Blogging fun since 4th May 2001

Mocks you when you use "ya".

As in,

"Thank you, ya."
"Looks like her, ya."
"See you later, ya."
"Take care, ya."
"I'll bring the cake, ya."

Not to be confused with "Hi ya" or "how ya doin'". Ya in this case is acceptable.

Ya?!

It's not endearing like "Eh" or hip like "K". "Ya" just makes you sound stupid. Not silly; silly is fun and cute, just plain stupid.

Unless you are from Brittany and speak Breton, you have no business saying "ya".

And the thing is, a lot of my colleagues and fringe friends say it a lot. Especially to impress.

Ya?!

Don't roll your eyes. Read your last sent email or SMS, see if you used "ya".

If yes, slap yourself with a trout.

Thank you.
