@tody hot damn you might be right!

[SamD]

@cyclops I’m getting the feeling there might be a few disappointed people out there if this shirt turns out not to be a new “pixilated” colourway

[SamD]

@will6er without giving too much away, I can confirm that the pants I’m teasing in the video are NOT baker pants. The plot thickens…

[Tago Mago]

@SamD such a tease

[SamD]

@Tago-Mago Ha ha, I should probably keep schtum from now on, so I don’t get myself into trouble

[goosehd]

@SamD new word of the day. Thank you

[Chibs]

@goosehd I had to look it up too
How the hell do you pronounce it?

[SamD]

@Chibs I didn't realise it was such a British saying

[SamD]

Can anyone think of a tougher Iron Heart jacket (past or present)?

[Larkens]

@SamD sounds almost a bit Dutch/ German. We have the word 'stom' with the same* meaning, Interesting!

• well, it can also mean: stupid, but can also be used mute: a movie without dialogue is a 'stom(me)' movie. And someone without speech can also be 'stom'.

Its Yiddish, which is a hybrid of german and hebrew. I always thought using these words in english was mainly a NY kind of thing though..

some examples that come to mind
going for a shwitz - go to the sauna (from schwitzen, to sweat)
a smier - putting cream cheese on a bagel (from schmieren, to smear)
stum - to be quiet about something (from Stumm, mute)
drek - dirt (from Dreck, dirt)

but theres a whole wikipedia page for those of course

I suspect it's used in southern English almost exclusively and probably comes from London. I'm southern and live in the north/midlands and use it myself but never hear other people using it. Historically there was a significant European Jewish minority in London.

@tenuin That’s funny. After watching the pronunciation vide I thought to myself it totally sounded like Yiddish!
