Hey Rick,
Theres an ole boy from down your way that I think the same thing about-SRV. :cool:
Absolutely, beevee14! He had fairly recently beaten a drug problem and seemed to be happy and on track.
Congrats on your success Marina. It’s always funny to see your videos – and on top of it I get to learn something, which is unusual for time spent on YouTube! I hope you are enjoying your work as much as the rest of the people on the internet do.

My dear and HOT for words teacher, a friend of mine asked me about the origin of the word Punk’d, that we heard for the first time on the Ashton Kutcher show, If I writed something wrong forgive it, as I’m Brazilian and learned the English language all by myself I’m never sure about how good is my skill on it…
Anxious waiting for response…

hi teacher :) best teacher ever! so i was haveing an ice cream sundae and i thought it was ice cream sunday lol and wondered why it was sunday but i guess its sundae so can u tell us why its ice cream sundae :) thank you
In the early 20th century in America, people would go to soda fountains for dates and socializing so much that preachers started complaining about it. Enough that there was a bit of a prohibition on Sunday for getting a soda. One soda ‘jerk’ put ice cream in a bowl and proclaimed you,” can have it on Sunday!” The clergy finally went on to something else, and they changed the name to ‘sundae’ out of respect.
BTW: The word jerk comes from soda jerk. They had to Jerk the handles for soda to come out. Since this was not a job demanding much skill or had much of a future, it gradually took on its present meaning.
2-for-1, baby! Kudos, M? :?: :???: ;-)
cool think you (kudos)
It’s final. Two Rivers is the REAL birthplace of the Ice Cream Sundae!
It’s official – Two Rivers is recognized by the Wisconsin State Historical Society as the REAL birthplace of the ice cream sundae. There is a Sundae Week every summer, and the city gathers in Central Park for an old fashioned band concert and ice cream social during the annual Sundae Thursday.
As the legend goes, a glass salesman writing up an order for Berners’ canoe-shaped ice cream bowls misspelled Sunday as Sundae. Others believe the name was spelled as it is because it was considered rude to name the ice cream treat for a day of worship.
I got my info from the History channel. I believe they even mentioned Two Rivers. Weren’t they in some kind of an argument with another place on who was first?

Hey Evan, can you hear music?
Yes, I can hear music. That’s a leading question; what’s the punch line? :???:

[KIT AND KABOODLE]
which made me think of:
[TIT FOR TAT]
which made me wonder what’s a tat and if you can get tits with them where can I get some?
Tatting is a form of needlework; [tit for tat] is just a folk witticism noting that it’s almost always a woman’s hobby. :razz:
Oh, I get it. Nipple piercing.
I like your calendar of events, Marina.
Marina,
The speed of page loads has been up consistently for at least a day now. Is this only because of your tweaks — or did you also get something changed at GoDaddy?
It could also be that the speed improvement is coming from the 5.8 upgrade.
Hi! I have a couple of requests :mrgreen: :arrow: [wee] and [witty]
thanks! kisses my dear teacher! ;-)
As Bob can tell you, [wee] is Scots dialect for “small”, as in Wee Doch an Doris

You can also ask Bob about [witty], or just scan these pages for his comments. :grin:
What is the origin of [Cinergy]
Hey hows it going?
can you define the origin-CLUB- like party club and so on.
Thanks
Very nice lesson, please tell me, what are the origins of [scimitar] [viking] [berserker] [werewolf] i would so very much like to know their origins.
Marina,
The deciding game of a three-game series between baseball teams is often called the [rubber game]…what is the origin of this phrase? I read somewhere that the phrase was originally used by bridge players, but I cannot find anything more…
thanks.
hey Marina! you’re sooo hot :D
what i want to know, where is the word [Renaissance] from and does it also exist in america /in american history (you know, cause of Columbus, founding the USA etc.)
thank you!
renaissance means rebirth in Italian :grin:
Procrastinate
Define the origin..Please…But don’t hurry……
What is the origin of the term [scape goat]
I would like to know the history of the phrase [the whole nine yards] – as in, “he was very thorough… he went the whole nine yards!”
I agree, dantebucci. The origin of this phrase might make a very interesting lesson. I’ve heard a couple different possibilities but it’s hard to know which, if any of them, may be the true origin.
One person said that the bullet belts loaded into American fighter planes in WW2 were 27 feet (nine yards) long and if you ran out of ammunition in a dogfight it meant you’d gone [the whole nine yards] to bring down your opponents.
Another possibility was that a cement mixer truck could hold nine yards of concrete (yards being used as a measure of volume here, like gallons only much larger), so if you needed all the cement or concrete that could fit in one of these trucks, they’d pour [the whole nine yards]. I have definitely heard of concrete being measured in yards, so this might be the one. But I don’t know how much concrete that really is, or what the capacity of a cement mixer really is. :sad:
So I have no idea whether either of these stories are true. Who knows, it could be something else entirely.
HOTFORWORDS must investigate!

Peas in science
Pea
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For other uses see PEA.
Pea
Peas are contained within a pod
Pea plant: Pisum sativum
Scientific classification
Kingdom: Plantae
Division: Magnoliophyta
(unranked): eudicots
Order: Fabales
Family: Fabaceae
Subfamily: Faboideae
Tribe: Vicieae
Genus: Pisum
Species: P. sativum
Binomial name
Pisum sativum
L.
A pea is most commonly the small spherical seed or the seed-pod of the legume Pisum sativum.[1] Each pod contains several peas. Although it is botanically a fruit,[2] it is treated as a vegetable in cooking. The name is also used to describe other edible seeds from the Fabaceae such as the pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan), the cowpea (Vigna unguiculata), and the seeds from several species of Lathyrus.
P. sativum is an annual plant, with a life cycle of one year. It is a cool season crop grown in many parts of the world; planting can take place from winter through to early summer depending on location. The average pea weighs between 0.1 and 0.36 grams.[3] The species is used as a vegetable – fresh, frozen or canned, and is also grown to produce dry peas like the split pea. These varieties are typically called field peas.
The wild pea is restricted to the Mediterranean basin and the Near East. The earliest archaeological finds of peas come from Neolithic Syria, Turkey and Jordan. In Egypt, early finds come from c. 4800-4400 BC
Pea flowers In the mid-1800s, Gregor Mendel’s observations of pea pods led to the principles of Mendelian genetics, the foundation of modern genetics.
[edit] Etymology
According to etymologists, the term was taken from the Latin pisum and adopted into English as the noun pease (plural peasen), as in pease pudding. However, by analogy with other plurals ending in -s, speakers began construing pease as a plural and constructing the singular form by dropping the “s”, giving the term “pea”. This process is known as back-formation.
The name marrowfat pea for mature dried peas is recorded by the OED as early as 1733. The fact that an export cultivar popular in Japan is called Maro has led some people to assume mistakenly that the English name marrowfat is derived from Japanese.

I’d like to request [Motherboard]
Motherboard and daughterboard for the names of printed circuit boards that accept and plug into another, respectively, have been in use since the ’70s. Where they were first used and by whom is probably not publicly documented well enough to allow the origin to be determined. Even if someone used the terms back then, they would not know if they were the first or others had used them first.
Marina, I was wondering on the iTunes podcasts, why this and episodes before “Big Words aren’t up there.
Also…
I failed my History test!!! They said that Amazon women cut off their LEFT breast not their right!!! They also said G.O.L.F stands for Gentlemen Only, Ladies (may) Follow. What the heck!!
:cry: ( You know I’m joking right?)
Today, June 13 is my first year anniversary of being subscribed here to HotForWords and on YouTube.com/HotForWords. I know many of you have been subscribed here much earlier than that, like Bob, buzzword, aLx and many more :smile:
Even though I have been subscribed for only one year, I saw Marina’s first video way back in March 02, 2007. Amazing how quickly time flies when you’re having fun. :grin:
Awesome! It sure does fly!
i saw marina long before she started making videos at this site.
Yeah, it’s been a lot of fun…now if only I could follow her example by working obsessively on MY dream project, and have loads of fun doing it while making enough money to quit the day job! (I don’t know whether to :lol: or :cry: )
Maria imitating Marina at the end of this recent video on POPTUB!
She is pretty bad at it, but hey… if it’s free publicity for hotforwords, I’ll take it. :-)
Congratulations!
Congratulations.And I hope that you reach more achievements. :mrgreen:
dude, meant to get back to you sooner.
what’s with the german?:D
hey, you gonna watch the fight tomorrow, klitschko vs. chagayev?
Congratulations Marina!
You’re one of the best people I know (out of many),
and you deserve the best!
I love congratulating you on all of your successes and I know I’ll have many more opportunities from now on to further congratulate you on even bigger achievements.
I would like to request the word [secret]
If Possible owo

Hey! I was wondering if you could tell me the origin of the word: [Infidel]. Thank you very much!
congratulations marina! thats quite an achievement! :mrgreen:
i was wondering where the word [snack] came from?
luv your new avatar Miss :lol:
tnx for being such a special contributor :grin:
to the HFW site :oops:
:cool: B.B. ;-)
hey.:)
don’t know if that is of any interest to you … there’s a verb “snacken” in the low german dialects, and in scandinavian languages as well. it means “to talk“.
o/
uh. wtf. why did my arm got cut off? damnit. o/
looks like a fucking hitler salute. marina, can you change that? thx.
un-fucking-real. what the hell. seems like \ is not possible at all. why is that.
\\oJust trying this out…
OK, here’s what to do:
"[code]\\\\\\\\\\\[/code]"instead of [] use
<and>The first four backslashes never display :-)
yeah, well. maybe it’s to do with xml or something.

Can you please find or tell me the meaning and origins of the word [LUA]. It’s my last name and I don’t know what it means or where it comes from.

I know that lua, in portuguese means moon :grin:
Really? cool thanx :razz:

Not exactly a “word” request but more of a question…
When, where and how did English originate? If derived from Latin etc; When, where, which and how was the first language formed and evolved to hundreds of different languages used today?
Yeah, and do it all in a two-minute video. :razz:
What is the origin of LIFE? :D
Is there intelligent life on YouTube?
The cereal? Purina, I think. Or maybe you mean the board game or the magazine.
Evan is right, xcentriq. These are great questions but they can’t be answered in a single lesson.
To understand the answers to all 8 of your questions requires at least a semester-long college-level course in linguistics, and probably more than that. I spent months learning about this in a classroom environment and we barely scratched the surface. Perhaps it would be easier if you narrowed your focus to a single question.
If this subject is intriguing to you, I’d also like to suggest doing some internet searching on subjects like:
historical linguistics,
Baugh and Cable’s “A History of the English Language,”
William Labov,
development of speech,
proto-Indo-European,
emergence of civilizations (for the ‘how’ and ‘where’ questions), and
physical anthropology (for the ‘when’ questions).
Best of luck. :smile: It’ll be interesting to see what you can find out.
Robert Claiborne’s Our Marvelous Native Tongue is an enlightening and enjoyable read also. :smile:
What is Evan right about? Evan is just agreeing with my question.
I don’t want a full lesson on the history of language, just a brief summary so I can get a rough idea. I don’t really care but it should be interesting for me and all of Marina’s fans.
This shall be a challenge for Marina.
right ON
[BEG] :oops: :!: [SLAVE]
:lol: :-)
It can be done, and in under 3 minutes, as seen in this video here :arrow:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RmlQLnDKqH4&feature=related
I stand corrected.
OK, here’s a thumbnail sketch:
After the Romans pulled out of Britain in 410 AD, Angles, Saxons (ca. 450 AD), Vikings (790-1066), Danes (800s), Norman French (1066) all invaded Britain, driving the native Britons into Wales and Scotland. English is what happened when these invaders settled down and tried to communicate with each other, mixing their various languages together in the process. Later, as their society and government became more complex, they borrowed terms from Latin and Greek to describe the concepts they needed — since the ancients, with their higher level of civilization, had already developed the necessary vocabulary.
The Proto-Indo-European language supposedly spoken 6000 years ago in what is now Ukraine is thought to be the ancestor of the European and North Indian languages. Thus languages as diverse as English, Russian, and Hindi have been shown to have a common structure and vocabulary. But a few European languages — Basque and Hungarian, notably — are unrelated. :cool:
PS There are a few of us left who speak the old language of Britain before the development of English, that looks like this:
A geiriau bach hen ieithoedd diflanedig
Hoyw yng ngenau dynion oeddynt hwy
A thlws i’r glust ymh mharabl plant bychain
Ond tafod neb ni elw arnynt mwy.
(“And little words of languages now vanished
Were once alive and danced on human tongues
Sweet to the ear in parables of children
And songs that centuries have left unsung.”)
– from Cofio (“Remembering”) by Waldo Williams,
translation by Evan Owen :cool:
I was waiting for Marina to do a video on it :sad:
About Welsh??? :razz:
Seriously, xcentriq, I know what you meant. We get a lot of this kind of comment from new people (“I was waiting for Marina to do a video on it”). But Marina has, according to one TA, over a thousand word requests already on her list; you’d have a long wait :sad: . After awhile, you’ll get a feel for what requests she will and will not accept, and [history of English] is not likely to be one she’ll do. (However, she might surprise us; and the requests and topics that get discussed a lot are often the ones she’ll choose. So the people who have tried to answer your questions are actually increasing the chance that Marina will do a video for you. :smile: ) In the meantime, please note she has a book coming out in August; perhaps she has some answers for you in there. ;-)
People who come here expecting attention from Marina are apt to get frustrated — she has over 200,000 subscribers, after all. But those who get into discussions with fellow students are the ones who have fun and keep coming back. :grin:
Pob hwyl / cheers,
Evan
Congratulations Marina :razz:
The best teacher in the world!!!! :grin:
Congratulations HotForWords!
Hi Marina! I would like to know the origin of [rainbow]. I understand why “rain” would be part of the term, but why “bow”? Thank you!
‘Cause it’s shaped like the bow that shoots arrows.
Compare French arc-en-ciel. :smile:
Congratulations, Marina! What’s next? Will you be leaving us lowly denizens of the internet for a permanent place among the stars of the Hollywood stratosphere? :cry:
:smile:
Heck no!!!! Those celebs are my marketing team!
EXACTLY!! :grin:
You said a lot there, Marina.
You got a little mention at murraynewlands.com. One of your students mentioned RPG to me. Anyhow I asked her if she wanted more “views” for her Y/T vids. & she said yes (whoda’ thunk). I mentioned that I’d ask you for a little advice on how to make her, non specific, comedy show more, “YouTube friendly”. She’s so sweet & works hard on her (weekly) vids. Anyhow I don’t want to be a pest & ask anything for myself, nor do I want to be mentioned… but sometime, when you are not too busy, could you shoot her a note, email, suggestion(s), from your expertice on said subject.
You can check her out at her channel. I’m thinking that she’d listen to you… sorry if this sounds like an imposition, it’s not, although it may sound unusual. Did I mention she seems quite well off & don’t imagine she does this stuff to make $$
Marina, you’re still my favorite Youtuber & I still watch intently. I enjoy all your successes & cheer your milestones.
Oh! of all the twitpics you’ve posted, this one is my favorite. It speaks to me of your love for the dear ladies in the pic, but shouts of your future… says to me “I don’t fit in here, I have to find the place on earth I was meant to be”… the story is still being written… it’s a good read.
jimi hendrix plays piano and violin rare footage 1967
[VIOLIN]…the jimi hendrix experience in 1967 fooling around in the studio. see jimi playing piano and violin. i particularly like when jimi pretends to play the violin with his teeth.hehe. the man had a great sense of humour. mabye this video was an attempt to record some promo film for a song as jimi is seen singing along with the tracks. the songs featured are Burning of the midnight lamp and The wind cries mary. very rare black and white footage. :razz:
That was neat to see, leonard. Thanks!
Hi leonard,
Jimi Hendrix was buried about a mile from where I grew up in Renton, Washington State. Thieves repeatedly stole his gravestone, until they put in something more substantial. :smile:
“FOREVER in our Hearts”…how ya doing :?:
Hi Marina :)
I would like to request the word [lummox]. This word came to mind as I called a few drivers that (among other things) as I was coming home from work.
Thanks!
If you divide your total YT income by 200,000,000, what does the cents-per-view come out to?
Marina, my teacher,
Since it’s baseball season, I would like to request the word [bunt]. When a batter sticks his bat out and tries to hit the ball with his bat parallel to the ground, without swinging it, he is said to be trying to bunt the ball. I’m a lifelong baseball fan and never thought to trying to figure out what it meant until I discovered your videos. You’re flabbergasting genius!!! Wow, where did that word [flabbergasting] come from?? Flab???
Gas??? Both are jobs for “hotforwords.”
Your admiring student,
Wordcure
:razz: Congratulations Marina my dear teacher it is totally awesomer that you have achieved so much in such a short amount of time, we love your work and who you are teacher so keep up the good work keep doing what youre doing we love you the way you are and dont ever change the things that make you our dear teacher. Good luck and good fortune for the next 200 M; We will be watching!! Tell that naughty sister of yours she needs to be nicer to you after all look what youve been able to achieve for the both of you. Please congratulate Nerd Girl for me also, I think Nerd Girl is a bit of a sleeper hit the super nerds like me love her too dear teacher!! :cool:
Hello Marina,
No graphs of the U.S. or dancing?
Congratulations.
What’s that saying?- “If I only had a nickel…”
200 Million Video Views!!!!! Congratulations Marina!! It’s all about exposure :) and words of course. ;) The sky is the limit! Go Marina, go go go go go go
Congratulations Marina on another milestone
and many more to come. :smile:
Loved the video footage.
whole numbers are so passé.
… and transient integers are so fleeting and round.
scientific notation (2. X 10^8) would have been more scholarly.
Totally! Darnit!
:-) Weave some stitches…that shoulds {sew, sooo or soul and sole of it}….. “[darnit]“
can you find the origin of the word [shop] please?
[Shop] derives from the Shoppe region of Bulgaria, famous for its Shoppe dances. These lively “narodni tantsi” were the highlight of the festivities accompanying the opening of new malls — hence the association of Shoppe with what we now call “shopping.”
It’s true, I tell you. :mrgreen:
thanks!
See, Bob? SOMEBODY appreciates my puns! :razz:
I would like to request the word [chad] as in “hanging chad”. How did these little punch-outs in computer cards get this name?
[chad] would be interesting. :grin: Happy you’re at 200 million views. I’d be curious what that bandwidth cost Youtube to deliver. Once you knew that you could add a percentage figure as profit, split that with Youtube and self-define the revenue you’ll earn from the web presence as well as from the print products. I will always buy your canned book smell spray because I know it’s bookworm friendly. :mrgreen: and I know your fans love you for just being you, Marina. But we’re also happy to $hare with you… after what you’ve shared with us. By the way, your snotty sister needs to be known online at a site called PARTY GIRL (Eonline I think). If you do a Hotforwords search there…NOTHING! And we KNOW that trampy sister of yours IS a PARTY GIRL!!!!!!
http://www.eonline.com/uberblog/hwood_party_girl/index.html
They went with “hanging Chad” because “hanging Niger” sounded too much like a lynching. :roll:
Camp, Bob, have I gone too far over the top? :???:
You’ll find out when something unpleasant happens to you Sudanly.
I didn’t mean to sound Mali-cious! :oops:
I wish I had a Guinea for every one of your fowl puns I’ve read. :razz:

Miss M you said you snuck Gorby on the plane and he went through x-ray. You’ll know when he has had to much when he starts to glow in the dark or develops two tails. :lol:

BTW Cap, hope you’ve been staying out of the rain. We have been getting some pretty serious precip up here. I can just barely keep up with cutting the grass.
I know what you mean. I would like to be her bag handler and carry Gorby in his bag. :mrgreen:
Okay, I’m not EVEN gonna go there…. :roll:
We have been getting some storms about every afternoon because of the heat and the humidity. So I have to cut mine once a week any way. I cut even in the rain if it isn’t lightening. It feels good. I have a

Hmmm. I’m getting a distinct feeling of deja vu, like I’ve already seen this comment.
Hey PK9 whaaaaassssuuuppp. I need some help with some coyotes around my place. :lol: They moved in about a year ago and now they have grown in pack size. We have been told just to shoot them by Game Wardens as they are a danger to our little animals. So now you need to ask Marina or Jack to get you a special colored border to show you are a TA. :cool: Wish you all the best Kent. ;-)

What? Hey, wait a minute. You don’t have a colored border, so why do I have to get one? Is that like the sign you put on the car that says, “student driver” but it’s really for the new TA? Okay just jivin’. Good to hear from you (whasssuuuuuup).
Sounds like you’re in a pickle, Mike.
They used to put out poisoned meat here on the West Coast, in an old tire hung from a fencepost, but it kills every carnivorous critter for miles: hawks, buzzards, eagles, falcons, foxes, raccoons, crows, seagulls, skunks, badgers, you name it. That ain’t the way. Now I can’t claim to know what’s best for the place where you live (the surrounding lands, that is) because I’ve never been there, but here are my general thoughts.
On the one hand, coyotes and other medium-sized predators like foxes and bobcats are the first sign of an ecosystem that’s coming back into its natural state of balance. It means small game is abundant, which in turn indicates stable plant communities and waterways. Pat yourself on the back, that’s gotta be a good thing.
On the other hand, there are a lot more livestock management problems to consider if coyotes are even in the picture, as you pointed out. So you’ll have to decide whether it’s more important to have a healthy ecosystem or free-range livestock. If the coyotes were to get “surgically removed,” the animals that would nornally be their prey (rodents, mostly) will surely overpopulate.
Stuff starts to slide in weird ways when a balanced system gets thrown out of whack like that. The rabbits reproduce like, well, like rabbits. Mice are pretty similar, so in a warm climate it’s not unreasonable to anticipate exponential growth when the stress of predation is suddenly removed from their population. They can get really hungry, too.
Often, chemical rodent poisons and 30-30 rounds are the cheapest short-term solution but the local ecosystem suffers over the long haul, and the damage is usually reflected on the landscape and any plant and animal species which should be native to it as a result. Poisons eventually find their way into the innocent members of the habitat area like the birds, fish, amphibians and reptiles, as everything downstream is usually affected. But you already knew that.
So you’re in a pickle, my friend. Kinda tough when the costs come into play, as I’m sure you’re aware. My advice is to find a way to take as few coyotes as possible while you focus on improving livestock security and getting some cage traps so any captured animals can be relocated or neutered by Fish and Game… Yeah, I know I’m dreaming–there’s no funding for stuff like that, and they probably just shoot ‘em.
Just the same, if you can figure out a way to let them do their thing out in the wild (if there is any, that is), there’ll be a lot less rodents in the county. That means less fleas and ticks, also. That’s my 2 cents. Good luck with that. [][]

dude, capman does have a colored border, like red. it’s not an indication of t.a. status. having a colored border actually indicates that the individual is nothing but trouble and should be avoided. you should avoid anyone with a colored border.
His border looks black on my PC. Do I have to go look at it on the Mac before you start laughing, “Made you look!” or can I just say I did and leave it at that?
Who said chimps can see color anyway? That’s not in the text…
Which is not to say that a plain border indicates harmlessness… :twisted:
The city :mrgreen: [slicker] and intelligentsia…hard economics…by(buy) the book(‘)em…my two cents and good luck(manergers) :mrgreen: :???: ;-)
Great advice, Kent. There’s usually trouble to be had by tampering with nature, like what happened when alien species were introduced and then got out of control,especially in vulnerable ecosystems like Pacific Islands.
The best way to conserve a healthy ecosystem is the same as the best way to conserve a healthy penis – just leave it alone – don’t fuck with it. :lol:
i’m serious. capman’s border is red, mine is purple. i think james has a color, alex has yellow. i forget who else has colored borders. you better get your eyes or monitor checked. my eyes are just fine.
<— as in Mr Green :mrgreen:
ya, it’s either yellow or orange. either way, it fits — i’m a little sunshine, ain’t i? 0:)
<– Fuchsia :shock:
Nice link, thanks buzz. This is a detail that wasn’t adequately covered in the primate studies for my program, although the bright coloration on mandrills and vervets gives pretty strong clues about color vision in some old-world primates, now that I think about it a bit.
Okay, the colored borders come up nice and bright on the Mac, but for some reason my PC doesn’t register them at all. They’re all black and there’s nothing wrong with the monitor. That does it, I’m getting rid of that P(iece of) C(rap). It’s probably ten years old anyway.
Now remind me who was it made reference to a “bunch of flamingos trying to out-pink each other?” :razz: Typical ape behavior, nein?
have you tried any acme products?
I had one of those rocket sleds once but I forgot to tie myself on. It wasn’t pretty, I can tell you that. Oregon almost declared war, but ended up settling out of court. :cool:
i had a rocket sled to. worked fine until i got to pennsylvania. i got a $1000 fine for each construction zone i flew through.
Wow! 200mil. That’s a lot. I mean, really a tremendous amount of influence. Canned rats! Lady M. Awesome job!
I’m getting a big bunch of NADA on YT :x
[I would like to request the word- "CARICATURE". Thanks! ;-) ]
CONGRATULATIONS, DEAR TEACH!!!!!
Wow! What is there to say? I’m proud and happy for you beyond words, Marina. What was your life like 3 or 4 years ago, and today…it must be overwhelming sometimes.
I just want to add my thanks to you for envisioning HFW and and allowing us the privilege of being a small part of your life. You educate us, entertain us, and naughtify us as no one else could. You make me feel special every time I’m here.
Continued success, Sweet Teach. On to 300 million and more!
Always.
so very well said :cool: originalistrick :!:
thank you for your partisipation ;-)
and nice thoughts & comments :idea:
;-) B.B. :mrgreen:
Dear Marina,
Congratulations on exceeding 200 Million! It’s because you’re so beautiful and you make such wonderful videos. It was great to see you enjoy a wonderful time in Orlando, and watch the Lakers win an exciting game Thursday! You have a nice tan, now. I’m glad you wore your bikinis so much! :razz:
I hope I can still see you when you reach 500 Million views! :razz:

That is great, greatestpotential!
Cool. thx greatestpotential!
Thanks. You’re welcome Marina and may you have much more continued success :!:
You damn good Joe!
Well, I do the best with what I got and even pick up on some tech stuff here which helps. Aprish ;-)
Not to copy you, greatestpotential, but earlier I was working on something for the same occasion and I was wondering if you could show me how to do it the way you do
@haitianboy
“Hello”
:o I’m horrible at explaining tech stuff! However, I checked out what you’re working on. Seems you’re getting some graphic effects going on there, just keep at it. The fun is in discovery. Anyway, you probably want to do it the way you want to do it then when you’ve got it you can say it’s “yours”
Oh and good job. I was going to put ” You bet your assets” but they wouldn’t let me.
I couldn’t get any photos, I don’t know how to do that though.
you’re the best marina
CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!
You’re so money!!!!!
I love the “raw” footage of you and Gorby.
Who needs lighting and makeup with a complexion like yours. :grin:
