? :shrug:

5. I always heard those referred to as 'pills'. |

Lived next door to a retail major in college.
Learned some really useless clothing/retail trivia.
