Lisa: dental hygiene is so hot right now
Sometimes the Fergie-bot says some stuff that the kids out in the suburbs can't understand. This time, the confusion-causing lyric was found in Glamorous:
Livin' my life
In the fast lane
And I wont change
By the Glamorous, oh the flossy flossy
Investigation was obviously called for. After verifying that the lyric is indeed "flossy flossy," I checked the sometimes helpful (but always offensive!) Urban Dictionary. There were two helpful definitions that actually predated the song:
1. Extremely flashy or showy.
2. Someone who is hot, sexy, or banging.
Yahoo! Answers also chipped in with:
3. Ornate or showy in a flashy, often almost vulgar way.
Now I'm wondering if Jennifer Lopez wasn't just talking about dental floss when she said "if I wanna floss I got my own." Thoughts?
On an eerily related note, Sarah bought me a toothbrush that plays Let's Get it Started by broadcasting sound waves through my teeth and directly INTO MY BRAIN. That's what the package says, anyway. It's awesome--now I in the mornings I shake my thang AND brush for a full two minutes!
Posted by lisa at March 28, 2007 01:37 PMWAIT JUST A SECOND. She actually bought one of those brushes and I didn't know about it? ugh I feel so disconnected.
Posted by: Mallory on March 28, 2007 02:15 PMWow that sounds like an amazing toothbrush. And your toothbrush keeps running, running and running, running. Yeah that toothbrush sounds flossy.
Posted by: Jeremy on March 28, 2007 02:35 PMum, . . . i know one usage of the word floss in reference to "hot" and "banging" and "vulgar" . . . but i should probably not mention it. . . considering i would get slapped.
