Supersweet

Glasto Lingo

Parle Voo Englaizzze?

Aww.... Childhood revisited!

Lately, SUPERSWEET has been made subject to some interesting and, dare we say, lazily ‘imaginative’ parlance. Never mind etymological correctness, lingo these days has gone all ‘chop-suey’ on the old verbal P.C and even abbreviated some words to within an inch of their life. Think Nu-Rave meets Chaucer in a black hole up Shakespeare’s arse. And with summer festivals nigh on high, you better learn how NOT to speak if you wana get fetch. So forgo the Queen - bring out the gimp and lets bastardise the hell out of English Language.
