    I'm gona say it's a little more irritating then calling a cigerette a fag.

    So are shirts that say"I'm a bicth" and "I stole your boyfriend"

    But it's funny to see a ugly girl wearing one lol

    I looked up DAWG at Merriam-Webster&#39;s and it is not listed. What does it mean? I can&#39;t patricipate in this poll without knowing.

    I never heard of Americanism "Dawg".


    Is this an American Negro word? It doesn&#39;t sound like an American Caucasian word from my experience.
    it is ebonic for dog as in how scottish people say man. hey man how are you today
    hey dawg whats up ma nigga? [/b][/quote]


    Sounds like LAZY talk to me. I get the impression that they can&#39;t put an effort into saying the words correctly. I also can&#39;t help but think that whoever talks that way is mentally slow.

    This is near the zenith of stupidity.

    Dawg is an intentional mis-spelling of a phonetically correct pronunciation, so it doesn&#39;t even rise to the level of irritation.

    If I hear someone call someone DAWG, I denigrate them anonymously and painlessly by hearing DOG, as per usual canine reference.

    I mean, what if I hear someone say DOG-how are they to effectively communicate they meant DAWG?

    I once named a dog PAUSE, because he had big feet.

    Along the same stupid line, while making a phone call to someone I disliked, I asked if I was speaking to so-and-so, to which his answer was, "In the flesh&#33;".

    I was compelled to remind him that I had no way of knowing for sure, the telephone being an audio medium, not a visual one.

    He didn&#39;t catch my meaning.

    He wasn&#39;t a smart guy, anyway.
