Sure.

Thank GOD! My ions have been giving me terrible gyp.

Not just me then? I need some negative ones.

I thought I had trapped wind. Turns out it was Ions. After wearing one of these bracelets from Team Ionic, I am happy to report sweet **** all. As I would get a better result from chugging a pint of unicorn farts.

That USB thing looks good. My laptop could do with some negative ions.

Complies with EU regulation? I’m in!

whats scary is the amount of pro riders wearing them? it cant all be sponsorship can it?

gyp

What’s that mean. Surely you wanted to use the word jib, no…?

No.

They need Lance Armstrong to endorse them bad boys.

Will TBC be stocking them..???!!!

No

So what does gyp mean…?

Mither

It means pain or discomfort.

Will TBC be stocking them..???!!!

You’d have to kill me first.

So what does gyp mean…?

Short for…

There’s also gyppy, as in gyppy tummy, a term for diarrhoea mostly known in the UK and Commonwealth countries. This does have the same origin as gypsy — a mangled version of Egyptian. Gyppy tummy is noted by Eric Partridge as World War Two services slang for the ailment suffered by British forces in the North African desert campaign, and it was a phrase common in Britain after the War. It seems certain that gyppy was influenced in its creation by the pain sense of gyp, but also built on gyppy or gippy, a slang term for an Egyptian that can be traced back to Lord Kitchener’s army in Egypt in the 1880s and 1890s.

You don’t know what something giving you gyp means?
Really?

‘s okay – I found it…

Gyp

Edit. Okay, Jamie’s is the real gyp, it being an abbreviation. You learn something everyday, dontcha…

So, what does “giving me jib” mean? Never heard that one, had a wee google and the few times it comes up all seem to be people who should be saying gyp 😆

You don’t know what something giving you gyp means?

Quite obviously not.

Problem…?

🙂

Indeed. Jib means to balk, to stop, to cease to go on. I incorrectly presumed it was the word you were looking to use but clearly I was totally wrong.

Hang on. What were we talking about?

Gyp-po:

Infused with Tourmaline. Is that the brand name for EPO?

Hang on. What were we talking about?

Sorry, far be it from me to take it OT. This thread has the scientific potential to not only make us better sportsmen and women, but it may, infact, help us find god.

Hh on what planet do they look like that?

Mine!!!

Problem? Yeah you idiots don’t know what giving you gyp means 😉

but it may, infact, help us find god

That was what the aim was. Honest.

But the key ring “pushes out a whopping 500 negative ions per cm3” That sounds like the best thing ever.

They are also scientifically proven. It doesn’t stipulate what aspect is scientifically proven though, perhaps just the fact the bands exist?

500 negative ions per cm3

Problem? Yeah you idiots don’t know what giving you gyp means

Argh. The cyclic nature of your argument makes my head hurt like a dose of brain-freeze…

Even better – your cyclic argument gives my head some gyp…
