Title: The Origin of QUAH?
Post by: Casper1 on October 31, 2005, 03:05:24 PM
I think I might have stumbled upon the origin of the AH elitist word used by this community's finest:

http://www.ebaumsworld.com/screamscare.html    :rofl

If so, YAY for me.  If not, would the "QUAH'ers" explain without using the word QUAH?

No fishing allowed in this pond...  :cry

If you mean only people with no social skills and no understanding of how to interact with others start screaming out this word and thinking it's funny, then yes. [EDIT: Not sure which emoticon to put in here, I'll use this one: :rofl ]

But the origin is a misguided attempt to imitate Bruce Lee in his martial arts moves, only he doesn't say this ever, he makes different shorter, clipped sounds, so I have no idea how they claim that its from Bruce Lee.

Dedalos: I'm not known for saying it, no. the sound I usually make during martial arts moves is more like an short "aye!" or "ai!".

The thread sure is a classic but IMO this "quah!" bs started to sound stupid right after that thread was buried the first time, though.

Furball I use Miss Ava so people won't read my posts....LOL....

My last post wasn't a whine, just burnt out on hearing it is all. Fun the first 1000 times, the next 100,000 times got old is all. But that's just my 2 cents is all.  :)

My post wasn't a whine either. Furball just does that whenever people post in a way that doesn't agree with what he said seconds before.

Professor of the "Quah" (http://econ.lse.ac.uk/staff/dquah/)

You can buy Quah, the album, here (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00007L4P2/103-8627225-8307036?v=glance)

This guy has a whole website dedicated to reporting QUAH (http://www.thequahreport.com/)

I hope that clears this up.

Last seen about six months ago.  He went to College, and got into girls, I think.

I personally miss him.  Great sense of humor.  Wise far beyond his 18 years.
