Okay, another part of the film I found hysterical was when Paul and Leo are trying to get Axel to have new ways of saying hello. "I'm a gorgeous woman with big large breasts"  "Axel... pucker your lips.... Helloooooooooo" How many ways can you say hello? |

Well, my dad always says "Top of the morning."  He is half Irish so I let him off |

You are very sweet to do so Lynx! ;D With friends "Hey" would be my 'hello' of choice... although my mum hears me say "Hey." and her response is: "Hay is for horses, pigs and cows" ...  |

I'm a 'Hey' kinda girl too ;D Hey/Hiya/Hi/Yo...all of those are used by me ;D I probably say plain old hello too but I don't really remember...though I definitely use it on the phone.

There must be a saying I can apply here 'good things come in threes' or something All this helloing reminds me of phonecalls...do people have good phone manner where you are? They don't here. A typical conversation: *phone rings* Me: hello? Them: hello. Me: Er...hello? Them: hello? You do know it's blah-blah, don't you? Grrr  Why don't people just say 'Hi, it's blah-blah...' and save all that nonsense. Ok, rant over ;D |

Me calling someone here: "Hi this is Kelley, is _______ available." and me answering the phone. "Hi this is Kelley, may I ask who's calling" Blah-blah? |

Thank you Lynx But I am thinking I must try: "Er... hello?" or quite literally say "Hello this is blah-blah" ... just for a hoot and giggle ;D |

Maybe I should ring you up, and we could practise REALLY bad phone manner. "What?" or "Speak already!" |

Oh would you? That would be amazing! ;D "Huh? I can't hear you! ....speak louder... who?" ...oh dear. That would be fun! |

LOL! I am 3/4 deaf in my left ear, so we could conceivably make that one work... But if I was speaking with you Lynx, no doubt I would have the phone at my right ;D Except just for fun, we might have to try that!!  "The phone line is disconnecting!" |

So you actually have a legitamate excuse for not hearing me.....what's my excuse? "I no speak English..." |

Post by The Rolling Rooster on Jul 24, 2005 17:20:22 GMT -5
I think I can use that excuse as well!! "I'm speechless." ...yes, when that day comes my mouth will just hang open and I won't have a word to say, I'll be too shocked.
