A derogatory term for a dirty person. Used primarily in northeastern Pennsylvania. Originally derived from the family name "Counterman", who are notoriously dirty. Other forms include "Cudderman" and "Cud"
"Cunnerman" not "cutterman". Dennis Quaid and "breaking Away" have nothing to do with it. 1) Derogatory term for white trash in the Pocono region of Pa. "He's nothing but a cunnerman".(cutterman)
2) Term of friendly ribbing if your family has lived here for generations and so has the recipient of the comment. "Hello you old cunnerman. How's the venison"
History.. A family named Counterman lived north of Mountainhome off Rt. 191 before the town of La Anna. They were tounge-tied and pronounced their name "Cunnerman". Their abode was filthy and smelled terrible. It was refered to as "the Skunks Misery" as it smelled so bad no decent skunk would live there. The foundation of the builing is still visible from "Misery" road. There is a road sign to confirm this. Cunnerman, cutterman
While our lifespan is the number of years we will live, our healthspan is the number of healthy years we will have and our sexspan is is the number of years we will continue to be healthy enough to continue having an active sex life.
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.
For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
