    Unsolicited peer review time…

    browsing in JD Sports (sports shop)

    *trainer shop, let’s be realistic

    from the “curry club” menu

    The Thursday specials, to be specific.

    called Callum

    *Calum

    Brethren (an old fashioned way of referring to a friend you consider a brother)

    This comes from Jamaican Patois, it’s not just a memetic imitation of Early Modern English.

    No further notes.

                Mandem’s basically in American English as well, we just say it a little different. It’s a shortening of man and them, as in your boys. As Vince Staples says “know a change gone come like Obama 'n them say, but they’re shooting every day round my mama 'n them way”.

                  I need to re-read this when I wake up tomorrow, after coffee.

                  Right now my brain just shut off in the middle of the quote.
