is this seriously true? i mean....bwahahahahaha.

if so, i can't believe they added, "bling-bling".

[irwin]

bling-bling: the wearing of expensive designer clothing and flashy jewelry

By their definition of "bling-bling" one could say

That kid over there practices bling-bling.

And I think everyone here knows that that just doesn't make any sense. :2far:

[Freelance Superhero]

so "bling bling" is a noun? i don't think i've ever heard it used as a noun...

oops :blush: i'm a lil rusty on my engrish. depending on context it could be an adj. or verb.....
:confused:

it seems to me that a majority of the time it's used as a noun, as in:

"it's all about the bling-bling"
or
"he has more bling-bling than he knows what to do with"

it is also used as an adverb:
"that outfit is total bling-bling"

[Cantacuzene]

[Showtime]

Its on one of the Lakers Championships rings and a trendy hit rap song from a couple years back but how did it end up in the dictionary. Especially with all the catch phrases that come and go every year.

okay let me rephrase... i don't think bling bling should be a noun, pronoun, adjective, adverb, or ANYTHING of any literary/grammatical value... maybe in a slang dictionary...

[InfiniteNothing]

Okay if anything it's an interjection....just like "wow":
Bling Bling, that's a nice car.
Adjective,
I teach bling bling physics
Noun
How many bling blings do you have today?
Verb
I'm going to bling bling my self into debt
Adverb
That is the most bling bling stupidest thing you've done today

I dare any one to come up with a preposition

[xsiled2]
