What is a mash banger?

[Drich]

Officially it (mash and bang) is a song by 'twista.'

From what I understand it is a thuggish-gangsta/murder (like someone who would chop your head off with a dull knife)

See if you can get a deeper meaning from these well written lyrics

When I saw the 'mash banger' I thought someone is trying to look a little too 'gangsta,' then I heard him speak, I drew a parallel. So I thought I would have some fun with it. I did, and the other mash bangers (the eaters of actual bangers and mash on this message board) took way too much offense of this play on words to not to have some more fun at their expense, and maybe even illustrate a point or two in the process.

Point being they are only words and 'we' are the only ones who give these words power to build up, tear down, or to simply colorfully illustrate. I learned growing up (not white or black) if you give someone the satisfaction of being offended by something they say in the least little bit, is to give them control over your emotional state.
Over time you give them control over your life.


So with that in mind are their any other 'buttons' you dare me not to push?

Come to think of it, there's not much I can think of that will offend me anymore...
I'd say the younger, less experienced crowd may take things to heart a little more than others...

In fact some of the jokes here are more vulgar than anything I've read in a long time.
(Especially the lady on the train tracks joke!)

Cheers...

Bangers and mash means sausages and potatoes in British colloquialisms.

I don't take offence to it, although it wasn't my favourite dish in the world...

However, sometimes you will find chefs that make it their speciality and then it can be very good...

Especially when starving at a music festival.

I don't know, are their?

Yeah, not buying it, Drich. Here's the more likely scenario:

You thought 'mash banger' was a colloquial term for people from the UK. When UKers (and former UKers) handed you your arse on this one, you did a desperate web search for the term 'mash banger' until you found a result. Since it clearly isn't what you originally thought it was, you proceeded to invent a pretzel-like explanation which you sincerely hoped wouldn't make you look like an utter douche nozzle.

There hasn't been a miscalculation of this magnitude since Richard III told his missus, 'Just off to Bosworth, luv. Back in an hour.'

So sorry, mr. Soddy. My 'story' started a couple weeks ago with my first mash banger thread, when asked what that mean I had some fun with you guys, explaining it was a local Floridian term that described English tourists, I carried this on till stimbo got all bent out of shape, so I let it go. Then I saw an opportunity to dig in again took, it and here we are.

Never once did I think this was an English term. I know what bangers and mash are because we had an Englishman as a service manager for a while. I just know how to get under the skin of a proud people.

Hey. Mr. Mod/Admin/Eldricht God? How does a douche nozzle work?
