Epic Rap Battles of Linguistics!
Bet you thought you’d never see that title. Still, there it is in black and white.
You’re welcome.
So, all you avowed word-nerds will certainly love this. But have you ever studied English as a foreign language? Maybe you’re an anglophile (mmm … scones). Or maybe you just have a hankerin’ for a rap battle, ANY rap battle.
Then you’ll dig this video.
As a part of their “What’s Your English” theme at the Macmillan Dictionary website, they apparently:
… asked Baba Brinkman (a Canuck) and Professor Elemental (a Brit) to produce a satirical rap-battle on the theme of stereotyped Canadian English versus stereotyped British English. The result was this ‘What’s your English?‘ video …
There you have it.
Also, I have to admit I stole my blog title from one of the best things on YouTube. It’s this guy, Nice Peter, who does videos called Epic Rap Battles of History. They’re probably not safe for work or children … and that’s exactly why they’re awesome-possum.
Hahahaha! … Ha. Ahh … That was a nice break from work. I have absolutely nothing intelligent to say. Thanks for the laugh and the link! :)

Boardshorts are held on by not one but two forms of closure. This pocket is used to carry a key while out in the water. So as not to slip, surfers rub wax on the end of their surfboards. Surf wax can become a hazard if a surfers legs are not properly covered. Much of the decision of how long board shorts should be is determined by current fashion trends. Board short lengths range from mid thigh to below the knee. Hurley Board Shorts Board shorts have a waistband that is usually held together by a lace tie, unlike swimming shorts that generally contain elastic waist bands, additionally there is a velcro fly. One of the most convenient things on swim shorts is the pocket. This pocket is used to carry a key while out in the water. Trunks are usually much longer and baggier than standard shorts or speedos. Surfers cover surfboards with a layer of sticky wax, this wax allows a surfer to comfortably stand on a surfboard without the fear of losing grip. The length of these shorts is based off of fashion. Shorts come in all different lengths. It is popular to wear these shorts with the top of a persons butt exposed. A persons fashion can be critiqued depending on their choice of swimwear.
