dilly dally shilly shally

An expression used to chastize someone who is wasting time, focusing on unimportant things, procratinating, or otherwise being an emo blond-haired sissy boy.

NOTE: In Square Enix straight-to-DVD GC movie sequel to Final Fantasy VII, Advent Children, dilly dally shilly shally is used as the translation to "Zuru zuru zuru zuru" in the japanese version... WTF

Daily Mail

A British newspaper founded in 1896 by Lord Northcliffe.

Its stance is very right wing some would suggest as far right (it supported the nazi party between 1933 and 1939 and called Hitler "Adolf the great" and had the headline "hurrah for the black shirts")

It is critical about the BBC and claims that it is biased to the left.The newspaper is strongly against homosexuality,immigration and the European union.

Notable columnists in the Mail are Richard Littlejohn, jan moir and amanda plattell. They have all courted controversy Littlejohn said after the Ipswich murders of five women, Littlejohn described the victims as "disgusting, drug-addled street whores" and their deaths as "no great loss". He added that for prostitutes, "death by strangulation" is "an occupational hazard" stemming from their "free will".

dahly

Dahly, she is the most amazing and wonderful person you’ll ever meet. She is so funny, energetic and just down right breath taking. She makes you feel a way you never felt before. If you ever meet a Dahly make sure to keep her close cause she is one special person and you can’t find anyone like her. She is completely gorgeous but is kind of a shortstack. She is amazing at everything she does shuck is almost everything. She certainly one of a kind.

Carson Daily

An annoying jackass That no one is sure why he still has a talk show on the air. He thinks that he is funnier then hell, but he isnt, so he would blame the audience for his crappy jokes, saying that they are infact good, and they just suck.

Even though the audience sounds like theres laughing, and cheering coming from it, its actually just the fake sound, like what they use on crappy sitcoms, that they record of the good talkshows, like The Tonight Show and Late Night.

He is a bragger, that cannot help to not talk about himself. His jokes are fucking stale like shit.

He trys to use current popular things in culture to try to get ratings, but the only people he gets ratings are from people that fell asleep from the commercial bridge from Conans show to his, and left the tv on.

I hate him, you should hate him too.
Carson Daily loves himself, because no one will love him.
