Default Re: Magoo was the original

Why is "Donk" such an awesome word? I can think of no better way to describe someone who just wants to dump money onto a table.

Dude, MAGOO was the word before donk ever existed. Though both terms have their usages, and are indeed effective at getting their meanings across to the listener, I believe Magoo is the best choice of word. The reasons for this are complex, but it's partly because Magoo has been around for so long, it's so versatile, and it's very clear to the Super-Geniuses of the world (such as WE), yet vague, but at the same time non-threatening to the uninitiated. Also, magoo can be a noun, an adverb, adjective, verb, whatever you can friggin' dream up. Can probably be a past participle or a preposition that you can end a sentence with too, if you're clever enough (or redneck enough) to figure it out. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
