Do People Outside The Us Say Bm?

[jmetal88]

Hm... According to the urban dictionary, it can also mean 'birth mother'.

 

[Javacat]

have you ever used it in conversation? Not me ... It's nobody's fucking business if I need to relieve myself ... I don't announce it, nor disguise it in obscure abbreviations. If I need to go, I simply say "excuse me, I need to use the bathroom".

Me neither. I normally say "I'm going for a crap".

 

[Goity]

Am goin tet bog.

No no, it makes perfect sense:

* Blood glucose. From Boehringer Mannheim test. A blood glucose testing strip made by the German pharmaceutical company.

I have never heard of bm. ever. so I would have to say that nobody uses that term, at least in NY :huh:

 

[DemonStar55]

I think the real question is does anyone besides you say BM, because I live in the US and have never heard it.

 

[WarmFluffyUK]

I'm Welsh and I have no idea what BM is.

Oh to turn the tables, why do people in the U.S. think that England covers the whole of GB? Britain has more than one country in it, and I'm in Wales not England . I mean, you would love me for sarcastically saying all Americans live in Canada, it's part of the same rock so it's the same place isn't it?

Edit: I'm so retarded. Just reread WFUK's post and it didn't say what I thought it did - too early in the morning :blink:

I usually just say UK. Is that the correct way to refer to the whole island?

All your Wales are belong to us!

 

[ste_167]

Great Britain is England, Scotland and Wales. The British Isles includes Ireland as well.
The United Kingdom is England, Scotland and Wales plus other places the UK government rules over including Northern Ireland and Gibraltar etc.

No that's Whales you're on about, and they live in the sea, not in the UK .

 

[michaeljustman]

Forgive my ignorance, but are they not like the states we have in the US? I say that I live in Texas, but you all know that that means I live in the US.

Nope, individual states would be equivalent to our Counties. i.e. I live in county called Ceredigion, and that's in Wales which is a country.

As an interesting fact, do you know the Welsh are the original Britons?
