Er, \"bastid\" sounds very British, whereas I think the intent wuz morr Soufwestirn. If\'n you katch me driftt.

Wah u yeller bass-tard

 

[Torn blue sky]

Sharp or Card Sharp.

Personally I\'m with the Tim. I\'d call them a cheating Bastard too!

I\'ll chip in with \"cheatin\' varmit\" - a word used only by old cowboys and Mr MacGregor from the Peter Rabbit stories. Although \"dead man\'s hand\" would be a good title too.

 

[farseerlum]

5 aces!

implies cheating.

 

[matty1001]

TBH don\'t call them anything...


...just blow their kneecaps off.

Varmit! That was the word I was looking for! My brain got a cog stuck, so thanks HB for jarring it back in to place. Not that it matters at this point. He\'s probably finished his project and is halfway through another!

 

[Crackpot]

Thanks for all the replies. Didn\'t think it would be so complicated! lol
But \"dead man\'s hand\" sounds really cool! Unfortunately there are only 4 cards to see on the base/mini and I wanted to paint one card upside down. So I think I will paint two cards as ace of clubs and one as ace of diamonds.

Yessah, I surely do. But I thought bastid was American.

Maybe it\'s like ain\'t, which ain\'t the redneckism one might think it is (I sure thought so).

What, like a turkey???

 

[freakinacage]

last hand or dead man\'s hand sound like winners to me

 

[swordtrainer]

a cheating son of a b*tch

This is now a regional swearing thread

Does \"Grockel\" count? As it\'s the only regional word from my neck of the woods I know that MIGHT be used as an insult

I also volunteer \"Monkey hanger\" for Hartlepudlians lol
