Failure, in one chart

[slobber]

when i was young, my mom taught me that "wuss" (or "wussy") was a portmanteau of "wimp" and "the p-word"

in my present-day research, i can find no etymological basis for her claims.

Fast Times at Ridgemont High. "You are a wuss. Part wimp and part pussy."

My Mom decided to take a college English class at my high school after I went off to college. The class was allowed to choose a movie to review. They chose that movie. Mom was not impressed with the nakedness and such while she sat through it with a bunch of high school Seniors who were trying to get English I out of the way.

Sounds like the kids at Ridgemont High were a little too fast for Mrs. Dobber.

She just let me know that she thought that the movie was inappropriate for the high school kids to be watching and that she didn't care for it. However, I am pretty sure that she didn't care for the part that you specifically mentioned, too.

[star seed 7]

pretty good movie tho

[slobber]

pretty good movie tho

top 5 for me. Not kidding. I loved that movie so hard when I was in school. I recorded the TV edited version in high school and watched it about 100 times. I had a hoodie like spicolli from the "havin' some food and learnin' about Cuba" scene. I rocked it pretty hard.


Gonna win 'em all!

[Mr Bread]
