I was in a box store a few years ago and I heard a couple of people talking. One said ""I toad him I was going to ..........."". I just laughed out loud to myself and said ""Toad??????"".

Glad to hear that you wouldn't say lippies. It absolutely makes no sense to me.

Hennala I'd never ever use the word "lippies." Feh

I also don't like shortening real words, like "nuke," "veggies," "fridge," etc. I guess I'm old fashioned and prefer to use the proper words as they were intended. Like some people don't like calling people their nicknames {#emotions_dlg.thumbdown}

I must confess I have used the terms ""veggies"" and ""chicky""----I think it came from when my kids were little. I would say------""eat your veggies/chicky""------I plead guilty.
