![]() I think where the confusion lies is in the psyche of New Zealanders. Instead of calling it the Buggi man they should call it the Bugger man. Since New Zealanders' forefathers consisted of dregs of humanity emptied from overcrowded British jails into exile on a God forsaken southern hemisphere island one must examing British slang to glean the meanings of bugger and how they apply to New Zealanders or rather, how they define New Zealanders. bugger Noun. 1. An objectionable person. 2. A person. Also used in a sense of pity, see 'sod'. 3. A situation or event that is difficult or distressing. E.g. "It's a real bugger Pete catching the flu on his summer holidays." Exclam. Expressing annoyance or frustration. Verb. To ruin, damage, break. E.g."If I find out it was you that buggered my DVD player, then you can forget borrowing money from us to go on holiday." From: http://www.peevish.co.uk/slang/b.htm The lesson to be learned: know your roots. . . Wilbur Hubbard It is becoming increasingly noticeable that the good Wilbur is making more and more references to obscene activities. Perhaps his lifelong abhorrence of women is just now coming to the fore or perhaps he has always batted from the opposite side of the plate. In any event the closet door appears to be opening and the real Wilbur is slowly emerging. A fool who knows his foolishness is wise at least to that extent, but a fool who thinks himself wise is a fool indeed. Now the idiot displays his ignorance. He does not even know the difference between New Zealand and Australia which is over 1,000 miles distant. New Zealand was founded either b y land companies or by Church Societies such as the Anglicans and Presbytarians. There were no convict forebears Ignoramus. |
