Yeah, my little sister did that IN MIDDLE SCHOOL and that was like seven years ago at least. I would pick her up and she'd be like, "Bye J-dawg, Bye Q-Dawg, Bye..." And they would all be like, "Bye L-dawg! You rule, girl!"

my friend has a tshirt that says "the dogs" on it and has pictures of dogs. therefore it is cool.

― Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 8 August 2003 14:13 (twenty-two years ago)

Alex, Sean Connery will be crushed.

I say yo dog to my pool cleaning guy

― Paul Eater (eater), Friday, 8 August 2003 14:15 (twenty-two years ago)

Thanks to Randy Jackson, I cannot stop saying things like "This wasn't your best performance, dawg" or "I wasn't feelin' it dawg", etc. It started as joke but now it has careened out of control.

I FEEL YOU

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Friday, 8 August 2003 14:17 (twenty-two years ago)

it has its uses. if you don't know the guy's name, but you know it begins with a J, you can just say, "Yo, J-Dawg. Howzit goin'. Listen, I _really_ need that rent money from you by friday, or I'm gunna have to send Milt for you."

― Kingfish (Kingfish), Friday, 8 August 2003 14:24 (twenty-two years ago)

I have been calling my brother J-Dog for years. I am E-Rock, and the youngest brother is B-Fine.

― Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 8 August 2003 14:25 (twenty-two years ago)

er, I mean I am H-Rock

― Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 8 August 2003 14:25 (twenty-two years ago)

i said m-a-s, t-e-r, a g with a double e

of the man they call the master gee
well, my name is known all over the world

i'm goin down in history

― Chris V. (Chris V), Friday, 8 August 2003 14:31 (twenty-two years ago)

NEVER SHALL I RETIRE IT.

― Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 8 August 2003 14:31 (twenty-two years ago)

I FEEL YOU

Within my mIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIInd.

All my dawgs are refered to as dawgs to preserve the historical significance of how far we go back. For instance, Nickalicious is my dawg, because we were friends in an era when it was common parlance to refer to such friends as "dawgs". A friend I met a year ago would not be refered to as such.

― Dale the Titled (cprek), Friday, 8 August 2003 14:48 (twenty-two years ago)

The only person I call dawg is Bryan (from ILX), and the reason I call him that is fairly obscure: I was googling my boyfriend's name (which is also Bryan) and came across another person with his name, whose profile said "...but my friends call me B-Dawg".

My boyfriend just isn't "B-Dawg" material, but Bryan of Winnipeg is, kinda.

Anyway I keep meaning to stop but you know how these habits get...

― Chris P (Chris P), Friday, 8 August 2003 15:18 (twenty-two years ago)

Wow. Now Bryan is gonna be B-Dawg for me too, shit.

― Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 8 August 2003 15:19 (twenty-two years ago)

Ha! Great, like Bryan's life isn't difficult enough right now!

― Chris P (Chris P), Friday, 8 August 2003 15:20 (twenty-two years ago)

Bryan will be referred to as M-Stache

― Chris V. (Chris V), Friday, 8 August 2003 15:20 (twenty-two years ago)

It's your fault!

― Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 8 August 2003 15:20 (twenty-two years ago)

But Chris, the stache is history!

Everything is my fault. Why is it that everything I touch, I destroy?!

― Chris P (Chris P), Friday, 8 August 2003 15:23 (twenty-two years ago)

All you have to do is become posh British. "Dog" spoken like the queen sounds frightfully silly, what.

― Mark C (Mark C), Friday, 8 August 2003 15:29 (twenty-two years ago)

That would just make it funnier. If I were posh British I would probably walk around all day saying "You the man now Dog!"...

― Larcole (Nicole), Friday, 8 August 2003 15:39 (twenty-two years ago)

I only refer to my enemies as dawg. Like, "Mark my words, dawg, vengeance will be mine."

― NA (Nick A.), Friday, 8 August 2003 15:44 (twenty-two years ago)

some dawgs don't ever have a day

― Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 8 August 2003 15:47 (twenty-two years ago)

"yo dawg, can I, like, get a 40?"

― Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 8 August 2003 15:48 (twenty-two years ago)

How do we feel about "son"?

― Paul Eater (eater), Friday, 8 August 2003 15:49 (twenty-two years ago)

I am expecting JtN to pop up with some comment on my karaoke rapping at any moment ;)

― Mark C (Mark C), Friday, 8 August 2003 15:49 (twenty-two years ago)

"Son" is pretty evil too. Sean Connery has license to say whatever the fuck he wants....but he's earned it. I don't extend that courtesy to the rest of the world, though. I suppose "dawg" is no less irritating than "dude," but I'm just FUCKING TIRED OF IT!

But, yeah, "son" is pretty awful. Phrases like "It's bangin', son!" OHHHH MY GOD, FUCK YOU!!!!!

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 8 August 2003 15:51 (twenty-two years ago)

Come on, you'd like it if Jaz Coleman told you to "Honor the fire, dawg".

― Larcole (Nicole), Friday, 8 August 2003 15:54 (twenty-two years ago)

making reference to the person y're talking to at all, dud.

― Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 8 August 2003 15:56 (twenty-two years ago)

"It's bangin', son"??? Alex, who are you having these conversations with?

― Ally (mlescaut), Friday, 8 August 2003 15:57 (twenty-two years ago)

That one guy in the street computer picture posted elsewhere.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Friday, 8 August 2003 16:01 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm still not so hip that I don't expect "son" to be used in actual parent-to-son conversations, so I'm always thrown when I overhear someone on the train saying "yo yo, listen up, son" and look over to see it's a couple of nine-year-old Spence girls.

I imagine that that dissonance will fade soon from my mind. When I overhear a conversation beginning with "dawg" I am not shocked to find no actual canine interlocutor present.

― Paul Eater (eater), Friday, 8 August 2003 16:03 (twenty-two years ago)

the only time i say 'dawg' is when i see an actual K-9. i'll walk by it and say "What up DAWG!" but that's it.

― JasonD (JasonD), Friday, 8 August 2003 17:05 (twenty-two years ago)

B-Dawg suits me somehow, but I won't say why.

― Bryan (Bryan), Friday, 8 August 2003 17:08 (twenty-two years ago)

"it's bangin' son"

This sounds like something my dad might say if he liked techno.

― Ronan (Ronan), Friday, 8 August 2003 17:10 (twenty-two years ago)

I like dirty dawgs, like pirates and stuff.

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Friday, 8 August 2003 17:19 (twenty-two years ago)

2-3 miles a day is practically nothing, though, and that's probably why you're not feeling it (dawg). I needed to do 10-15, 3-4 days a week to see results. Most cyclists who do it for exercise do it for at least 7 miles a day.

-- Kerry (dymaxi...), April 2nd, 2003 12:02 PM

i loved this

― ron (ron), Friday, 8 August 2003 17:32 (twenty-two years ago)

Nick just put me on the phone with a puppy dawg.

― Sarah McLUsky (coco), Friday, 8 August 2003 17:37 (twenty-two years ago)

If I remember correctly, I believe I saw the reprehensible phrase "It's Bangin', Son!" as the caption to some highly stylized billboard advertisement for SilverTab jeans, depicting an illustration of hipster youth addressing each other with needless hand gesticulations.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 8 August 2003 19:40 (twenty-two years ago)

I don't think there's anything wrong with calling people 'dawg' or 'g-money home skillet' or 'guv'nor' or what have you, as long you're doing it to be goofy rather than cool.

― oops (Oops), Friday, 8 August 2003 19:45 (twenty-two years ago)

from such thoughts sprung the nineties

― nnnh oh oh nnnh nnnh oh (James Blount), Friday, 8 August 2003 19:47 (twenty-two years ago)

g-money home skillet! That's my new nickname for you, Alex!

That wins everything ever oh my god!

Was there something inherently bad about the 90s?

― oops (Oops), Friday, 8 August 2003 20:00 (twenty-two years ago)

Very much so, O-Skillet

― Curt1s St3ph3ns, Friday, 8 August 2003 20:23 (twenty-two years ago)

Talk to the hand!

― oops (Oops), Friday, 8 August 2003 20:37 (twenty-two years ago)

Take it to the masturbation thread

― Tep (ktepi), Friday, 8 August 2003 20:39 (twenty-two years ago)

The masturbation thread cuts off my circulation. Don't use one anymore.

― oops (Oops), Friday, 8 August 2003 20:41 (twenty-two years ago)

You'll never see the stars now!

― Tep (ktepi), Friday, 8 August 2003 20:43 (twenty-two years ago)

i call dogs "dog" if i don't know their name
