pager code

Back in the 90's when pagers were made available to a younger generation, a code was created where numbers were assigned to represent letters so that messages could be passed using this code.

Each letter was represented using a number or combination of numbers. Some number definitions varied but this is just one basic breakdown:

A = 8
B = 8
C = 6
D = 0
E = 3
F = 4
G = 6
H = 4
I = 1
J = 7
K = 15
L = 7
M = 177
N = 17
O = 0
P = 9
Q = 0
R = 12
S = 5
T = 7
U = 11
V = 11
W = 111
X = 25
Y = 4
Z = 2

There was often a lot of confusion with messages.

pager code

Pager codes were used to type out letters using numbers back in the day when pagers were popular (before cellphones became mainstream). You would do this WITHOUT having to flip your pager upside down. A=6 B=8 C=0 D=0 E=3 F=7 G=9 H=4 I=1 J=7 K=15 L=7 M=177 N=17 O=0 P=9 Q=9 R=12 S=5 T=7 U=17(or 11) V=17(or 11) W=111 X=25 Y=4 Z=5. They are made to look as close to the actual letter as possible (Keep in mind that the font used on pagers show the numbers differently then this font). It's a little confusing at first, and takes you longer to figure out a word because some numbers stand for the same letters, but if you get a few of the letters, you can usually figure it out.

Morse code toilet paper 

The type of toilet paper often found in public toilets (restrooms) where the sheets are often of varying lengths, e.g. a short length represents a dit, a long length represents a dah. I don't know morse code but if I did, I might be able to decipher the code to see what subliminal messaging the manufacturer is trying to send to me.
God, not another one of those morse code toilet paper rolls, I wish they would order more expensive toilet rolls.

Word of the Day on August 25, 2026
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
