Loose = Not Tight

Funny Karen, I always thought that 'slippy' was native to western Pennsylvania.

Perhaps that explains it, since so many Scots settled in Pennsylvania.

I bet you're right - I have a lot of Scotish blood in me. And, there are still lots of other decendants of Scots here too. Funny how something like that would carry over and stick, several hundred years later!

That is what I had assumed it to be is a lazy version of slippery. I had never heard it until I moved to PA. The same with prolly. They just bother me..*shrug* How much more difficult is it to say slippery or probably.

But then I had never thought it to be a slang from another country but then again it is still english therefore it is still just a lazy slang.

It also bugs me that a friend of mine can't seem to use our whole names. I am Den and my husband is Bri.

But...when all is said or done in the long run...who cares...it is all pretty unimportant. I just wouldn't ever say it myself.
