Old School Collab – Sk*nky

Here is a video collaboration I did with Sxephil about year ago.  I’m not sure he even aired it.. but I thought it would be fun to bring it back for all of you to see :-)

Show me some comment and rating love over at YouTube to help the video be seen :-)

    I thought skank was the past tense form of skunk. :mrgreen:
    So, if skank is being recycled, is it skankier, or skunkier?

    Skanky people are akin to that crowd some refer to as “tweakers.” It goes to intent. Some people will offer insults and rude remarks since they’re virtually hiding. You’re quite right about how anonymity gives certain types of ignorant people an opportunity to display their lack of finesse. Unfortunately we all are likely to know a few more sk*nky people than we want to know, regardless of what social class we’re in or think we’re in. Surely you come across as educated. Who can escape skanky people? I’ve known a few skanky people pretty high on the social register. Word etymology is something I consider essential because when you know the evolution of a word and all it’s shades of meaning, it makes life more full. The fact that you add your own charm to the subject is a plus. Some of us simply take you at face value and it’s a good face and good link to go come back to regularly. H.L. Mencken once said that no one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the public. It is kind of you to share your knowledge with the public. Some will be ungrateful and probably incorrigible. . I’m glad you’re thick skinned. :!:

    Hmm… about skanks. I can truly say that some of the most caring people I have ever known were some of these “skanks.” Everybody has their baggage; some wear it out in the open for the world to see. Others find the necessity to hide their self-perception behind a mask of “normalcy.” Leonard can probably explain it better. :roll:

    Dear Marina,
    You look very nice in your black dress decorated with a blue ribbon. No one should be so rude as to call you a skank. .You’re far too beautiful and your behavior is very modest. :grin:
    I hope you get well from your cold, soon. Get plenty of rest, take Vitimin C and drink warm beverages like tea. Also, dress warmly when you go outside. We’ve had cold, rainy weather recently, and colds are very contagious. I hope you will be well by summer! :smile:
    You used the title, “Broadcast from the past.” Is this an older video you decided to post, now? It looks like you have a cover on your sofa and to your left, I see a room that might be your kitchen. Did you set up a new shooting location for your videos? I got used to seeing you from your bed, or sometimes, sitting on a towel on your carpeted floor. Actually, I enjoy all your videos. :razz:

    There were lots of skanks in the city I grew up in.

    The skank word was used often, especially when a girl was talking bad about another girl. Actually the majority of the times I heard this word is when came out of a girls mouth.

    It’s a girly word.

    Talk about [ the pot calling the kettle black (alternate meaning)! ]

    Poem found in “Maxwell’s Elementary Grammar” school book copyright 1904:

    “Oho!’ said the pot to the kettle;
    “You are dirty and ugly and black!
    Sure no one would think you were metal,
    Except when you’re given a crack.”

    .

    “Not so! not so! kettle said to the pot;
    ” ‘Tis your own dirty image you see;
    For I am so clean -without blemish or blot-
    That your blackness is mirrored in me”

    It is sxephil who is a skanky!

    If you see a can that says “Inflammable” it means that the liquid inside can make fire or not? Because I think or hear that “in”- means no.

    If you are ever taken into a court “of law”, you can not be convicted, unless you have filed and provided false information. If you don’t file (because no law demands it), they can’t legally do anything to you.

    Hey Marina,

    I bought a DVD called Wallace & Gromit in The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005). In it there was a scene that went like this, blah blah blah “lets climb the [jacobs ladder] to paradise”. I was wondering, can you look up the meaning-origin of that term?

    Love Tony.

    Can you tell me the origin of the word Condominium? I live in the uk and we don’t have this word in our language. It sounds like an old word. I would be very interested to learn about it’s history. :smile:

  • CampKohler – Sacramento CA

    Condominiums are sprinkled on food to make them taste better. Compare to ingrediments, which are the basic components of a recipe.

    It’s true, I tell you.

  • CampKohler – Sacramento CA

    You mean [soporific] or [sortilege]. The curly brackets (braces) get you nothing here.

  • CampKohler – Sacramento CA

    WLIU, I don’t know if it has any meaning beyond that in electronics. A Jacob’s ladder is a very-high-voltage (enough to break down air by ionizing it) power supply equipped with two long electrodes arranged in a V shape with the narrow part at the bottom. Being that the narrow part is at the bottom, the spark will strike there and, because hot air rises, will move up the V until it reaches a point where the gap is too wide to maintain the arc and it extinguishes. Then, because the arc quits, the voltage recovers to the high level required to strike a new arc and the process repeats as long as power is applied. This gives the “BRZZZZP, BRZZZZP” sound and Frankensteinien light show that vintage science fiction movies liked to use because it is so easy and cheap to obtain. (Pity the poor suckers trying to listen to the radio nearby; the arc wipes out the entire radio spectrum while it’s on.)

    All you need is a neon sign transformer and some coat hangar wire, but I don’t want to give you any ideas. Needless to say, if you actually tried to climb one, you would go to hell, not heaven.

  • CampKohler – Sacramento CA

    I think you mean -un. In this case, -in means susceptable to. This is such a common misunderstanding that the word flammable was dreamed up to eliminate the confusion. I’m glad there is absolutely no confusion left over nowadays as a result. Nobody ever asks about inflammable any more. Nope, not one single question. Ever. Problem solved. For sure. Except for the odd trouble maker now and then. :mrgreen:

    Oops. Do you know how that term originated? In the U.S., a scrubber is 1) a scraping device you use to clean pots and pans and the like with, or 2) something that cleans unwanted matter from a gas stream, such as pollution from an exhaust stack.

    There is one skank that frequents the yard where my shop is. She rides a bycycle or walks in dragging a bundle of clothes and cadges cigarettes and sodas. She calls everyone sweetie or honey and is all smiles and giggles and walks around like she is somehow apart of everything. She is like a big gnat.

    She’s young now, but I wonder what will become of her when she is 80 (if she makes it that far).

    What is the origin of Retro?

    What other meanings (if any) does it have?

    Why does it appear in a term like Retrovirus. A virus that can re-write your DNA. It doesn’t seem to fit the other uses of the words, which normally refer to things that are out-dated, or old.

  • debusentel

    Its either [Pwned] or [Pwnd]. I have been constantly seeing/hearing it as of late. Pretty sure its the first spelling though.

    Through context of the word I’m pretty sure it comes from “Owned”

    Simple. Buy gold. Pay the market value based upon weight – stay away from any deals claiming to give collector value added worth. It bears more interest growth than the bank, anyway. Keep your gold in a safe deposit box or home safe.
    Don’t keep more in the bank than you need to spend on bills in one monthly cycle. If IRS freezes your assets, they only get one month’s worth.
    Do not incorporate your business – do a DBA.
    The only thing they can go after is your domicile (if owned by the bank) or your car (if owned by the bank). Since the bank owns it, they can’t snatch it from you.
    Keeping money in the bank, except to pay bills, isn’t doing a thing for you – but the bank gets to use your money at little or no interest payable to you, plus all their goofy fees. It just makes you more vulnerable to predators.
    Do not tell your attorney about any assets you have, other than those in the bank – ever! They’re bigger predators than the IRS! Make it clear if he/she doesn’t win your case, he loses any fees he might reasonably expect to be paid. Do not allow him to bifurcate his fees separately from any court actions being pursued. He gets one modest retainer up front and nothing else until completion. An honest attorney understands this. If you hear anything else from an attorney about additional fees, get a new attorney – and demand that your retainer be returned immediately. Under no circumstances should he receive any monies, other than the modest retainer, until rulings are made by the court.
    Umm…there are more things you need to know, but that’s most of it. :mrgreen:

    In the Book of Genesis, chapter 28, Jacob lays down to take a nap. During his nap, he has a dream of a ladder that goes all the way up to Heaven. Jacob has a little chat with God, and they discussed some stuff about Jacob’s descendants (the Hebrews or Jews.) Quite a bit happened there under Jacob’s Ladder.

    Hi hs4mm, I was aware of that when I saw the article this morning and there were only five votes.

    I’m not so sure about being meaningless. Being able to vote multiple times to an apathetic voter does not mean anything, but the voter who exerts their vote whether once, or many times is still shows an effort. So, in the end it is all relative.

    Now, if only one person on the board had the privilege of receiving multiple votes, then of course, that would be a meaningless poll.

    That’s bizarre! These are strictly linguistic contexts that the words are being used in. It should have no bearing on the title’s offensiveness. Don’t you agree?

    That seems to be the nature of big business. All black and white, no gray area. Decisions made en masse for the long term economic gain. From a purely financial perspective, it makes sense. All decisions are made at the top echelons and are made beforehand. Lower levels simply follow the established procedures which are aimed at efficiency and conservativeness. This sacrifices the individual customer-service, but the long term plusses outweigh the long term minuses. Quantity over quality.

    Let me rephrase my statement. If the word “fuck” appears in the title of a linguistic work (whatever the format) which deals to some degree (usu. largely) with that word, it ought not to be taken as offensive because it is being studied philologically and is not being used in its usual form.

    I am happy to say I live a skank-free lifestyle.

    Interesting word origin, altho I’d say I have a slightly different take on the definition of skank. For one, money or prostitution doesn’t necessarily need to be involved. A skank commonly refers to being a slut with trashy tendencies, as in one level below just being a slut. A slut is a woman who likes sex a lot and does it often, whereas a skank is the same thing, but with a slightly torn-up or trashy look to her. Skanks also have questionable hygiene habits.

    What’s funny is that I occassionally accompany my girl to some of her auditions in L.A. (she’s a model/actress with an agency that reps her for commercials and print), and whenever it’s an audition for a ‘sexy woman’ role, there is usually a bevy of skanks that shows up. It’s like a strip club across the street just let out or something. I’ve noticed that a common fashion among the skank demographic is wearing high heels, a short skirt, no leggings, and an ankle tattoo or two. Yep, the ankle tattoo is very popular with the skanks out there. It’s like their secret sign, I think…

    Even tho I joke about it, for the most part I don’t care for all the names women into sex are given and all the judgements that are made about them. It’s only sex, after all, something very natural and fulfilling to your average adult. Altho men are known to have the stronger sex drive, women are actually a little more sensitive down there and experience more intense orgasms, so it makes perfect sense to me that quite a few women out there are into sex. They sure beat the women who aren’t into sex, in my opinion, as women not into sex tend to be frigid, shrewish, and uptight. Nothing quite makes a woman so unhappy as her needs not getting met in the bedroom. I sincerely doubt that is anything Marina has ever had to worry about, tho. Peace, Errin : )

    Marina,

    Are you sure? It is Beef-O’Reilly that has no ads at all. Here’s what I am seeing:

    First, I can see three kinds of ads on YT:

    1) on the upper right of video’s page
    2) embedded while video plays
    3) After the video plays, a half-screen ad inside the video screen (below the share and replay buttons);
    4) After the video plays, a one-sixth-screen ad inside the video screen (below the share and replay buttons);

    A) d’k-p’ch has (1,2,3)
    B) sk’ky has (1,2,4)
    C) In Jail has (1,2,4)
    D) Beef-O’Reilly has no ads at all.

    Hello Marina! You explained how ‘x’ at the bottom of a letter or greating card came to mean ‘a kiss’. How did an ‘o’ at the bottom of a letter or greating card come to mean ‘a hug’? Thanks and keep the great lessons coming!

  • hs4mm

    PS: Valentine’s-O’Reilly does not have any ads either — so could be all HFW-O’Reily videos do not have ads because they are made by a “commercial entity” (viz., FoxNews). Also, I have been thinking some more — I do not really know the full context — I can only state what I am seeing now in regards to ads: it could be that YouTube only temporarily removed ads in the video you are referring to.

    I would like to find out where does the expression “stay put” come from.

    Marina,

    …. In a world full of skanks, both male and female, the more pertinent/relevent question is do I know anyone who isn’t a skank. So I would be surprised if I didn’t know any skanks. All are skanky and fall short of the glory of God.

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/bsomebody13 bsomebody

    I’m with ya on that, John. :cool:

  • errin

    Do skanks even bother with dinner and/or a date? It’s not like you need to impress her to get her into bed. Just whip it out at any given moment, and the rest will fall in place. Skanktacular!

  • errin

    Thanks for THAT visual… not that I have anything against hermaphrodites. I certainly hope for your sake that you are endowed a little bigger than a clitoris. lol

  • greatestpotential

    Sure. She wants dinner, you got to feed her, and feed her regularly. Dessert is cleaning up together in some greasy hole in the wall dive gas station restroom in some crime ridden area of the city. It doesn’t matter what the sign says- MEN, WOMEN, UNISEX.

    Fear not, for thou art confusing skanks for sluts. I suppose it is fair to say that sexual promiscuity is normaly rather healthy–meaning high, not good for you or society–if not advanced by the ease with which social interaction can occur today, but mere promiscuity is not the active ingredient in a skank, or in a slut.

    A slut is an attractive or hot girl who is promiscuous and wild, but not necessarily aggressive.
    A skank is an unattractive, nasty-looking, trashy girl who is promiscuious and usually aggressive in establishing carnal contact.

    So, unless everyone you know is both ugly and promiscuous, then it is not true that everyone you know or see is a skank. Maybe a slut, or mimbo, but not a skank. However, it it is true they are all skanks, then god bless you but you need to move into a better [zipcode].

    No it’s just an old reworded quote from the Bible.

  • hotfor_hotforwords

    So, firstly, just to be clear, you’re maintaining your absolute statement about the state of universal human sexual promiscuity?

    And, secondly, in your view, is skankdom the only sector of humanity wherefrom our myriad shortcomings yield no forgiveness?

  • http://www.youtube.com/xxstokjrj1xx John

    firstly, A certain someone, when asked ” good sir what must i do to be saved/forgiven, His answer was, why do you call me good, no one is good except God. This statement addressed the overall condition of man in all aspects, not just promiscuity.

    secondly, forgiveness does not depend on the condition of condoning and promoting bad behaviors, actually it’s the acknowledgment and acceptance that there are better alternatives to the offending behavior.

  • big ed

    Right on, bro! We are living in the 21st Century and yet some people are just so ignorant and two-faced, they still don’t see the LIGHT and continue to pass on the same old school hatred & double standards that prevent the human race from coming together in wordwide harmony. Besides some obvious differences, men and women both have the same urges and behaviors, from what I’ve seen. For far too long, society at large has demonized the “fairer sex” in an effort to prevent them from gaining their freedom. And the worst part is even to this day,too many girls are still being brainwashed into thinking there’s something wrong w/ them if they dare give in to the same carnal desires that boys are encouraged to pursue as soon as they reach puberty. As far as I’m concerned, men can be skanks too, it all depends on how much or how little self-respect they have for themselves.

    Interesting that the only people Jesus ever called names were the religious hypocrites, the ones that commanded people to live one way , yet they themselves lived another. He called them whitewashed tombs…clean on the outside , but filled with dead men’s bones. The people who were considered “sinners”, he never addressed harshly, or in a derogatory, demeaning way, regardless of their “sins”. He always said…the Son of man has come to seek and to save.
