Report your use of Brokieisms in so-called "real life"
Delmardeb:
I was talking to my cousin about religion. I was not sure about what she believed in, and when I asked her she said that she was Penecostal. That was my opening to ask her- "What exactly is the Pentecost?" As I said that, I was laughing to myself because I was thinking about the way that Ennis asked that same question to Jack.
serious crayons:
Delmardeb, that's not a Brokieism you get to hear every day!! :laugh:
So what exactly IS the Pentacost?

You can read about the Pentacost in Acts.
The Pentacost is when the Holy Spirit descended on the Believers. They spoke in tounges and preformed Miracles. Up until that time the Holy Spirit had been in Heaven with the Father and the Son. After Christ Ascended into Heaven the Holy Spirit Descended to be with us on Earth.
The Pentacost was the day that happened.
Now, Some people believe that after the Day of Pentacost people no longer speak in tounges or heal or do any of the things that were don on the day of Pentacost. Some do believe that those things are still to be done and are gifts of the spirit. Those who believe that are called Pentacostals.
Thats my understanding, you results may differ.

Any time the opportunity presents itself, which is pretty often.......I say, "me neither" like Jack said it, and I always think of Jack when I say it, a pleasant thing in itself. ;)

I find most Brokies never lose the opportunity to use the lingo from the film and book as often as
it presents itself.. I find myself using" sure enough "a lot.. and" very good."..They are easy to use in everyday language.
