I guess 'Nobody asked you' isn't English?

[–] Johanno@feddit.org 15 points 8 hours ago (3 children)

A relative new saying in German.

Person A: Where is the bus?

Person B: which bus?

A: Of people who asked?!

[–] CrowAirbrush@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

Damn, i'm taking this xD

[–] Zabjam@feddit.org 1 points 3 hours ago

Kennst du Esther?

[–] Kuma@lemmy.world 3 points 7 hours ago

Sounds like a question I got from a classmate in grade school in the classroom after I said who I had played with (teacher asked us) "what is the color of the bus?", I didn't understand what he was talking about so I just looked at him confused, so I do not know the rest sadly. He got really embarrassed when the teacher answered "the color of your face" 😂

Depends on the region. In my native it was popular to say ебало завали, which loosely translates into "collapse your mouth" where mouth is used in a sense where it's an organ for penetration during sex.

[–] BigPotato@lemmy.world 6 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Basically, "Shut your dick hole," correct?

[–] alzymologist@sopuli.xyz 19 points 10 hours ago

As native Russian speaker, this is terribly rarely used in this full format (and it's one among many), but genuine, I've heard it IRL.

"Тебя не ебёт, так не подмахивай"

This is highly and universally derogatory, you could expect to hear it from lowlife/criminal, which, unfortunately, is what most russians are lately, though. For russian nazi population, this implies that you are gay or a slut, depending on biological sex, and that's close to your life worth nothing. For the rest, this is just something nazies would say to insult you.

The first part alone, though, is quite socially acceptable and overused. I guess, because it's lost the whole lore behind it, and showing your knowledge of whence it came from kind of reveals that it's not just an empty word, but you mean it.

I'm a bit hyperfocused on swearing, am I? Was one of my childhood's special interests.

Honestly, "mind your beeswax" is also a rare gem, but not quite so rare.

[–] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 12 points 14 hours ago

I've always been partial to "This is an A -- B conversation, so C your way out."

[–] Ymer@feddit.dk 24 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

In Denmark, the youngsters have recently been saying "spurgt?" which translates to "asked?" - as in "were you asked?". Somehow the brevity and linguistic lazyness makes it even more infuriating.

[–] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 8 points 15 hours ago (4 children)

Sounds almost as irritating as "OK boomer". Which I have to say is especially irritating to be on the receiving end of since I'm not a boomer.

[–] tempest@lemmy.ca 8 points 14 hours ago

Ok boomer, calm down

[–] random_character_a@lemmy.world -2 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Don't invite trolls.

Millenials like nothing better than call everyone their grandparents and put nasty labels on their grandmoms and granddads.

[–] Alcoholicorn@mander.xyz 5 points 6 hours ago

Millennial are in their 30s and 40s, half the time theyre on the receiving end of OK Boomer.

IMO its great to be able to say "your lack of experience with the world as it exists now, and not 20+ years ago has left you unable and unwilling to understand. I am giving up trying to help you learn" in just 2 words

[–] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago

I respond with 'haha you are inheriting the most broken system in this natuons history and you will never see the end of it. Haha

[–] MycelialMass@lemmy.world 1 points 12 hours ago (1 children)
[–] random_character_a@lemmy.world -2 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Definitions exist for a reason. You don't just decide something is something else and it's age racist as fuck.

[–] gizmonicus@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

Language evolves, the meaning of words change. It's a natural part of the evolution of language over time. You say hang up the phone or dial a phone number, don't you? But you don't literally hang up a phone when you're done with it or turn a literal dial anymore. But they used to work that way, so we still use that language even though the original meaning is lost.

I would argue that although this phrase originated from dismissing the opinions of actual boomers, it's become a convenient shorthand way of calling someone out of touch with current social trends without having to adapt new phrases every time a new generation takes the place of the boomers as being out of touch.

Chilean Spanish? that's just a common Spanish saying

[–] crapwittyname@feddit.uk 8 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

The Scouse British dialect has a nice term for this: "Geg out". As opposed to "Fred is gegging in", used when someone is trying to implicate themselves or become part of the group/conversation.
Someone involving themselves when they shouldn't be? Two syllables: Geg. Out.
No idea where it comes from but I heard it a lot in my youth. Forsomereason.

[–] oo1@lemmings.world 2 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

We'd say "neb oot".

Neb being nose.

[–] crapwittyname@feddit.uk 1 points 7 hours ago

Is that Northern Ireland? Could well be where "geg" comes from if so!

[–] TastyWheat@lemmy.world 5 points 15 hours ago (1 children)
[–] Delphia@lemmy.world 2 points 9 hours ago

Or "Who the fuck asked you cunt?" If you're feeling spicy.

[–] Pacattack57@lemmy.world 13 points 18 hours ago (2 children)

In English it’s: Nobody asked you!

I will wiggle by ass on the camel & make signals with my candle whilst lubricating my onions with beeswax for you to fuck as I please, ok?!?!!

[–] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 22 points 22 hours ago

Apparently the Argentine equivalent is something like “take your hat off, you’re not in this photo”

[–] NoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.io 104 points 1 day ago (6 children)

As an Arabic speaker I have never heard of number 3, though Arabic is more like forty languages in a trench coat so that's not saying much.

[–] BigPotato@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

Even the English one is from the 1950s, there's so many more phrases used these days that are highly regionally dependent, not even just an American English vs British English but different cities will sometimes have their own preferences.

[–] Epzillon@lemmy.world 63 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I was surprised "Arabic" was this loosely defined when "Chilean Spanish" was very specifically defined immediately following

[–] auraithx@piefed.social 22 points 21 hours ago

This meme was brought to you by the Chilean gang

I'm from Ukraine but Russian is my native language.

No, it isn't so. Doesn't even look like a very bad translation. Just no.

[–] garbagebagel@lemmy.world 4 points 17 hours ago

I believe you but I like it so much that I'm gonna start using it anyway.

In Taiwan it's “關你屁事“

Which is mildly translated to "Care about your fart situation"

This is pretty derogatory. I wouldn't use it unless it's with your friends messing around.

It's not a "no one asked you", but it is an idiom. As you can probably guess, it means more "don't help people working against your interests".

So, you'd say something like that to a pro-ICE minority person, for example.

[–] Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 48 points 1 day ago (4 children)

German: That's not your beer./ That concerns you like damp dirt./ That can walk by your ass.

[–] PlexSheep@infosec.pub 2 points 5 hours ago

Where is the bus

[–] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 6 points 18 hours ago

It’s all sausage to me.
