on the other hand INIT is not a good word. Actually the best phrase in English is "Cellar Door" I dont know why but people voted it.

ha ha ha I just googled that word as well. I have visions of me running about this weekend shouting Bohica.

Then the beauty of it is- if a girl asks why I keep saying it, I just have to say Bohica

Can anybody please help me? I'm having terrible problems controlling my streetmagic- I can't walk down a street without turning into a pub.

You beat me to it lol :?

QUESTION:
If we can sue McDonalds for making us fat and cigarette companies for giving us cancer; why can't we sue Smirnoff for all the ugly gits we've sh*gged ??
