Feelings

[fuzzyred]

I don't feel like spilling my guts all over the internet (again), but I'm feeling lonesome and in want of attention, and since I can be honest enough to admit that being seen and acknowldeged for who I am is something I need, I still want to spill my guts anyway.

It comes from Britain; it's the British English equivalent. "Dumpster" : "skip" :: "hood" : "bonnet :: "eraser" : "rubber", etc. And, Canada being more recently and strongly tied to England, I wasn't sure which term the local vernacular used.

Aha. I'm aware of a lot of the Biritsh terms, but "skip" isn't one I've heard before. I think most of our words are closer to the American than the British, but I am also in a border city, so maybe that factors in.
