And “No” stands for “Nicely Observed”.
NO!

yah that’s pretty much it, it comes from middle english newys which means “new things”
i’m now starting a movement to say “newies” instead of “news”
Newies sounds so much more fun, why did we change it to news :(
Australia didn’t yet exist
that feels like a slur for some reason
No that can’t be it
News is also a verb.
- “I newsed Sandy about the factory.”
- “I was newsing it up with Henry.”
You wish I was joking.
My favorite part is when the news yell “It’s newsing time!” and news all over the place
I can’t believe that the news stole morbius’ tag line
“I was newsing it up with Henry” sounds like an innuendo.
if it wasn’t before it is now
Every word can be versed is a core tenet of the english language. Just like Germans use more compound words and noun a lot of words.
Never Eat Wedded Shreat
I can eat the unmarried ones though, right?
Wedded, you say?
North. East. West. South. !
That’s what I learnt the origin of the word was.
My English teacher was dead serious when she told me that too
The odd and doubtful construction probably accounts for the absurd folk-etymology (attested by 1640 but originally, and in 18c. usually, in jest-books) that claims it to be an abbreviation of north east south west, as though “information from all quarters of the compass.”
To be fair to her, its an old myth
That’s what I figured it was when I was a kid. Same letters as the compass rose, information from around the world.

Lately I got my fill of wild shit, is there a way to change that?
