Lets see how many real Grunge fans there are.
 

Can anyone define these with out googling them? :D
bloated, big bag of blotation -
bound-and-hagged -
cob nobbler -
dish -
fuzz -
harsh realm -
kickers -
lamestain -
plats -
rock on -
score -
swingin' on the flippety-flop -
tom-tom club -
wack slacks -

I'll be curious to hear what connection Tom Tom Club have to grunge.

The answer is under Tina Weymouth's skirt.

:laughing:

Well, Tom Tom Club isn't in reference to the band, i'll give you guys that much.

I remember the list, and the story about it's origin from HYPE - but not any of the definitions (I think I might be proud of that)

None I hope

.

Haha, nope you've kind of got the idea though.

but i was being a jerk haha

Yes it's 'grunge talk', i've seen that list many times before. None of those have real definitions because they were all made up as a joke.

Grunge was significant enough a scene to develop it's own language and terms?

Well, it was perceived as such - which was ridiculous, which was the point... an intern made up the definitions for these terms in response to inane questions from a reporter studying "the grunge movement"... people who were there, then, seem to view "grunge" as a joke that got out of hand

Yeah, someone from Sub-Pop records made all these terms up like Tom Tom Club meaning "Uncool Outsiders" and such as a joke and the reporter for the New York Times published as "The Lexicon Of Grunge,Coming to a High School or Mall Near You"

Seriously?

That's pretty interesting actually.

Yeah I thought the same thing, for anyone that's interested;

* bloated, big bag of blotation - drunk
* bound-and-hagged - staying home on Friday or Saturday night
* cob nobbler - loser
* dish - desirable guy
* fuzz - heavy wool sweaters
* harsh realm - bummer
* lock - agreement
* kickers - heavy boots
* lamestain - uncool person
* pain ride - bus trip
* plats - platform shoes
* rock on - a happy goodbye
* score - great
* swingin' on the flippity-flop - hanging out
* tom-tom club - uncool outsiders
* wack slacks - old ripped jeans
* mickey sticks - older music fan

I like the band better.

If you think that's interesting, google 'sokal hoax'. It's not music related, but even more interesting. :laughing:
