A big hot dog, two bags of potato chips, a chocolate bar and a pop is not a good supper.

That apparently the phrase "bow chicka wow wow" is actually supposed to mean something and that I am supposed to magically know what it means. The first person I asked just laughed at me. :? :scratch:

If someone tells me what it means then I will have completed my new thing I learned today.

Hmm.. I looked it up in the online Urban Dictionary as I'd never heard it before. Here's the definition they give:

"verbal means of referencing a sexual encounter, act or deed. Also used to identify someone or thing that is sexual."

i thought that bow chicka wow wow thing was just a random noise used to advertise fast food. i dont really want to be eating sexual fast food.

today in history class i learned that the vikings were really really mean and this was because they lived in scandinavia where it is really cold and the weather is bad. this is a university history class by the way.

Also found this on Yahoo: Bow chicka wow wow is: "a verbal representation of a wah-wah pedal on an electric guitar. A wah-wah pedal produces odd bend (bow & wow) and crunch (chicka) sounds. A 'Boom' is too pure a percussive sound. While often associated with funk and groove style music, in this context 'bow chicka wow wow' has its roots in the cheesy, treble-heavy white funk of old pornographic movies."

I understand it to be the music they play in certain types of movies when a guy sees a sexy girl appear on the scene. It was recently used in the Lynx bodyspray adverts in that sort of context.
