Shoot a bunny

I recall a rather pretentious friend (read acquaintance) of mine once telling her boyfriend that she'd drunk an 'elegant sufficiency'.

I remember at the time thinking - ahhhhhhhh.... no, you're drunk - 'para', 'p*ssed as a newt', 'gonzo', ratsh*t, etc.

She then reeled off a series of apparently lady-like terms for less than lady-like behaviour. eg. I have fluffed - I squeaked. What the...???

As a girl from the bush, I considered all of this to be a serious case of BS. Yes indeed, we are inclined to 'talk straight' when we're from the bush. Fluffing is what we always called f*rting, squeaking - well to be frank, I never figured that one out.

So - my question here is, does anyone else have any other pretentious - supposedly lady-like terms I can use to cover up for primal/ignorant behaviour, AND does anyone else have the faintest idea what 'squeaking' is??? Cos - I have to admit - I never did figure out that whole 'squeaking' thing. Squealing - well yeah OK, I can work with that possibility, but SQUEAKING???


I've heard 'glowing' for 'sweating'.

Yes, Lady Camel. Horses sweat, gentlemen perspire and ladies glow.

It might be an indication that the person is a 'tight ass.'
How about 'dropping a rose?'


Squeaking is (I thought) a humorous term for 'farting'. Sorry for the indelicacy.

DFG

Squeaking is letting out one of those farts that emerge with the sound of a party squealer!

Us men were ignorant of the fact that girls fart until "laddette" culture made them proud of it!

Young girls today! tsk.

'Laddette culture'??? Lewis, explain please!

My kids used to call far*ing --- shooting a bunny.
