I doubt my opinion would be worth much in that discussion. You'll just think I was bluffing. But I don't mind cat and mouse. --DStirke 01:32, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

gun for

In my locale this means to make the target of ones actions, with negative implications; e.g. "he has been gunning for me since he got here, he wants my job". I am not familiar with the cheering on sense, is that an additional sense? - [The]DaveRoss 23:56, 31 January 2011 (UTC) See these quotes:

You know what, this could be my mistake. I guess I've always misunderstood that phrase. My apologies! --DStirke 00:01, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

white trash

Why do you keep undoing undoing my useful additions? It's because I'm black, isn't it? --Vahag 16:04, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

• I didn't know you's black. You certainly don't talk like a black guy. BTW, I'm not racist. I have loads of black friends. --DStirke 22:42, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
