Anyway, there has been so much talk of economonys on the news recently, that one excellent blogger has labelled it "economy-porn". Therefore, here are some words you should know:
(the) Eurozone - where Frenchwomen loved to be touched
Double-dip - something to do in the Eurozone
Bounce-back - a last resort activity with a willing Frenchman if there are no willing Frenchwomen available
AAA rating - really soft XXX film
Quantitative easing - the effect a strong cup of coffee has when combined with a fried breakfast and a cigarette
Toxic loans - suppose your mate lends you some money, and you use it to buy a can of Special Brew. That's a toxic loan.
Keynesian endpoint - something he was very proud of
Tax - another word for pins
Debt ceiling - a roof made entirely from things that other people have lent you, and you're obliged to return
Interest rate - giving a grade out of ten for something that you paid attention to, probably on Facebook
Cash cow - the female equivalent of a cheque bull
GDP - Gross domestic products. In the case of Scotland, that's things like haggis and blood pudding.
Greenbacks - A type of frog
Tenner - the highest male voice within the modal register
Now that I have published the bestest A-Z of economic terms, I probably won't have time to write for this blog often, as I'm sure to be offered a job at The Economist. Probably editor.
So, all of you losers can kiss my lagrangian multiplier.
