This is either the action, person, or persons performing “the action of traversing a district or beat or of going the rounds along a chain of guards for observation or the maintenance of security” or the act of performing this. Let us break this one down together, shall we? According to my dear friend Merriam, the word 'dawn' in the way we use it here, means “the first appearance of light in the morning followed by sunrise.” So it's that little wink of time when it’s getting light, but we can’t see the sun yet. Dude, I’m just faster than you, deal with it. WHO WAXES THEIR SKIS FOR REAL, OTHER THAN SKI RACERS? Once, I passed a guy on the cat track and he asked me what kind of a wax I used. We have words for a reason, let’s use them.Īlternatives (or in this case, the best response): “I just wear my pack to look cool.” Ohhh, of course, how could I NOT have known that, with you being so clear and everything. on a date? Of town? For drinks? No, out of bounds. Though technically it is a sentence, it is a very vague one. But, we are grown up people (for the most part) and we have been saying this non-sentence, sentence long enough. I am as guilty of saying this one as the next person. Who’s laughing now?Īlternatives: I like to ski alone, it gives me time to think about how selfish I am. Beyond the fact that it is mean, what if your buddy is upside in a tree well? Now you really don’t have friends… on all the days. Can I let you in on a little secret? It was one of the best days because I got to watch the people I care about have a great time doing what I love. Your friends are not good enough for you when it snows? I skied with my east-coast based family on a powder day this Christmas season. This expression is not only overused, it is also mean. Believe it or not, this idea of over using expressions is a linguistic phenomenon. And those are becoming more and more frequent, and more and more annoying. Lots of these expressions sound stupid but actually serve a purpose, like “Is the red light beeping?” or “Powder day!” On the other hand, a lot of them don’t. The success of that video not only brings light to just how many expressions we have, but also a reminds us how dumb we sound when we say them.
Skiers have a lot of expressions, I mean, that “S*&^ Skiers Say” video went viral in a matter of minutes and as of this month it has over two million views.
