[ExI] creepy, was: RE: child marriage, usa

[SR Ballard]

> And what if… a woman gets tired of being non-creepy and gives it up?  Why don’t we have words that sound like they go together: creepy old woman?

The phrase would be “creepy old lady”. In the vernacular, “old man” and “old lady” are set phrases. 

> And what is it with people going?  It seems we don’t say.  I recall at one time hearing young people relate a discussion thus:  He said {such and such} then she said {so and so.}  But now it’s: He goes {yakkity yak} then she goes {bla bla}.

And see, my generation would say “was like”:

He was like {such and such}, but then she was like {so and so}.
