I tried to post this in the episode guide discussion but couldn't

My question anyhow.....I know there's been episode about high talkers, long talkers and close talkers, but what about an up talker?

I've seen reference to it, but I've been unable to find the episode about an up talker.

What's an up talker? It's a trait stereo typically in young females, usually white, upper-class demographic in North America, as seen in the movie Clueless, known as 'up-talk'. Linguistic studies have shown that it's used to signal information that is new to the listener. So, for example, if an up-talker is telling you about what happened when she went to the mall yesterday, and you already knew that she had gone but not what she had done there, she might say this:

"So, I went to the mall yesterDAY. And I saw this GUY? And he was, like, really CUTE? And then I went HOME. And then he called ME?"

...Why would anyone eat canned fruit? I mean can anybody answer that?

What the Hell are you talking about, highlifesipper? You popping pills? You got the crazies again?

No I dont' have the crazies....Just want to know if anyone remembers an episode about an "up talker".

Those nutty North American demographics can really get you to hallucinate.

It is time for highlifesipper to see Herb and Dan. Although they might not be able to help him with his obsession of lactating women.

Danielle is gay, but it's certinally possible that Mr. herb might be able to help, however, I know that I'm uncomfortable speaking with him because he refers to his bananas as yellows.

And, he's an up talker.

Who so belongs only to his up-talk, references only popenjays and mumbo jumbos. Thomas Carlisle, 1864.

I can see the can if you're in the army, but fresh fruit, it's available, it's there, it's 2 aisles over.

Congratulations, Mookie. You googled "up-talk".

The question is, "when do I need to eat this fruit, now or later"? Because fruit's a gamble. I know that going in. No... I need the secure packaging of aluminum.

With that kind of packaging you can pick up unscrambled cable..

You mudder futkers have absolutly nothing....nothing to do!

Are you azz wholes going to answer my question?

My mudder was a mudder.

No! Next question!

Good answer!

I like you Jimmy. You're great! You are so great

Mookie, are you always wound up this tight, Honey, or do you loosen up? There's the next (2) questions for you!

And Todd, you remind me of that little dog in the Warner Bros. cartoons that follows Spike around!

This forum so great! This is so great! I'm so excited! I'm going to hang out for a while! This is do great!

Wound-up? Hey buddy, I'm looser than c r e a m e d c o r n.

Heckler called you Honey, Mookie,...so I'm assuming some things from the get go.

I would appreciate it if he would say he's sorry.

Well, that's the way I express myself. How are you gonna make it in this business if you can't take it?
