ask

The archaic form of the question verb, "to axe."

ask

verb: to present a question, or to request something.

Misused by stupid British soccer commentators as a substitute for job, task, or assignment. The same commentators also butcher the language by using "take" in place of control, take possession, or catch.

ask

One of the thousands of search engines available in the United States but is nowhere near as cool as google or yahoo because it does not offer an add URL service for free, cheap asses.

Ask

Oh I'm sorry. I didn't know I was supposed to be watching you too. It's hard to tell who's in on the joke.

Hym "Ask and you shall receive. Was that you? Are you the one looking for me? What did your dad refuse to tell you who I was? Was a petty old bastard. Jesus Christ. God, I actually wouldn't have said all that if I would have know you we're looking for me. How should I do this.... 🤔 I don't want to be too on the nose. Otherwise it wouldn't be any fun... Ok, if I were I director... And you wanted to be in my movie... You see where I'm going with this?"
