stevieb Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 When did this phrase creep its fucking way into society. Cant watch SSN without every tom, dick and arsene using it left right and centre. Noticed it used by Jo Hart about 6 months ago and thought he sounded like a twat. Its now everywhere. Your opinion does not need reinforcing you overpaid bunch of twats. Pisses me off... fo' sho' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kent_white Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Not as bad as referring to football teams as 'is'. As in 'Manchester City is back at the top of the Premier League'. An Americanism too far..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youri McAnespie Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 (edited) I always thought it was a European thing. You mean like a Schteve McClaren 'for shure' rather than a Jay Z 'fo' sho'?

DazBob Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 I always thought it was a European thing Me too. My European colleagues say this a lot. Apart from Twitcher, I've not really noticed it said by British folk much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youri McAnespie Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 (edited) "Can I get" winds me up no end I suspect if you worked in Starbucks or McDonalds and replied: "No, it's staff only behind the counter I'm afraid..." You probably wouldn't last long. Speaking of which, this exchange outfoxed someone of a beautiful mind today... Me: Can I speak to ***** please? Gormless: She's not in the office today, she'll be in tomorrow. Me: That's what you said yesterday. Gormless: Eh?
