Talk:bling
Latest comment: 11 years ago by Monty Burns Jr in topic Verb
When I was a child in the 1930s, my father said extra hot days were "blingers". . That name had to do with the screeching noise the "tree-toads" made.
Presently, in the dragon boat community, the term "bling" refers to winning medals as opposed to ribbons or a hand shake; "We're in the ribbon round, missing the bling final be a second."64.251.87.130 16:59, 14 May 2010 (UTC)3C
Verb[edit]
There's a verb meaning too: derived terms bling out and bling up. And something can be described as blinging, meaning something similar to blingy. --Monty Burns Jr (talk) 12:05, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
