my cousin and i still meet up and play pretty recently. these sessions often lead to new slang, which we are constantly coming up with. we have some pretty funny terms for tetri-lated concepts. my favorite is for tetrises- we called em "dingers" for the sound they make. two in a row is a "double dinger" or "double dingy." when drunk i refer to myself in the third person as "king of ding." this is also where we came up with blowing a tranny, and "O face" (a flood of O blocks). you guys have any tetris slang you wanna add to this ever increasing list?
"King of ding" ? That's funny. Nothing to add from me, I just randomly say "Boom! Tetris" when I get one with a nice recovery.
me and my bro use a lot of slang "ship it...!!"(when throwimg a line to the far wall for a tetris) "show me the money!!!"...(when ready/waiting for the tetris) "tuck rule."..when a tuck is needed ...i cant think of any more right now.... Also "throw the jew down the well" ...self explanatory. ..movie line from borat.
"blowing a tranny"..... I love it!!! Uh, the name that is I used to ALWAYS call the 'I' block the 'cock-piece' - I have only just recently stopped calling it that I actually 'stole' the name from http://www.arkmay.com/tetris - thanks for the link morningpee; didn't even know that site was still up Very happy to see that it is though; so much nostalgia there - Jono
