They have, and probably a long time ago. According to M-W.com its use to express disdain goes back to 1600.

Maybe you should start saying "Fie!"

Alex	11-17-2008 07:15 PM

I suggest adding a trademarkable hand gesture to be said in accompaniment with the utterance. Thereby creating a unique combination you can seek protections for.

I thought the good news would be another Lashpair Planning thread.

...Hmmmm, that gives me an idea...

Or another election 2008 thread.

Is it too soon to open an "Election 2012" thread?

Well, I personally think "dinglecheese" should be in the dictionary.

The language purist in me cries when slang makes it into the dictionary. The last bastion of propriety, the standard, the thing a girl can count on.

Or not.

Alex	11-17-2008 08:33 PM

All words start out as either slang or jargon.

It feels inelegant.

Fie!

That's going to be my word of the day. I think I can get it in as the new hip buzz word around the office to replace "concur". (don't ask me why certain words become funny in the office - they just do).

Seriously. My assistant and I had some hysterical laughter over the word "recusal".... you had to be there.

Thankfully, this one has not taken off outside of Grey's Anatomy (at least that I am aware of).
