Just for the dinosaurs (domosaurus ) (im 28 btw) the term Biggup's and Boh selecta come from Jamaica in the 70's, it means to give thanks or kuedo's .(sp?). usually to a DJ but gets used in general these days.

Threads just a bit of fun and i know people like to read about others success and glory wether it be brewing or otherwise. glad everyones getting the hang of it. biggups to that.

 

[sinkas]

This thread sucks

 

[domonsura]

I know what biggups means man...I was BORN in the early seventies surrounded by Marley & the Wailers.......

it was the
"biggup to da dNb masiv!!"

that set me off :lol: reminded me of this damn 'text speak' that all the kids (mine included - I may only be 35, but I have 13 & 15 year old boys) use these days because they are too damn lazy to type the whole word......the death of the english language as far as I'm concerned....

DnB. Drum and Bass. A style based on a 6 second drum solo from the 1960s. Strange, although I do like it in moderation (showing my age ).

Massiv - group of people. Jamaican again. Often in relation to dnb/jungle.

Come on, dom, english is an evolving language, that's all. Bet you don't hate the slang from your era.

Edit: Fents, it's kudos you ignorant b*&^*&^. Youth of today. Bah!

Nuff respek to tha Stuster!!!
Sorry Domonsura, but it wasn't all txt type talk. lol :lol: . By the Dom I am 35 as well, the only difference is that I have been listening Jungle/ dNb( drum and bass) for a good 15 odd years.
Biggups To Domonsura for wanting to keep the English language alive.

Whats the opposite of a biggup???

a smalldown

biggups Fat Freddys Drop playing a 3 hour set last night, the singer has the best voice ever and the trumpets go off.

smalldowns to having to wait 30mins to buy a $9.50 heinikin...seriously thats nearly as much as 10.50 we were paying at the strippers for a mates bucks the other weekend. its getting a bit ridiculous.

biggups mashing in at 10am! should be done by 2 or 3 oclock.

a smalldown

Thought of that but it doesn't quite convey that generally angry, **#$#%#@ed off feeling I want to convey.

For $9.50 you'd expect shares in the company. Heiniken just not worth it.
Won't say biggups or smalldowns, wahhhh tooo oooold to ever remember the seventies .. kind of went passed me real quick !!!

[Fents]

Biggups Peels for popping past for a few brews and to drop off case swaps! I wont touch em i promise!

 

[65bellett]

I would add a "Biggups" to the guys at Grain and Grape who were very informative and friendly. I even got a free glass of beer and a look at an all grain demo.

Love that shop.

 

[schooey]

Biggups to Tony for being an all round champion to a noob to the site and being good enought to welcome me not only to his home, but into his brewhouse as well. The things I learnt today will save me months of reading and confusion. And the bright ale off tap was sensational also.

:beer:

 

[pokolbinguy]
