Regarding "wanker":
About 12 years ago, during the summer before my junior year of college, I worked on a paint crew. At first, I didn't talk too much to the other guys, as I was a soft, academic music major type, and they were all tough hairy knuckle types. But one day, they were trying to rustle me into conversation. They knew I was into jazz, and someone asked "What do you think of Kenny G?"
Viciously, I spat "KENNY G IS A WANKER!!" Use of the word wanker and my militant stance on the question garnered much laughter, and at that moment solidified opinions that there was a new amusing presence on the crew. Overall, it was a good summer.Point is, that was 1997, and I used the word "wanker" frequently in the following year or two. it is entirely possible that any current hipster overusage of the term is, at least in part, my fault.
I am sorry.
