Title: People who yell out, "Hoolg! Hoolg!"
Post by: bandit957 on May 06, 2018, 05:12:08 PM
I vaguely remember that when I was growing up (I was maybe 12 or 13), there was a kid (I don't remember if he was a classmate or a neighbor kid) who used to yell out, "Hoolg! Hoolg!" He was supposedly a normal, well-adjusted kid, but every so often, for no apparent reason, he declared, "Hoolg!"

Have any of you ever done this?

Must just be around you.  Never heard it, never did it, never heard of it till your post.

I think he was choking.

... and attempting to call "help", no doubt?

He was probably chewing gum somewhere he wasn't allowed to. Was he shaped like a Speak'n'Spell?

Is it bad that the title and OP made me start laughing?

Nope, never heard of the "hoolg" personally, although random dabbing (which I still don't get) is just as bad and has been going on among the born-in-the-00s generation for what seems like well over a year now.

Maybe he was just working on his Professor Backwards impression.

Well, now I've just done it, for the sake of being the first here to do it. :sombrero:

From what I can gather, Bono did the first dab in history - almost 30 years ago.  :biggrin:  :-P

No but I heard somebody yell "Poolog! Poolog!" in North Carolina once.
