Look It Up
By Ed. Filed in Computers & Internet, Life |
I hear words on TV and on the street and sometimes I have no idea what they are talking about. Like today, I was chatting up a guy in line at the gas station. Asked if he had watched a certain TV show the previous night. He said, “No, I was knocked up.”
Now, I didn’t know that guys could get knocked up. I thought that phrase meant that a girl got pregnant, usually out of wedlock or by someone other than her husband. It’s generally considered a bad thing.
So what was going on with this guy? I have no idea what he was talking about. I even tried to look it up on the Urban Dictionary and they got nothing different for me.
