A saying that I just don't get
"Half a fag."
I've heard this in numerous moives, often those involving Italian mobsters, and it was in a book I finished the other day. It's usually along the
lines of "turn him into half a fag or something." Half a fag? I just don't get it.

Ya, "bi" is bullshit. "Half a fag" is a diss. Unless it's smoked "half a fag". Do people in England really call smokes "fags"? Still today? And why?

I remember a SUBHUMANS song where they said that. Or maybe it was "SMOKED 10 FAGS" or something. When I first heard that song I thought it was a gay
prostitute thing. Like the singer was down and out and needed some cash or something.

ciggarettes are fags only in England right?
I think the term is an insult more like "you throw like a girl" than "you suck dick"

i *think* it's a general uk thing but i could be wrong.
wikianswers says...
-The term "fag" is also short for Middle English "Fagge," or to droop. A fag is a student at a British public school who is also required to perform
menial tasks for a student in a higher class.
-In British English, it means to drudge or do fatiguing or tedious work.
As previously stated, it means a cigarette and is short for the term "fag end," which means the butt of a cigarette. And it also means the last and
worst part, the frayed end of a length of cloth or rope, an inferior or worn-out remnant or a broken thread in cloth, something that hangs loose.

So the term for the cigarette isn't just an abbreviation of "faggot" which means "bundle of sticks" aka kindling?

a "half a fag" is a guy who obviously gets pussy,but sculpts his eyebrows...
for lack of a better analogy.
the guy who's a "friend of female" (ie: COCK BLOCKER),and not only keeps a journal,but tells you he KEEPS A JOURNAL.
and,most likely,can not only wear,but actually FIT in is "girlfriend's" clothes.
Will learn to Tap Dance,eventually...Will have you broads Hula,definitely...Trust me,you'll see.
