[old.Tohtori]

Blag? If it's kinda like sickscore thingy, then i really can't remember as my last test was...umm..around 10 years ago.

Anyhoo, been at work ill too, today to the doctor, a 5 day flu can't be good. Let's see what i got later.

Congratulations by the way.

in my area, we use the word blag to describe doing well at something by sheer luck i suppose.

like i owned the test with no revision and no idea, LUCK!

 

[old.Tohtori]

Ah, good to hear new words.

So like, if i get totally wasted, don't remember even going out, and wake up next to a supermodel at a penthouse in new york, i could get my hands on a golden laptop and say i blagged the night?

 

[tris-]

i havent heard it used in that sense but i suppose you could yes!

 

[Billargh]

Yer I thought 'blagging' was stealing stuff. :|

 

[Dukat]

I think it depends alot on the context and where you come from

Where I come from it can mean lying "I just blagged my way through that presentation!" but it can also be used like the word "shit" and "fucked" as a replacement word for anything if the subject of what you're talking about is obvious enough.

 

[tris-]

yeh it seems in boro you can replace any word with anything and it still makes sense.

^- Is truth -^

It's funny blagging peoples heads sometimes, can get you places.

Blagged my way through a couple of interviews to date, amongst other things.

AAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH!

A blag, is when you have no fucking clue what you are doing/suposed to say so you make it up on the spot.

Most decent interviewers/teachers will be able to tell when someone is blagging so becoming good at it is essential

rofl thats my whole flippin life tbh.

i think one of the funniest ones was when i was a nipper in middle school and we were playing football in PE, anyone here who knows me will know im a total cinderella...something comes hurtling toward me and im running away from that ball so fast the glass slippers melt.

anyway, i was busy trying to avoid all physical contact with the ball and the players when someone chipped the ball and it smacked me right on the head and went in the goal and i was a bit dizzy, saw stars and little tweety birds and went "cor did you see that header i did!" everyone was like wayhay!!! what a shot!!

Lol you know that reminds me of a very similar blag I pulled off when I was 9 years old. We were playing football during lunch in the school yard, it was very sunny that day and I was playing in goal. Some kid sprints down the right wing and unleashes a piledriver of a shot right at my head. The problem with that is I can't see a damn thing playing in goal as the sun is blinding me, I lift up my hand to shield my eyes the very instant the ball is about to smash my face in. The hand kind of palms the ball over the crossbar and everybody just thinks I pulled off the greatest wonder-save of all time. Of course I went along with that version of events but it was pure blag, a split second later and my nose would have been pointing north/south/east/west all at once.

Had an almost similar thing for a java test last term. Walked into uni unable to walk in a straight line (illness, not drunk) and when in there I could barely keep my eyes open, was dizzy, had a headache, the works. Test started and all the way throughout I kept making horrific lurching sounds much to the amusement of everyone apart from my lecturer in the room. Ended up with 67% for it. Only other pieces I did while drunk at the time I managed 88% and 80% but they don't count so much as they were coursework but I was still very happy . Staying up for four days while feeling like that just isn't good for your health.

I do have to say though, history dictates that whenever I'm ill and have something to get done, I generally do a much better job then when I feel fine.

i blagged collage/highscool (dunno which word describes danish "Gymnasium")

 

[Binky the Bomb]

Once did a test at college after a full night out on the booze, no sleep and no food. I remembered sitting down, having the test handed to me, and then waking up an hour later with marks across the test sheet.

40 questions, 36 answered correctly. To this day I cannot tell you what any of the questions were, or even the subject matter.

 

[tris-]

thats a golden blag in my books binky!

 

[Himse]

I thought blagging meant lieing!

oh dear :<

 

[old.Tohtori]

Well, it was the december of 200mhmhm, and i was at an game-release party. Drank, drank some more, remembered i had a date with a hot lady(second date) at another bar later on...so drank some more. Hell, it was free!

So, one stumble out the door and loss of memory later, i woke up, in a strange bed, with a nakid hot lady by my side(yes the same one) and i couldn't remember a thing after i left the release party.

Evidently, it was one of the best dates she'd had, i was a total gentleman, and she just couldn't keep herself from jumping on me when we got to her place.

I still haven't managed to repeat that on a second date with anyone else.

I say date when i mean "first met at bar, decided to meet ext weekend too".

oh dear :<

I've used the word in that context also himse, I blagged my way onto a college course by saying I was predicted A's and B's in my GCSE's, they said they'd have me on X course if I got the grades, but would have me on the one below regardless of my marks seeing as I was predicted A's and B's. I went there with D's and managed to talk my way in when really I should've been on a far lower course

Once I'd gotten in there I was fine, it was just getting past the front door that required the blagging!

Me and some mate hoped the fence to play football on the Uni football pitch which was closed. So we hear the police show up and everyone runs im no fan of running so i just walked round the corner and sat at the bus stop. When the cop came round the corner 5 seconds later they asked if i had seen anyone so i pointed down the road and they left me alone

 

[pikeh]

im no fan of running ...

must be good to play football against then
