I was just going through my copy of the Concise Oxford Advanced Learners Dictionary of Current English and when I came across 'YAHOO' and discovered this:

YA-HOO - /ja/:hu n Name given by Swift (in Gullivers Travels) to members of a race of inferior human beings with the habits of animals: hence detestable persons with bestial habits.

Good job I use Windows live as a backup then!

I don't do Yahoo...

Brother you have way to much time on your hands.........

I know a few ya- hoos. Nastyass creatures. Incredible beastly habits. Low intellegence. Lack of common sense. No depth perception. Funny they can even function enough to get on the net. Much less an internet dating site. They respond well to words like "DUH" and "WASSUP" and "HEY". I've studied their habitat in the wild in nature. They live out in the woods in garbage strewn areas in an aluminum box called a "mobile home". They have a penchant for hot dogs and alcoholic beverages and act like savage animals after imbibing in said products. Inbreeding is rampant. When sneaking in to society areas to pick up their rations of hot dogs and alcohol they try to mingle in society. But their taught language traits give them away. They use far too many double negatives and catch phrases. Sentences like "Ya-all wanna get a beer ya-all"? Or "Be seeing you". Ya-hoos are fairly easy to spot.

Omg

Never been on there

People keep asking me to open an account there

Now??

Never!!!

I used to always use Yahoo until they began that crappy flickr crap.

I believe in the book it is pronounced Yey hoo.

people actually still use real, physical dictionaries these days

Yeah....
But he always esplains some Good Stuff!! *Smile*

As I'm between 6-9 hours ahead of you, (depending on where you are in the states), when you're heading off to work, I'm either eating, RELAXING after getting home or sleeping, then I have plenty of spare time.
