Rank

RANK.

I thought I would bring you another British Slang term:

Rank = Something disgusting.

So if you ever told by a Brit that you are rank or your cooking is rank, this is a bad thing.
I was inspired to do another cartoon in honour of the theme rank. What could depict rank better than one of my phlegm babies, remember that lovely term I used when I was coughing up copious amounts of mucus? Well here is a cartoon one.

    That phlegm is definitely rank!

  2. That cartoon certainly expresses the theme. I did a different sort of British "rank"

  3. I signed Mr Linky early - I won't have my post up for another couple hours.

    This is one British slang term I could interpret without help!

    Happy MM!

  6. I didn't know that "rank" is typical british, I thought Americans would use it too, or maybe there are no rank people over there, lol ?

  7. I think "rank" in this context, is pretty much a universal term! At least, I knew what it meant anyway so, figuring if I knew that then oodles and oodles and OODLES of others know that too!

  11. Hotep! Great MM post. I wonder if they will make a movie after your cartoon hero?

    My MM:Rank post goes back to a military theme, however, I continue to provide African American history insights as part of this weekly meme. I hope you enjoy it.

    peace, Villager

  12. Hee hee hee...phlem baby. :) That's funny.

    I've used "rank" in that way too, as in, "Your cooking is rank".
