Well, I just wanted to introduce all of you to a secret rahvin and i have been sharing for a while.
*drum roll*
Everyting around us is bubububu, and always will be.
What is bubububu? If you don't know from the start (or "if you don't know from the bu"), you will never know.
Try starting to substitute with "bubububu" (with the italian "u", corresponding to the "oo" sound in english: native anglophones should think "booboobooboo", but 'tis not the original version) everything that has a length of four syllables and the right accents. If your choice word has two syllables, go for "bubu" and if it only has one go for "bu". But remember, "bububu" is forbidden, and every combination with odd syllables save for the simple "bu" is unacceptable.
Although you are probably not impressed, this turns out to be a very funny practice, especially when you sing. Examples:
"A bolt of blazing bu
Lifted from the bubu's edge
Another radiant bu sends new hope"
[As you might see, you're not obliged to substitute every single conformable word, this would be boring: there is creativity in the process].
Or, from VNV Nation's "Fearless":
"I'm not alone
I'm not afraid
I'm bubububu".
This applies to spoken language also: "I don't understand a fuck" can become "I don't understand a bu" and you'll look far less trivial, but the point is that you have to insert the bu's in your ordinary speech: after a while, you'll start realizing that you cannot do without, and your mental landscape will definitely enrich itself with new meanings and suggestions.
Also, when you go to a pub and you have to write your orders on a piece of paper, never forget writing "2 bubububu's": the barman will be extremely confused - if it's one they will think it's a joke, if it's two they will believe it's some menu item they're overlooking - or, better yet, they're bubububu.
