Quo vadis?........... girlish talk?

As it is commonly known that girls like to talk while guys are utmost much more monosyllabic. The following is a sample of how girls can have an endless twitter. Those two girls in the story meet in the city after work. After a wordy "hi" and "how are you?" and a chatter about newest lipsticks and rumour in the circle of friend Girl A starts asking:

A: where are you going?

B: to the cinema.

A: what movie is run there?

B: Quo vadis?

A: what does Quo vadis? mean?

B: where are you going?

A: to the cinema

B: what movie is run there?

A: Quo vadis?

B: what does Quo vadis? mean?

A: where are you going?

B: ................

etc. ...............

Lol. Hope I did not step too deep into the grease pot...................

  • You are welcome, Zivi!

    And yes, it is tricky.

  • Dear Miss zzina, of course, you are right. It is an exxaggaration of a stereotype. Not meant to be a serious statement.

    Thanks for your always alert eyed reading where ever injustice seems to pop up.

  • Roman, thanks for your good suggestion.

    Though B answered pretty correct translating "Quo vadis?" to "Where are you going?". Please take a look here:

    Well is a bit tricky, isn´t it?

    Quo vadis?
    Quō vādis? (Classical Latin: [kʷoː waːdɪs], Ecclesiastical Latin: [kwo vadis]) is a Latin phrase meaning "Where are you marching?" It is also common…
  • Mary,

    Thank you for sharing that video!

    I laughed a lot because of watching it, during a bus trip.

  • Hi Zivi!

    I think, you should have mentioned before the start of their conversation, that "A" was about to go to the cinema too!

    This is how, I thing they should talk in case if "A' didn't want to go to the cinema:

    A: Where are you going?

    B: To the cinema.

    A: What movie is run there?

    B: Quo vadis?

    A: What does "Quo vadis?" mean?

    B: Where are you going?

    A: I asked you first. So tell me what does "Quo vadis?" mean?

    This is how, I think they should talk in case if they both wanted to go to the cinema:

    A: Where are you going?

    B: To the cinema.

    A: Oh, great, me too! What movie is run there?

    B: Quo vadis?

    A: What does "Quo vadis?" mean?

    B: Where are you going?

    A: Hey, please answer to my question first and then I will tell you the name of the movie that I want to watch :D

    In your dialog it seems that "A" knows about the meaning of "Quo vadis?" before asking.

  • lol Mary, pretty stereotype, isn´t it?

    As about your cliche games: Have you ever seen the movie "the naked gun:From the files of police squad"? You can see thre how men communicate. Btw. they do not scratch, they weigh ........... lol in order to see who is the biggest bull in the stadion. lol

    Hey Rose, thanks for finding my blog evil. Lol, that was exactly what I wanted to be. I am pretty keen on seeing whether I got some bops on da head. :-D Anyway, German sense of humour. Pretty male one. :-D

    Hey Panie, hope you were able to enjoy the blog text, too. at least a bit. Not to hope you´d agree. :-D

    yep, Hurieh, pretty silly blog. Thus I wrote it. Thought one could a bit ease the blog site upwith meaningless rubbish. But the guy you mean probably is the king of monosyllabic guys LOL  

  • Hi Zivi, here is another talk between two girls (women).


    Mary: Jane, I have a bad news.

    Jane: Me too.

    Mary: What’s your bad news?

    Jane: My husband cheated on me.

    Mary: Oh, then I have a good news.

    Jane: What?

    Mary: I hit him with my car.

  • Also, I know a guy who does monologues! Isn't it odd? hahahahahaha

  • Hi Zivi, 

    You should practice more to be funny! A silly blog! LOL

  • Oi there, 

      WOW...so doggone good to have Mary back to MyEC, the spice of all chats and comments to blogs...:)
