I'm a 44 year old chick and I have to keep checking myself, Dude comes into my conversations way to much. :)

We're still wondering what the pregnant swan is.

Basically Eleanorsbee.

 

if you flex your bicep with a fist then turn your hand outwards making a duck beak with your fingers you get what looks like a swans neck, if you have great biceps you get what we call a "pregnant swan". I know there would be some technical term for it, maybe one of the more experienced Warriors would know.

 

My use of it was totally sarcastic! I have wood duck more than pregnant swan arms!

Yeah, I use Dude a lot too. I also tell my daughter to "chill out, homeslice" on a regular basis. I generally have to switch between that and "punch it, Chewie" daily. Kids have their own concept of time and schedules and it doesn't always work with the real world.

"Dude" the first of my "four stages of annoyance" with my 3 year old:

 

Level 1: "Dude"

Level 2: "Son"

Level 3: "Child"

Level 4: "<first name>!!!"

 

"Firstname Lastname!!!" is reserved for use by his mother ;)

 

LOL, I know when I'm about to get into trouble because my mom will take in a deep breath to start my full name. I have 3 middle names, it takes a moment to yell at me.

Also, he has no interesting in squatting but will deadlift.

Suddenly (within the last few months) my husband has just straight up quit on squats and DLs. It's oddly discouraging for me, since he's my workout buddy and I wanna celebrate his gains in addition to my own.

You can also use the above with both arms, then tell everyone around to call a vet as these swans are sick...

My mom never calls my full name. It's just that her first language wasn't mine, and my dad's last name plus the first name he gave me is really complicated. :P

Was at the gym last night with the wife and saw a girl that I used to go to school with. She was "squatting" the bar and 25s on each side. 95 total

Now i do "Squatting " because her feet were much wider than her shoulders, she would bend at the waist, then go down to the bottom of her thigh parallel to the ground, and then shove her butt out like she was doing a good morning. I attempted to help her out and critic her form a little bit (we got along in high school so I figured that might help)

Her response was "Well this is how my Ex taught me to squat, and he is a level 2 certified Crossfit Coach, what certifications do you have?"

I put my headphones back in and proceeded to squat 205 for 6 reps with near perfect form ATG too.

I took the headphones out and said "That’s my certification. IF you want to destroy your back and knees due to no full range of mobility, go right ahead."

Put the headphones back in and proceeded to deadlift loudly next to her
