  • I just speak American English, so nothing too crazy. There’s the term fuckin’ a. It’s used by older generations I’d say. I’ve always just assumed the a stood for ass, which would be strange to censor ass after you said fuck. I recently looked into it and the a is for affirmative, and the term comes from military radio chatter. It basically means emphatically affirmative.

    Another old time one is the whole shiterie, Meaning the whole thing or collection.

    Another fun one is a brick shit house, meaning overly well built for what it’s used for.

    There’s also shit on a shingle aka sos, which was a really basic diner food consisting of gravy on toast.
