I just now found out this is a slang expression:

"What’s the Dilly –O?"

Comes from another slang phrase "What’s the deal yo?"


Singing "Dilly-o, Dilly-o Day" and bandying about a bit.

Uhhh!
Yo Bus a Bus (yeah)
Yo Bus a Bus (c'mon, c'mon)
Yo Bus a Bus, (UHH) rockin to the beat
(Flipmode motherfucker Flipmode y'all)

Yo Bus a Bus (UHH, yeah yi-yeah yea)
Yo Bus a Bus (ka-c'mon, ki-c'mon)
Yo Bus a Bus, (UHH) rockin to the beat
(Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yi-yeah yea)

Just an observation...

Mr. Dilly, you are bouncing off the walls tonight!!!!









And Perky, I LOVE the new av!


Care for a kiss?
 
No - its an interview with him, in Stuff Magazine:

Interviewer: Does it make you proud or sad that, at this moment, 40-year-old men in the suburbs are asking each other, "what the dilly-o?"

Busta Naw, I really don't think about that. I just do my thing and keep it moving. It's gratefully appreciated when my shit is latched on to, but the creative juices never stop flowing.

Well....I was thinking of Perky and her AV, but....I'm open for nominations from the floor.


Especially when it comes to kisses...

Please, Dillinger, one must not lend themselves to using such slang. Horrible things happen when one does; it slowly becomes apart of the English Language.

I'm still appalled at the use of the word "PC" in popular conversation concerning Personal Computers. It is as if we don't want to take the time to communicate. It is so important that we take the time to make sure that we are understood properly. Such slang only confuses others, and degrades the language.

It's very serious.

Actually I think you'd be happy if it became "apart" from the English language but, in fact, it actually becomes "a part" of the English language.

And - are you telling me that PCs aren't PC? And what's this have to do with our own Literotican that we fondly refer to as PC?
