I mentioned this on the recap thread, but did any one else catch David's misuse of the word uppity?

David misused a lot of words last night. I find it quite charming. It's better than hearing the neanderthal-like mutterings from Evan Marriott.Originally Posted by croftchrism

How did he misuse it? I thought he said that Olinda seemed uppity, but he found her attractive and wanted to give her a chance. Am I just stupid or did I miss something? Please explain...Originally Posted by croftchrism

He used the term "uppity" to mean outgoing, upbeat...hyper, if you will as opposed to snobbish.Originally Posted by oneTVslave
Huh. I guessI thought he meant he found her snobbish, but attractive enough to give her a chance. What do I know?Originally Posted by funnygirl422
It's not like the guy is a genius, but he does seem to be nice. Certainly less skeezy than Evan Whats-His-Face. I think he has already blown his cover with the line about flying his horse overseas.Once people realize you are lying about one thing, they suspect you would lie about other things as well. How hard would it be to say you bought the horse in Italy? You are a millionaire, remember?

OTS, that's the way I had interpreted it as well.Originally Posted by oneTVslave

he used "uppity" again in 10/28, in the same "I'm giving her a chance anyway" context, so I think David knows what it means. Which of course is high faluting![]()
Help fight cystic fibrosis or just learn more about it at the cystic fibrosis foundation website, www.cff.org and help give my little guy a better future.
I thought that he used it as a complement again her, as in he was giving her a chance because she is uppity.... but you could be right, and I missed what he meant since I am going on the assupmtion of his low IQ now!!!Originally Posted by LG.
