Advice to a guy for meeting a girl....

Bang on means you hit the nail on the head,bang on.

And I'm sure you'd love middle England. It's just like it is in LOTR, but without the giant talking trees. (unfortunatly, that'd be quality)

I suppose if that depends on what your drinking... My mom used to talk to giant trees in the Redwoods in Middle California, when I was young.

I'm learning English slang...

Bang on
going to the bog
tha'd be quality

what else ? this is fun.

since this thread is 4 months old maybe we can use the bandwidth for English lessons

LOL

four months old or no, I want to know if he went for it.

Does he still come around?

Doh, there should be penalties for leaving people hanging.

I left him a question on his profile. Yes he is still active and around.

Other English slang all Americans should know...

Lift = Elevator

Off Licence = Liquor Store (important when traveling to England, first time I went there I thought that the business lost their liquor licence for some reason and didn't go in)

Pint = glass of beer

Steak and Kidney Pie = Botulism

Haggis = Ipecac

When traviling to Birmingham England, it's important to bring Sharron Ozborne with you, as no one in Birmingham actually speaks English, I am not sure anyone knows what language that is, but English it is not.

Bangers and Mash = Sausage and potatoes

You people are hilarious! Thank you so much for all the information! I am so ecstatic right now, you all have no idea. It took me 20 minutes just to calm down and be able to read and post a reply! I wish there was a video of the last week for me to show you all as to how I was lead back here.

I kept seeing replies showing up under the total for "my profile", but I could not figure out where from. Then, just today I saw that my BTS points went way up for SOME reason. Then, just about a half an hour ago, I remember I got a profile message and BANG! I finally looked through all my threads and saw this one was being used! Amazing.

So yes. The term has ended but funny story is that I even had ANOTHER class with her! Great but then I found out she had guys hovering over her 24/7 and she seemed a bit immature. I did try talking to her but she was very unenthusiastic about anything. However, after christmas I had to take a Physics class over again and there she was again. I did end up talking to her a little but nothing was there.

This current Spring semester:

I am currently trying to talk to another girl and she is way more responsive than the fall semester girl. She is a physics major too, so I think I will be seeing lots of her which is great. I am so happy about that!

EDIT: BTW, it seems this thread did not show up under "my ATS" threads list. wierd.


If I missed any questions, please tell me. I would love to answer!

Thank you all! Your wisdom has given so much confidence.

Do like they do in the pornos: tell her that it's either you or the crusty old professor.
