OK, I'm gonna start saying this. How does the intonation go? I usually hear it in my head as "Do I?... [censored]!"

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah like that but with a heavy accent on the F*** with a rising inflection. You should normally turn your head with mild disgust

[/ QUOTE ]

there's no pause in there, you can lengthen the I out if you like though. a little extra emphasis on [censored] and a face of disgust helps.

you can also use it in to mean disbelief. does he [censored], is he [censored], have i [censored], has he [censored], all work in different situations.


good terms for girlfriend :

'our peg'
'our maud'

and you must pronounce our like are, obviously!
