“If your grandma is pulled over for speeding and doesn’t take the cigarette out her mouth when she tells the police officer to go to hell...you might be a redneck.”

Have you ever heard a refrigerator referred to as a “Coolerator?” I always thought that one was funny. But, they actually did make iceboxes before branching out into refrigerators, then air conditioners and dehumidifiers.

I’ve heard that one before, but it was KMA, not GTH. KMA sounds more authentic to me.

It’s a word that was based on something real, something physical but no longer is.

Here for example, footage refers to film. But the video is surely not film, but they still call it footage.

Same with tape. People will say they used their cell phone to tape something. But their is no tape involved anymore.

Guess what would have happened to the store owner should this have happened in the UK.”

Surprise it didn’t happen to this guy since it happened in Austin, one of the parts of Texas some of like to pretend doesn’t exist.

Footage is a fossil word.

Many terms outlive their original application and etymology.

Not an issue.

My husband still calls it tin foil. He’ll be grillin, “Sweetheart, do we have any tin foil?” I keep telling him we dont have any tin foil as I pull out the aluminum foil from the same drawer its always in. Then I point where the box says “aluminum.”

All those shots, no hits? Boy needs practice, and stop sucking on the cigarette while shooting.
