what is the other word that ends in gry? that isnt hungry or angry and apparently everyone knows what it stands for and what it means?

Sorry I know this is hackneyed but it bothers me. Also what would it mean if someone said "here is the data you requested, fill your boots"?

you're right. Sorry I should have turned to google sooner. And I am told that fill your boots means take as much as you want, which kind of makes sense...

"why?" such an annoying question.

it happens pretty frequently, oops. (but it's still over my head)

er, maybe it went under your head, as it wasn't an intelligent joke or anything.
