Why do Americans call ‘Richard’s ‘dick’ and ‘Robert’s ‘Bob’ I don’t get it

I can explain this! Richard and Robert are English names originally, and for a while, rhyming slang was a quite common in Cockney English. Basically it’s just nicknaming shit with random words that rhyme with it. So you’d call the stairs “apples and pears” or the telephone the “dog-and-bone”. So as Rick is slang for Richard, “Dick” became slang for “Rick” because, well, it rhymed. Same goes for Rob and Bob. This construction has all but fallen out of use, and Dick and Bob are the final hangers-on of this weird little trend.

OHHHHHHHH. I learn something new every day I’m on here.

In America, we call them lifesavers. They can be chewy or hard candy. 

polos aren’t chewy and they also come in mint.

Reblog if you have a scar with a story behind it.

This one time I tripped

this one time I split my forehead open

This one time a dark wizard tried to kill me when I was a infant but couldn’t

Cut myself on 500 year old roofing tile and had to get a tetanus shot.

Rode a borrowed bicycle with no brakes, tried to take a corner when going too fast on a steep hill, hit a metal road sign instead, cut my chin open. 37 years ago. 

Puncture scar from trying to pet horses and leaning too far over the barbed wire.

Scar on my knee when I was five from tripping and falling because a clown was chasing me on Halloween night.

Reblogging it again because I just was scrolling through my dash on my phone and saw it and pressed play and my brother gave me the dirtiest look and I just said “wait for it” and then I laughed and he stared in horror

That was fun

oH MY GOD

i’m gonna throw this on my playlist that i put on in the car and just wait for it to come on shuffle one day and wait for the looks of sheer hatred to come over everyone’s face.
