Seeing all this commotion about GAH! and its inclusion, or the lack of it in polls, I have come to realize how important it is here.

So, I wonder how many have actually used GAH! outside the .org. As an answer to a bad question or in emails to people... ANYTHING!

hmmm no can't say I have.

Even here at the org I don't use Gah a lot.

I use it in everyday conversation. Wherever it's needed, really.

My use of GAH! is directly proportional to the amount of beer I've had. At the end of a long night, it's about all you'll get out of me. :gah2:

On discussion boards at my University. So far no one has asked me what it means. I think it is pretty obvious from context. I might just start using it in public more from now on. :laugh4:

Imagine if this became a regular part of the english language. :2thumbsup:

I used Gah before the org, and by god I'll use it when it's gone!

I've used it a couple of times. Not very often.

I wonder if we can get it crammed into the OED?

Kraxis

I actually thought it was pretty selfexplainatory, so imagine the surprise I got when somebody asked me what I meant when I answered a message with GAH!

And I use it pretty often.

Touche...:furious3:

What on earth is wrong with these n00bs? I've seen 'Gah' much before I joined the Org. I think the first place was in Calvin and Hobbes...:book:

That's the last straw with Wikipedia. Anyone who needs high quality, scholarly information, just tell me the topic. I have access to my School Databases as well as many good Encyclopedias like Groliers, Encyclopedia Americana, etc...

Of course I've used GAH! I've used it way before the Org. I think I also got it from Calvin and Hobbes. It's a great expression for frustration and disgust at what someone just said or asked!

I only very rarely use GAH! here at the org. in posts. I have never used it in 'real' life, however. And I dont' think I intend to either.

I frequently answer polls with it, though. It's often the most appropriate answer to some questions.

Gah is the ultimate interjection in real life! When you don't know whether to say **** or **** or ************ or **** or **** you can always shout GAH!

Only to myself since it doesn't really work in Dutch imho.

so... GAH !!!!

I don`t think I`ve used it in a conversation, but in frustration I have said it "loudly" in front of my computer.

Well, it`s not correct to say it was created on the Org. It might had better chance of surviving if that wasn`t put in.

Well to say GAH out loud would have it sound more like "AH" and that is pretty uniform for most languages I suspect.

Just a thought. Define Gah!

I'll bet there are a few different definitions.

Nope, though I have found myself on the verge of saying LOL a few times, :embarassed: I'm such a geek I may never get another girlfriend.

As for the meaning of Gah:

All options are pants
Who cares

Can't be bothered to think of a witty response

I find myself saying GAH! all the time while I'm driving, usually when a light turns red ahead of me or someone drives slow in the fast lane. Road-rage Gah! :2thumbsup:

.... Define Gah! ...

Gah! = the sound emitted from voice of vicious Tarranakian Warrior while swinging axe down on victim.

Strange that Insane not know this.
