Have you used GAH! outside the .org?
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!
You may not care about war, but war cares about you!
Re: Have you used GAH! outside the .org?

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

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.

Yes, many times. Sometimes to myself though
Re: Have you used GAH! outside the .org?
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.
Imagine if this became a regular part of the english language.

I used Gah before the org, and by god I'll use it when it's gone!
When Adam delved and Eve span, Who was then the gentleman? From the beginning all men by nature were created alike, and our bondage or servitude came in by the unjust oppression of naughty men. For if God would have had any bondsmen from the beginning, he would have appointed who should be bound, and who free. And therefore I exhort you to consider that now the time is come, appointed to us by God, in which ye may (if ye will) cast off the yoke of bondage, and recover liberty. - John Ball
Re: Have you used GAH! outside the .org?
I've used it a couple of times. Not very often.

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

Re: Have you used GAH! outside the .org?
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.

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...
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...
Re: Have you used GAH! outside the .org?
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!

Four stage strategy from Yes, Minister:
Stage one we say nothing is going to happen.
Stage two, we say something may be about to happen, but we should do nothing about it.
Stage three, we say that maybe we should do something about it, but there's nothing we can do.
Stage four, we say maybe there was something we could have done, but it's too late now.
Re: Have you used GAH! outside the .org?
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!
When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown,
The dream is gone.

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!
