Huz-ZAH!

Chocolate Brick Cookie: GChat is sorely lacking in that one cannot edit one’s existing status messages
CBC: err… that doesn’t need an apostrophe. tsk tsk, Chocolate Brick Cookie. tsk tsk
LQA: yes it does
CBC: it does?
CBC: it’s not like its?
LQA: un-tsk, chocolate brick cookie. un-tsk
LQA: nope
CBC: oh, ok
CBC: good to know
LQA: Un-Tsk, huzzah!
CBC: heh
CBC: my senior year of hs, my brit lit teacher used to write huzzah on vocab tests or something when we did well
LQA: nice
LQA: i want to be a teacher like that
CBC: and I thought it was such a fun word, that I started shouting it in the hallways at random times and stuff. and I’d sneak up behind my friends and yell it to surprise them
LQA: hahahaha
LQA: mental image
LQA: wonderful
CBC: but I always said it in an overly deep voice, like the way army guys say HOO-rah
CBC: because that just seemed to fit
CBC: little did I know, my understanding of the term would eventually shift towards thinking it’s mostly used by women, history geeks, and homosexuals…
LQA: even better
LQA: what about history-oriented lesbians?
LQA: do they use it?
CBC: yes, like it’s their job
LQA: like it’s going out of style
CBC: Yeah, the venn diagram of “huzzah” usage holds up

    history-loving lesbians!
    CBC: yeah, those two clearly love history
    you can tell by their shirts…
    they’re from 1985!

  2. The venn diagram now needs to expand to include a whole group of Pittsburgh Penguin hockey fans who have taken to pronouncing Martin Hossa’s last name as “huzzah.”

    We only do that when he does something good.

  3. What does his last name sound like if he does something bad? “Huzz-fuck”?

  4. [...] pants were coming back to haunt me! CBC: haunt? nay, milady CBC: they are a credit to you lqa: (so you have your opinions about ‘huzzah,’ but you haven’t addressed ‘milady’?) CBC: haha lqa: please note: if you’re [...]

  5. sorry for delay, but when he fucks up, his name is obviously pronounced “HO-sa,” as if he were the subject of a Ludacris song.
