gip has become part of the lexicon, however its etymology stems from the word gypsie. you see, there's the stereotype that gypsies are untrustworthy and that they, as a whole group of people, will swindle/cheat/lie/steal/usw. so "to gip" arose and is still used today despite the fact that most people probably don't know that gypsies are still around and not totaly untrustworthy. the same thing has happened with the verb "turken" in german... i'll let you figure that one out.

Spanky - why use a phrase if you don't even know what it means? You really are a sad twat aren't you?

Kendra - Unfortunately a lot of us know only too well that gypsies / gypos / pikeys are still around today - a lot of local councils over here have had to take measures to move them on after they've plonked their caravans and delapidated old transit vans on fields wherever they damn well like.

The word "gip" (or alternatively "gyp") is taken. Don't contaminate its meaning without knowing what it means in the first place.

Hint: replace "gip" with "con." - jc

I am indeed ex Weeman. I thought I'd use my real name for a change now.
Did you not mean M.I.B 2. I wasn't aware of his part in 8 Legged Freaks?!

:oops: :roll: yeah, i meant MiBII with William Smith. Anyway- he'd probably be injecting some decent acting into it if he had starred in 8LF

now that, i hear, is a top film. its not out here yet. or has it?

8lf was bad. pop corn put down.

its enough to make any person suffering from Arachnophobia, laugh their heads off. or sleep for that matter. who's gonna be scared of a spider.
