| 3. | Feather in your cap | ||
|
Back in the time where wearing hats was common etiquette one would often see a man with a feather in his cap. This would signify he has done something worthy of recognition, like completing a goal or winning something. Often, however, the British would see Americans wearing feathers, for seemingly no reason, and laugh at them for their conceitedness. They even created a song to mock Americans, known to us today as "Yankee Doodle". The feather, for a male, would be placed in the left side and for a female it would be placed in the right side. That tradition is continued today, only in place of a feather and a cap people use earrings, left ear means straight and right ear signifies homosexuality. A saying has also formed since then, to "Place a feather in your cap" which is used whenever someone wins something. Modern day use:
Guy-1: Hey, I just won that hard sporting event! Guy-2: Neat, that’s something to place a feather in your cap for! Guy-1: Okay, what's that mean? Guy-2: umm.. I don't know, let me look it up on urban dictionary. By the way, does that guy over there have his earring on the right ear? Guy-1: why.. yes, yes he does! He must be a homosexual, for a straight male would wear it on the left. 19th century use: Gentleman-1: Good morrow, friend, did you see that rousing game of stick ball? Gentleman-2: Why yes, you sure did show those men whose the better stick-player. That's something to put a feather in your cap for. Gentleman-1: Why yes, yes it is. But I better place it on the left side, as I am not a homosexual. History-slug: Remember kids, always place the feather on the side that fits you best! Homosexuals and females on the right, straight males and lesbians on the left! |

A place to when you want to get rained on, get your bike nicked by a load of chavs, walk in or around a load of dog shite on practically every street, go to school with teachers that have the collective IQ of a teabag and spend all summer being bored/being rained on. If you REALLY want to be beaten to death by some idiotic youths in tracksuits, COME TO THE ORMSGILL ESTATE/PART OF BARROW. Oh, and bring a skateboard. They dont like that.
PARKVIEW SCHOOL FTW! sarcasm today i went to Barrow In Furness, and quite frankly, i wish i never.
I am unfortunate enough to live in barrow. |
