helping you remember SAT definitions... the dirty way

ubiquitous


       ubiquitous (adj.) – existing everywhere

for your edification:  This one’s great, because you get to do a little acting.  Let’s examine our word, shall we?  It’s pronounced  [yoo-bik-wi-tuhs], but that’s a little boring, don’t you think?  I have a suggestion for you.  This is where you get to put on your pretend beret and hop up on a fake stage and maybe even walk with an imaginary limp if you want.  Whatever – it’s freestyle, man.  This time, let’s say our word again, but this time try pronouncing “ubiquitous” as though you are saying, “You better quit us,” except that you say it like this:  “You beh’ quit us!”  You get to pretend you’re one of those tough guys (or gals) who’s so fracking cool that you don’t even say “better.”  You say “beh’.”  Because, really, in the long run, who has time to say “better”?  “Beh’” takes far less time and makes you sound like such a badass.  Anyway, when you say, “You beh’ quit us," you are saying it to someone who is ubiquitous, for that person seems to exist everywhere.  That person is all up in your shizlumps.  That person drinks stalker juice for breakfast.  That person would like nothing more than to clean, massage, and wear your skin. That person is ubiquitous.

Examplification: Birthmark Tony:  That Angie girl has been following us around all week.  It's like she exists everywhere!  

Paco:  I know, dog.  Every time I turn around, she’s just there, all up on us like a ubiquitous disease.

Angie:  Hey, guys!

Birthmark Tony:  Girl!  You beh’ quit us!

Angie:  Guess what?  I made waffles.  They’re in the shape of your faces.  Anybody need a foot rub?
