A Dictionary of Yenny-isms
so... ever wondered exactly what makes yenny tick? what is that psycho yenny REALLY thinking when she says things? lol well for those who simply can't decipher the bizarre things i say, this dictionary contains definitions of words/phrases i tend to use, and a description of some things that mean alot to me..
Bubby: this is my nickname for krystle. it stems from a sort of "inside joke", if you'd like to call it that. feel free to ask me, and i'll tell you.
[Damn] Crazy Asians, those: (also "stupid asians", "easyway asians") alright, before you whip out the big guns and file for racism, bear in mind that i AM asian myself =P "crazy asians", as krystle and i call them, are very easily spotted (especially around sunnybank). they're the kind of obnoxious asians with staring problems and volume control issues. they talk loudly at the top of their voices to others in their little groups (and only ever in chinese of course, speaking english is like against the law to them); tend to walk in one big, wide line so that they take up the entire pathway and no one can walk around them; and are generally inconsiderate. when driving, they tend to think they can do whatever the hell they like, such as stop their car in the middle of mains road so they can drop people off at the bus stop, or drive on the wrong side of the road so that any oncoming traffic is forced to drive AROUND them. you can recognise them by the way they speak asian, and ONLY asian, in public.
Fanfics: my latest passion. "fanfic" stands for fan fiction. fiction written by fans =P i'm sure you knew that.. lately i've been really into kpop fanfics.. which isn't entirely all that healthy because some take hours to read. *sigh* what an obsession to be plagued with.. =( for some good kpop fanfics, head to www.soompi.com/fanfix
Fobby Asians: fobby asians can differ from crazy asians in a few ways (although quite often, fobby asians overlap into the crazy asian category). fobby asians have bad english skills - poor grammar, lousy spelling, inability to pronounce words... that's what makes them "fobby". however, not ALL fobby asians are crazy asians, because not all of them are rude and obnoxious in the ways that those damn crazy asians are so famous for. in actual fact, some fobby asians are incredibly nice and very easy to make friends with.
Jeebers: (also commonly spelt "Jebus" and "Geebus") hmm no prizes for guessing where this originated from. "Jeebers" comes from the simpsons - i think the episode where homer decides he doesn't need religion? at one point he gets himself into strife [the house caught fire or something, i think?? my memory is very vague on this one].. and he starts screaming, "ahh!! save me, jeebeers! save me!" kekeke.
Mafia, my: (also "Vendo Mafia") the vendo mafia is something created by moe and myself. it originated a long time ago, when moe and i were joking about creating our own mafia and recruiting people to come along and join. the vendo mafia revolves around a vending machine [haha how typical.. food!] - our idea was to flip a vending machine onto its back, attach wheels to the bottom, and hey presto! we have ourselves a vending machine car, aka the vendo-mobile! we chose a vending machine because hey.. we love food! candy, greasy chips, pretzels... if it's dispensable and it tastes good, our vendo-mobile will have it! moe also noted that the glass of a vending machine is very thick - quite possibly even bullet proof =P - after retelling his friends' experience of bashing at the glass with trolley poles but still being unable to crack it open. with defense that strong, and food so tasty on the inside, who can resist?! lol too bad no one else seems to find the idea alluring, as right now the only members that stand are myself, the don, and m0ie, underboss who was also recently promoted to the position of co-don. =P
Noisyfucker: this term was invented by conway, so all credit goes to him. the 'noisyfucker patrol' [abbreviated to NF] is the name used to refer to three guys in our jap class. the NF patrol consists of noisyfucker 1 (*cough* tay *cough*), noisyfucker 2 (*cough* yeejiun *cough*) and smart noisyfucker (referring to benny.. sometimes i have reservations about calling him by such a degrading name because he's the only one out of them who's intellgient enough to be considerate in class). the concept is simple, purely because they ARE noisyfuckers. in class, they'll sit and talk and talk and talk in crazy asian, so that anyone within a five meter radius of them is unable to concentrate or listen to what the teacher is saying.
Pearl [Iced] Tea: i'm sure many people know what this stuff is, but for anyone who has not yet met the craze that is pearl tea, i'm sure you'll be hooked into it soon. although i guess it is kind of dying down now anyway. conventional pearl tea consists of a cup of either green or black tea, with little, chewy black "pearls" in it. the "pearls" are actually little balls made from tapioca, and they make a really interesting addition to any drink. originally pearl tea outlets sold tea, as in the only drinks available were TEA. plain tea, or flavoured, such as peach flavoured tea, or mango flavoured tea. but these days every shop seems to have branched out into all sorts of drinks, like coffee and milky drinks, and also offer a variety of "toppings" besides just pearls; rainbow jelly, coconut jelly and sweet basil seeds are just a few. so in this case, i would say.. go NUTS! =D
Sharingan Kakashi: Sharingan Kakashi is the name of my fish. lol no prizes for guessing where i got his name from =P *ding ding ding* that's riiight.. he's a character from one of my favourite anime, Naruto! the copy ninja, hatake kakashi. in the show, kakashi [nicknamed "sharingan kakashi"] has the ability to copy other ninjas' techniques with his special sharingan eye, which is what prompted me to name my fish after him. my fish is a blackmoore [i.e. they're supposed to be black in colour]. i have another blackmoore who [this sounds really bizarre, and possibly even unbelievable, but i swear it DID happen!] began to change colour. it was a very gradual change at first - the scales on the bottom of his stomach faded from black to silvery-gold, then became yellowy-gold. the gold soon spread, and his black scales turned from, well.. black to gold. it was kind of freaky.. but i wouldn't trade him for the world =P he's been entirely gold for a while now, if anything he looks just like an ordinary orange goldfish - almost as though he was born orange rather than black, except that he has the characteristic bulgey eyes of a blackmoore.
Son: (also "My son") i have a tendency to call people "son", or "my son", for example: "hello, son! how's it going?" it's something i do say in person, but more frequently on msn or in emails. lately i've noticed a few people making weird faces on msn when i say it, so i'll explain. being quite a big fan of the simpsons, the majority of the things i say are derived from simpsons quotes. "son" is taken from the flaming moe episode - it begins with lisa having a sleepover party, and her giggly friends manage to jinx bart. bart runs to homer, who's watching tv, and attempts to get homer to say his name by writing messages in a notepad, so he can become un-jinxed. lol and of course homer refers to bart by every means under the sun except his name. "what is boy?" "whatever's the matter, my son?" "talk to me young man!" "say your name? why ever would i do that, my lad?" =P
Sunnybank: when i say sunnybank, i'm usually referring to sunnybank plaza, which is a shopping centre located in.. well.. sunnybank.. =P sunnybank [the suburb itself] is kinda like an "asian area", and if you ever want to go crazy asian hunting, or to play spot-the-aussie, you should consider heading to sunnybank plaza. it seems everytime i go out i wind up at sunnybank, most probably because when i go out, i go out to eat or drink =P, and i like to obtain eats and drinks from sunnybank plaza. the best drink place is the pearl tea shop just in front of hungry jacks.. do NOT, and i repeat, do NOT go to easyway!! they're EVIL!! >=(
TenTen: tenten is the name of my mouse.. or my former mouse.. *sigh* one day i woke up with the sudden urge to buy a mouse. it was an extremely spontaneous thing to do, and rather silly if you think about it, but i went ahead and did it anyway. [because hey, i'm the king of spontaneity!] i decided to name her tenten, because she was all black in colour, and her ears reminded me of the hairstyle of this particular naruto character, tenten =P [tenten in the show has her hair done up in two little balls, sort of like sailor moon style.. when my mouse had her ears pricked upright, it just reminded me so much of tenten the anime character]. unfortunately i had to give tenten away because uh.. hah.. my parents didn't know that i'd bought her, and it was becoming increasingly more difficult to keep her in secret. but rest assured she's in good hands now, as i gave her to carlos from high school [whose sister also has two other mice] =]
Three: [also "3", "3G"] 3 is that phone company that supposedly has been taking the world by storm of late. i'm here to warn you that 3 is evil.. EVIL!! everyone else that i know who's relocated their numbers to 3 also agrees with me now.. so why is 3 evil? well.. for starters, their customer service is excrutiatingly BAD. call their help line at any time and you'll be put through to some call centre where some indian person [and i'm NOT trying to be racist here] fields your call, but does nothing to help you because they have no idea what the hell is going on, or what the hell you're talking to them about, and also because they're practically impossible to understand with their apu nahasapeemapetalon accent. go into any one of their stores for help with the issue that you couldn't resolve over the phone, and the service attendants are less than willing to help you because they're paid on commission basis and don't give two hoots about you once they discover you're not there to buy a handset. but that aside, when you finally DO manage to get your handset working, you'll find that the reception is dodgy, the phone will have glitches and need to be repaired, and your messages are prone to lags worse than the jetlag you'd suffer after flying from antarctica to uzbekistan. so there you have it. of course, don't take my word for it. if you really, really, REALLY must indulge in a 3 phone, by all means.. go ahead and experience the craptacular-ness of it for yourself.. but don't say you weren't warned by the dictionary!! =P
Uncle Yenny: This is my retarded way of referring to my retarded self hah. I can't remember how it came about, but whatever the case, it's stuck around. Rest assured, I am NOT an uncle =P
Wiggly Dog, the: the Wiggly Dog is this gorgeous little chihuaha that lives a street away from me. i dubbed him the Wiggly Dog because he's built short and chubby, so when he moves he tends to wiggle =] my first encounter with the Wiggly Dog happened one afternoon as i was walking home from the bus stop. as i passed a house, this short, fat little dog came running at me. initially i thought he was going to jump around and bark at me like the idiot dogs that live next door to us, but instead he ran up to me and licked my toes lol =D the Wiggly Dog is extremely friendly, and i have never once heard him bark. According to his owner, he's ten years old and has recently had his back teeth taken out.
i prefer to use "Jeebers" when angry rather than saying "Jesus" or "God", however it is only a phrase that i use in typing.
ah well.. it's their loss! =P
anyway.. not long after i acquired sharingan kakashi [at the time, i hadn't named him yet], i noticed he too began to change colour. he was changing exactly like the first blackmoore had. he was like an exact copy of it! and hence the name, sharingan kakashi. =]
and so that's where "my son" was taken from. i call just about everyone my son, yes, even girls, so don't get offended if i happen to address you by that title one day.
