babspanky Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 I just stumbled into this thread, but I'm going to assume that you're looking for a definition and this isn't a quiz or something? Another MFCer asked me about this in the summer. I think it is pretty much an American thing although Canadians use it too. It means benches of outdoor seats, used by spectators to watch an event. Toronto used to have a baseball stadium and there would be nice seats (individual chairs) for most of the section but then there would be cheap bleachers up at the very top and you could sit anywhere on the benches. The correct spelling is bleachers. Yeah like the seats in the video for Summer Nights (Grease)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Yeah like the seats in the video for Summer Nights (Grease)! Yeah you'll find them at virtually every high school in North America. They set them up around the track to watch track and field events or for fans to watch (American) football games. I was in the underground of a large Canadian bank complex a couple of weeks ago (the area is the Toronto equivalent of Wall Street) and they had bleachers set up so people could watch the Olympics on big screen TVs. Very bizarre! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silver Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Be aware though... it's kissing with tongues didnt want you to suddenly have a random tongue in your mouth and be shocked... Never heard "snog" used to mean specifically kissing with tongues - that's "French kissing" This going to one of those regional things, isn't it?

jodi_ice Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Only if the regions are anything north of the watford gap Seriously i've never heard it not to be.... lol I think i'd be somewhat disturbed if someone said 'can i french kiss you?' or maybe it's an age thing? i know tweenies tend to call snogging 'sexing' round here...

Perhaps I'm just showing my age then But here in rural Berkshire snogging means just ordinary kissing. Not heard "sexing". I've heard it called "x-ing" though - which I assume is a backwards derivation from "x" for kiss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
