Ken's Deputy 4,463 Posted July 16, 2020 Report Share Posted July 16, 2020 I've just come across this term, written, in a random news piece. I know it's an American thing. Niggers and gingers partake. But, what is it? What does it mean? What do they even Do there? How is it pronounced? As in " Shower of monkeys "? Or like in " Grower, not a Shower "? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stumfelter 3,034 Posted July 16, 2020 Report Share Posted July 16, 2020 They do it over here, the crux of it is people who barely know them "shower" the expectant parents with ridiculous gifts to try and outdo the other people for social media purposes. Oh and it's shower as in black power because I asked wilf. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But, I never even thought to look on google. What good's a casual, 'down the pub' sort of forum is every dour faced b*****d just looks shit up on line? Much like Real pubs today. Bunch of idiots grunting to themselves as they stare at their phones. Thumbing the screen 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DIDO.1 22,866 Posted July 16, 2020 Report Share Posted July 16, 2020 Only on THL could you read the sentence 'niggers and gingers partake' THL is the last bastion of English male freedom. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chartpolski 28,678 Posted July 16, 2020 Report Share Posted July 16, 2020 Understairs toilets, baby showers, Kens understudy..........on a hunting site ? Now, I know I'm a conspiracy theorist, but are you really a fat dwarf from Berwick, who must be 120 years old to have done half of what he claims to have done ? If you're not, please accept my sincere apologies , but I thought only he could post such esoteric subjects ! LOL ! Cheers. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As an Emeritus Professor of Archaic Rhyming Slang, (Honoury); may I attempt a translation ? "Steam Tug", Mug, a fool . "Radio Gapa"; perhaps a local phonetic pronunciation of " Radio Gaga"; itself a corruption of the Old English "Radio Rental"; Mental. I hope this helps, if not, I haven't got a f***ing clue ! LOL !
