Do or do not. There is no try. Member  |
I think it's a Midwestern thing? So many places are so out in the middle of nowhere, they might as well be Egypt? Where the Bumble-Fuck (or bum-fuck or butt-fuck) comes from, I've no idea.

I've heard "out in the middle of BFE", which stands for Big Fukin' Egypt (ie middle of the desert or no where).

I've heard the "bum-fuck" bit, but not the Egypt bit?

I've never heard the Egypt part tagged on to it, just butt-fuck or bumble-fuck, sometimes east bumble-fuck.
------ "Cynicism masquerades as wisdom, but it is the farthest thing from it. Because cynics don't learn anything. Because cynicism is a self-imposed blindness, a rejection of the world because we are afraid it will hurt us or disappoint us. Cynics always say no. But saying 'yes' begins things. Saying 'yes' is how things grow. Saying 'yes' leads to knowledge." ~Stephen Colbert |

I also have heard "bum-fuck" but without the Egypt bit. ~ We're just babies making up a game, if you're right. But...babies playing a game can make a play-world which licks your real world hollow.

Ooh, Mega Bus- it looks like if I don't need to leave on the first bus in the morning (they're pretty much express through to Chicago) it'll be $60 round trip.

Here in the Boreal forests, we say "Butt-Fuck, Texas", or "Butt-Fuck, Arkansas". (When we're not saying "Saint-Louis de la Fin de la Carte" or "Saint-Creux des Loins", that is.)

I always refer to it as "East Jabib," which I made up as a catch-all "somewhere that no-one actually knows where it is."

I've never heard of this bu-fu thing... I must be out of the loop...
But also, I live around Chicago parts. Of course, I believe end of June/beggining of July I'll be on summer break, so who knows where I'll be... but anyway, meeting up would be cool, and odds are I will be around Chicago during that time... ~Nyssa: Shapeshifter extraordinaire~ ~~~-------~~~ Cthulhu for president~Why vote for the lesser evil? -------~~----- "Of course I'm paranoid, everyone's trying to kill me!" - Weyoun ~~~------~~~ You are an Illuminator.
