I'd never heard that before. Is that peculiar to the north? We have some northern types on here I believe.
I've heard it, and I'm in the South West. I don't believe it's 'northern'.
Quote: Seefacts @ February 3 2009, 11:08 PM GMTFor the racists amongst you - I'm looking at Aaron - the full phrase is 'Drop off the Cosby kids'.
But then all your poopoos would have to be suspiciously different shades of brown and beige.
Picking up the kids is worse.

Tis one of my fave terms! Makes me laugh.
Quote: Aaron @ February 3 2009, 12:57 PM GMTWell all of the north is peculiar. But I think you mean "particular".
Actually I didn't. Peculiar def: Belonging exclusively to. 
That was very nearly as good as a good sexing and took twice as long.
Awesome.

Poor zooo or is she getting that for you?
She already has a vaguely similar one.
Gah! Damn you Aaron. You fueled my addiction to thinkgeek.
I found myself wandering the website with a big stupid grin on my face.
It was so very hard to pull away.

I often use code like that when selecting Pantone colours.
