ORCUTT-TALK: The Definitive Dictionary. Presented by his good friend, Jason Scott. The civilized world has had a great lacking in terms of its linguistic variety. In upstate NY, there exists an individual name CHRIS ORCUTT who has the unique abolity to create lingo. This great power has been given to only a few lucky individuals (less than 200 in the US) and it must be shown to the free world, to show the examples of the proper way to OT. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- I. Pronunciation Orcutt-Talk (Referred to after this as O-T) is a very involved lingo, and should be attempted by all, but not with the expectation of perfection on the first try. Practice in front of the mirror, and never give up. Oh, by the way, a low voice helps a great deal. The accential origins of O-T are somewhat hard to trace, but the accent itself can be best stated as a Maine-Bronx-Upstate-Brother type. It comes easily with practice, and usually is a result of too much stereo playing with 500-watt speakers. When speaking O-T, keep in mind that looks play a major role. When speaking, always keep a look of either assurance, or greed. The look can make or break you. II. Basics of the Lingo Like most lingos, O-T is used mainly for affirmation, or agreement. The main indicators of agreement are: POWER HARDY HEFTY DEAL! YA KNOW _______ (Prefix, explained later) VOLTAGE WATTAGE VELOCITY ENERGY MOMENTUM YEAH! POWER, (Pow'ah) is one of the more commonly used affirmations, indicating a large amount of status in the opinion of the speaker. It is a large part of the language, due to it's many connotations. POWER can be substituted by VELOCITY (Vel ah'si te), WATTAGE (Wah' tege), VOLTAGE (Vol' tege), MOMENTUM (Me men' tem), and ENERGY (En'ah gee). They all have the same impact in terms of meaning, although individual levels of intensity have to be felt out. POWER and its derivatives have two adjectives, SHEER (Shea') and EXTREME (Extreem') that give them extra boost for those times when extra POWER must be indicated. (Ex: 500 watt stereo is POWER, 500 watt stereo when its at its maximum volume is SHEER POWER) When combined with these words, SHEER and EXTREME create a large amount of connotations and uses: SHEER ENERGY EXTREME WATTAGE SHEER EXTREME VOLTAGE EXTREME MOMENTUM EXTREME VELOCITY EXTREME ENERGY EXTREME WATTAGE, POWER AND ENERGY! HARDY (Hah'dee) indicates objects that are tough, rugged, and built to last. (Ex: Johnny just bought a new jeep with four wheel drive. The jeep is HARDY. The jeep could also exhibit SHEER POWER, but that's something else.) As an affirmative, it shows agreement to a powerful deal. HEFTY (Hef'teh) is a near-synonym for HARDY, except that it usually indicates weight. (Ex: That 200 pound fat kid down the street is HEFTY.) The affirmative of this word is identical to HARDY as well. DEAL! (Deee'aaal!) is nearly defunct, but is mainly kept around to remember the good old days, when Chris started doing this shit. It is a general-purpose agreement word. III. Second-level words The part II words are the most commonly-used ones. These are less frequent, but should not be considered unimportant. YA KNOW [Phrase] (Ya Know'): This prefix is used as a confirmation to the speakers opinion, with several permutations. The speakers could use YA KNOW in the following ways: Confirmation - "YA KNOW it's the greatest, right?" Indication of pleasure - "YA KNOW ya love it" Description - "YA KNOW it rocks" or "YA KNOW it rules" WOOD [Object] (Wud'): This prefix is based on the premise that a wood-carrying vehicle has SHEER POWER. So using this idea, a slew of phrases emerges: WOOD VAN WOOD TRUCK WOOD CAR Please note: These phrases must be said in a very low, almost gutteral voice. This increases impact tenfold. O'GRADYS (Oh Gra'dees) The potato chip. This is used quite a lot to describe pleasure with nearly everything. This is also the official snack food of O-T. IT'S BACK, AND ITS AT ITS BEST: The familiar Bond slogan, used in O-T to describe something that usually isn't considered important, but has somehow gained status. (Ex: Check out that stereo, man. IT'S BACK, AND ITS AT ITS BEST.) Please note: This phrase could also be used with the YA KNOW prefix. (YA KNOW IT'S BACK, YA KNOW ITS AT ITS BEST) IV. Subtitutions Of couse, substitutions of words abound. Here are a few cases: Cars: CHROME-MOLLY, RUST-BUCKET, BADO-MOBILE Skidding the car when accelating too fast: TIRE A very plentiful amount of feces: A WOOD SPLITTING SHIT A large expulsion of gas from the anus: A RIPPER (SHEER POWER!) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- In conclusion, I hope this document has helped you in learning the use of one of the country's great linguists, Chris Orcutt... SO GO OUT THERE AND TIRE, CAUSE YA KNOW IT'S SHEER POWER AND ENERGY, RIGHT? YEAH! YA KNOW IT RULES! CAUSE IT'S BACK AND AT IT'S BEST!
