Winnie
Leupy

Remmy
Bushy?

Only if I'm out shootin' 'yotes or speed goats.




Clark

Or wapiti.

Hey guys, "I shot the Grousie with the Winnie and it was flushed up by my Cockie." (English Cocker for the non-cool crowd.)

"Guys, guys where you going so fast?"

In a word, no.

My personal (non) favorite - "Runnin". As in "What ammo you runnin?". "How does your Bushy run?".

Cringe every time I hear or read it.

The Lupie also sometimes sits in a "saddle" which are known as rings to the un-cool.

Is that similar to "fixin"? Like I'm fixin to go shoot some yoties.

Don't forget shotty, or projos...

Boolits....

Hey now, my Husky said Husky on it! LOL

What's the diff anyways? Prolly (least favorite, right up there with projos!) nothing.

My Winnie "wears" a Leupy. Really? It's not just mounted on there?

Pills.

Stovepipe

Im going to "build" an AR15.

I don't mind Remlin.

Montucky
Super Chicken
Illuminatti
Poke
Smooch

I had a brief moment of clarity and removed Husky. I was thinking about the future and the possibility of Huskemaw becoming the new Vortex.

Hint.

Laffin'.

I can't believe all of you guys aren't slumming a Leupy...


Its the only thing to shoot muleys with.....

Moose knuckle.

Nice avatar.

Avatar? Looks like a set of Ivankas to me...

Careful I brought this one up awhile back and a lot of folks got their panties in a knot. I agree it makes me cringe too.

Why, what are you slinging?

I was slingin' pills at some steel yesterday evening with my SAAMI chambered two-fiddy.

Mickey stock, Loopie up top and a 1-8" spout.




Dave

I'm runnin' Horns in my Sucks 700. It's wearin' a Leupy in Talleys. Sub 7 lbs ready to rock.

Nice rig.




Clark

Well I'm about to slum some 95 gr. Barnes in my Sucks 6.8 with the Leupy in the Talleys, and weighing out at 7.75 lbs all up. Twisted 1 in 10...oughta be skookum.

You didn't really buy a 6.8, did you?




Dave

that's a 270 Tranny....

The AIDS virus is less gay than a 6.8.

Hopefully he's just joking around.




Dave

Neocons and Rinos - not only cool, but use establishes one's bona fides as a right-thinker.

GO --->>>HERE <<<---

Sweet Fancy Moses.




Dave

What cartridge is best for Sassquatchees?

9mm.

Buffalo Bore.

Bad medicine.

A few years ago I wrote a very short, fictional elk-hunting story using plenty of words like Leupy, Winnie, etc. Supposedly I used my Fordy pickup to head up into the mountains and take a "spikey elky." Posted it here and quite a few people took it seriously, congratulating me. Apparently adding a "y" to almost any noun is considered standard English these days by many shooters.

Ranks right up there with turning nouns into verbs.

Or you could do and "ie", much trendier than simply adding a "y".

What was wrong with REM or WIN?

How much time does it save to add a Y or an ie?

Are highschool girls really the coolest people on the planet? So much that we all try to sound like them?

Makes us sound a bit vapid.

Don't know why the use of that vernacular bothers me, but it does.

KFPRO pronounced "Kiff-Pro" (Kiss, Find Pressure, Rock On)

I wouldn't be supplized if it's the acronym section of the Stickionary.

All dem fancy words don't mean doodly squat

That's not a "valley girl" BTW . . .

Try not to be jealous....


Good luck with that.

These would be okay to name your sled dog team.

"On, King, on you Huskies!"

I remember that.

Is that similar to "fixin"? Like I'm fixin to go shoot some yoties. [/quote]

Fixin has been around since the first of us rednecks reached the South...

fixin to
vernacular peculiar to the the southern US, means one is about to do something or it is in the process of being done.
I'm fixin to whoop yo skanky butt, however I must first wax poetic.

I wished ebonics had not hit this sport also...

Still a nice rig if those Horns mic 0.277"? (They don't, just a what if). And please elaborate on your answer.

Thanks in advance,

Sam

Don't know why, but " triple duece " gets under my skin.

I proudly shoot a model 700 Winnie...

If you don't understand it's because you weren't there...

I think men do this just horse-assing around and having fun, I'm no fuggin grammar cop and don't give a chit how they write, I don't wear panties, so no danger here of twisting!

The fuggers that are ocd about grammar/writing can get off their lazy retired asses and go volunteer to teach it proper if it REALLY is a bother, and not just something they use to get a bitch on like a bloviating woman.

Wait a minute...I think I resemble that remark........






BTW: Correct use of " bloviating".....kudos!

LOL, I've camped and killed game with you, you ain't no linguistics poosie.

.270's are legit.

6.8's are like walking around with a pillow case full of dicks. They're that gay.




Dave

I feel that you have directed that remark at me personally.

You have taken this thread off-topic in so doing.

You've made me angry, and I simply must lash out!

You leave me no choice!

What kind of words are 'ain't' and 'poosie'?


Shame on you!

And I arrived at the above accurate summation after hearing you speak after 4/5 stout Amaretto Sours.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^THESE^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Sammo's pillow case?

SHHHHHHHH!!!!!



Dont mention the Amaretto sours or 'Flave will think I'm gay....

OOPS, then I wont say I liked em either, I don't know, but think they could be a hell of a panty dropper on women folk.

No. It makes us sound stupid. Like wearing baseball hats backwards.

No one could compare to "BIG STICK" for slang & jargon. Often I ran his posts thru my Alaskan bush interpreter software.

And it replied, "What the hell?"

I always figured that Alaskan bush thought and sounded like bush from anywhere else. Did not catch on that big stick was a bush. hmmm...

That explains why the "gun sock" that came with ingwe's 6.8 looks like a pinky warmer.

I started a serious thread and put much thought in to it(maybe 10 seconds). And then all of you impotent bed wetting homosexuals come along turn the thread into mindless pap. You know who you are. Shame on you.

To make myself feel better I'm going to have to take a bath - so I can sit on the drain while the water is running out of the tub.

My favorite .223AI is running Barnes TTSX 55 grainers, slumming a Leupy sitting in Talleys,and the whole platform is nestled in a McSwirly...



Happy now?

People actually worry or think about sounding cool?? Good line ingwe!!

...........................and spinnin a cds while schleppin a leica-geo!

You are so mean.

Dopey.....

This person could give a rat's ass about sounding cool. This person wanted to have some fun and read some humorous responses. Mission accomplished.

New a guy in the Army that referred to his Winchester 1886 as his
"Chester"

How about maggy, as in 44 maggy, or 7 maggy?

Used to have a customer when I worked in the LGS that used all that terminology. We called him Mr. Winnie Maggie

GFY

Moose knuckles are real.

Shhh! Stevil will want to bite it.

Reminds me of the worst I've actually seen used, "maggy shotty." Mind jumps to thinking of a worn out saloon girl in something like Lonesome Dove.

That was incredible......

ingwe;
Top of the morning to you sir, I trust this finds you all doing well and keeping sufficiently cool.

Whenever the subject of "proper use of the English language" comes up, I first recall my Grade 9 metalwork teacher, one Mr Urgen Danz.

Back in those "dark days" it was still acceptable for teachers to smoke in class - well Mr. Danz did anyway...

I can still recall him berating a fellow student for using some slang term. Please picture a bespectacled man in a blue shop coat standing at the front of the class, holding his smoking cigarette in that European way with the thumb and middle finger while muttering in a VERY thick German accent.

"Cheezus chentlemen, you all need a thezaurus. You have less comprehension of your language than I do and I'm a GD foreigner!"

Ah the good old days of calling a digging instrument what it is, no?

He was, I should add, the person who first used the term "proper nomenclature" that I'd encountered and when I'm using it teaching a Hunter Safety class it's all I can do to not throw a wee bit of a Deutsche accent into it.

All the best to you all ingwe.

Dwayne

Pipe or tube for barrel

Maybe not, but he does claim to be quite the cunning linguist.

Till the al-key-haul kicks in.

Methinks he was talking about oral skills, not verbal skills when sober.

Bee

I like shootin' chucks with my hummer - I'm cooler than I thought I was............

Just found a new one when reading another thread: "Party" for Nosler Partition.

Now you can Party a muley forky, if you're in that sort of mood.

Defiitely add that one to the annoying list.

Why doesn't anyone get annoyed when someone says Wifey?

Oh yes, it's something we all screw, how silly of me to even have asked.

Because you use that term and nobody wants to get their ass kicked!

If I called mine 'wifey' I WOULD get my ass kicked!

What are you doing out of bed this early Your Highness?

.257 Bob - What, you can't pronounce Roberts?

drover

Some good stuff, or, reading.

I like this word:---- Prolly---;<)---

No Bushy for me!!

What if you tell the Wifey she is bitchy?? Ass whippin time??

Things that annoy me.....

1) yotey....

2) bang stick.....

3) flave....

Not necessarily in that order.....

I killed a yotey with my bang stick, Ballistic Tips were the flave of the day!! Rock On!!

What is this? The Rifle Loony version of Ebonics?

^

"Weapon System" makes me throw up in my mouth....

Ditto, I always say 257R. Mine likes "Accubombs ".

If you use any of these terms there's a better than even chance you also wear sparkly pocket jeans, order drinks with umbrellas, your caffeinated beverages are most likely soy lattes with all the gayest additives and trying to decide which bathroom to use while you're at Target buying more sparkly pocket jeans, is enough stress to send you whimpering to your therapist (whom you have on speed dial).

I wish those that use 'ebonics' were NOT in this sport!

So those that do can just KMA!!

I just caught this post.

I would kick your ass.





If I weren't afraid of you.




I already know it doesn't do any good to shoot you.

You said it very well !! I have very very similar feelings.

Thnx

Jerry

That is funnie.

Agreed. Sounds ridiculous, but it seems to have become obligatory in virtually every 24HC post.

It does sound really dumb.

Kinda makes me want to respond with this "I'm running' Sketchers in it" or some other lame azz answer.

It is my asseratation that disseminating all this accumulated knowledge had made me suffer from constipation. I.E. thinking about all this crap makes me need to take a schidt.

Here's some that got missed.

"pill"
"smoke pole"
"Elsie"
"B guns" (for Browning and Beretta)
"Remchester"

I didn't see 'remlin' either.

"wheel gun"
"Annie"

The cool people say wheeler instead of 4 wheeler.


"We took the wheelers over and picked up those strays"....etc.

Ya, when the real cool guys are on horseback.

They can pronounce it ,just can't spell it

I also see many acronyms posted that I have no clue as to their meaning.

TTFN -(Tigger)

tranny

Thanks Muley.

TFF.

Thanks Hilary.

Apparently, it's not how it sounds, but rather how it makes the speaker or writer feel. If there was no positive reinforcement, they wouldn't continue to do it.

If you fart, in mixed company

Only if you laugh and high five afterwards.

+1

Is it alright to say .257 Bee or must you say .257 Roy?

GFY

Lighten up Francis. We are just having fun.

If you are "running" anything smaller than I am you are a stunt shooter.
If it is bigger than mine you are compensating for your tiny pecker.

How could I have forgotten SCOTUS and POTUS?

I can't pull the trigger until my friend looking through the spotting scope tells me to "send it". If I'm by myself I just announce "fire in the hole" before firing.

All of this is hilarious, but I'm still proud of my model 700 Winnie.

So has anybody ever heard someone say they're "runnin' a Rugie?"

I'm not into that X rated stuff.

Double Husky

Husqvarna rifle with Huskemaw scope. No need to thank me. I do this out of love for my fellow man.

Tranny fluid?

"I pulled that one" every time you shoot.

Let's leave perversion out of this.

Winny-Winchester
Remmy-Remington
Leupy-Leupold
Tranny-Transmission

Wasn't thinking of it in your context but you obviously were.

Only if you start your sentences with "So" and throw in an "at the end of the day".

No, but I used to hear the term "hawking a lugie"

Speaking of which - should we start calling that venerable German pistol a Lugie?

I was agreeing with you about the idiocy of "tranny" for transmission.

You sick bastid.

Bastid






P

Sorry, I misunderstood you.

"Just sayin'"

Stop apologizing. You either mean it or you shouldn't say it. Be a man you millennial girly-boys.

every trigger is "crisp", whether a crisp 2 lbs or whatever, they always manage to make them crisp.

Fart in the damn jug

Did I just hear glass breaking?

Fodder

How about "I tickled the trigger on my Tikky"

9 mil

Texass heart shot

You are obviously not a gear head, motor head, cycle guy, et.al. That's a common term for TRANSMISSION, in this case fluid.

Jerry

I know that - I just find it a ridiculous (and stupid-sounding) "shortening" of transmission, especially given the alternate use for transvestite.

The use of tranny for transmission

PRE DATES, transvestites. Actually I've never heard it applied to "it" or "them". Guess that's not unusual since I don't turn in their circles.

Jerry

Anyone who gets on the radio and says "be advised"......

Transvestites predate transmissions...

Tho they're both equally shifty

Only if you re stuck in the 7 th grade.

What!

No "silly-wets"?

Ya gotta spin yer silly-wets when dialin' dope

You mean

MPAJ?

Monkey Phugkin A Jug

I think the various -ey endings are gay.

Except for abbreviating Hornady to Horney. No negative connotations

"Send it"

Ooy.

Bingo

Bitchy or bushy...either way I've never minded too much...

Definitely bougie and bushy before bougie and bitchy.

Does that help them decide which way they want to be?

"Boom Stick" is one that annoys me a lot...........in the same way this new noise being sold as "country" music does.

Adults engaging in baby talk sound stupid not cool.

I prefer "bang stick".

Had to stop hunting with my bang stick after I got married...for some reason the wife didn't approve...

Wife is a beach, and I got crabs.

Guys that call ATVs (aka 3 & 4 wheeler) bikes drive me bonkers

Bike, for an ATV, is super gay!

In a business setting when someone has volunteered to me that, "I'm an honest man and I like to do business with honest people", without fail has been a crook.

"Natty"

Randomly throwing out the word "whom" (instead of who) where it doesn't belong, does not make one sound like an intellectual.

A phrase that bothers me: "If I do my part"

Nor does using "I" when "me" is the correct word.

Here are a few other of my favorites.

The poster types "end of discussion". I guess everyone else needs to keep their opinions to themselves. It's kind of like Democrat politicians.

The poster types the vaunted "nuff said". I guess you must stop. See above for "end of discussion".

Finally, the phrase used by those I deem to be the mentally challenged, "just sayin'". It's as though use of this phrase absolves the individual using it from any challenge or scrutiny. After all, they don't really mean it, they're "just sayin'".

Go fill an ark


Like a Rock Star

I hate it when Democrats say we need to "pay our fair share" when we're in the 50% that already does.

How about when black folks get on TV throw out words like "Community" and "Programs". They think it makes them sound educated.

I heard this lady one time say, "We needs mo pro-grams fo the comm-u-nit-ee".

Had a fellow shotgun instructor who was fond of telling the new recruits during the firearms training, "unless the command to fire has been given, keep your booger hook off the bang switch."

Excellent, excellent post!

I'll add a favorite, "Do this and don't look back" in response to a request for advice. Unless of course the poster is an all knowing, all seeing master of the universe.

my favorite word for the last day is "boberts."

"all day long,if I do my part"

drover

Words I DO like to work into conversation from time to time are "bludgeon" and "afoot". Also, even though I'm not British, I like to throw in "Bob's your uncle" from time to time...

plethora - I love that word but it is hard to work into a conversation without sounding ridiculous.

pleth·o·ra

drover

Can't blame you there, calling something the "mutt's nuts" sounds WAY better than calling it the "cat's a$$"...
