Cigarettes. He smokes them.

ah. ok. tnx.
geez, i need to buy me a book guide about english idioms. unable to understand english language to it's full extent is one of my little quirks too.

when I get bored at the office, I look for effeminate men downstairs who are virgins and deflower them

Hahaha, surprise sex right?

more like coercive sex

it's not an "idiom" - it's British slang

i think i better create a thread addressing my quirks about my english frustrations. like the essential when to use do/does, idioms, etc.

read more comics, watch more English movies undubbed, watch more English television, post here more

I wouldn't have been able to read Thomas Pynchon's Gravity's Rainbow were it not for exposure to the American vernacular on message boards - i'm only used to the British style of literature and found it near impenetrable

since we're on the topic, i remember one time when my teacher gave us an exam english conversation. here it goes:

teacher: Do you mind waiting?
me: ye's i'll wait.

and she gave me a failing grade for that specific answer alone. i was in grade 4 at that time and she was not able to correct me. what should have been the answer then if it was wrong? that's one of the most mind bugging puzzle that up to now i have no answer.

She was asking if it bothered you to wait. You answered "yes".

Speaking on the English language, my text twist score is over two mil and I haven't cheated.
