Footsie and Hooters

I learned some new words yesterday native to England. After school I was in the gym and the (cute) gym teacher (with a fauxhawk and popped collar!) came in and told me that he heard I fancy footsie and asked if during a break in the day tomorrow I would like to meet him for footsie. I had no idea what he was talking about. Apparently footsie means football… we continued our conversation about our favorite sports and teams. I told him that I love the Hoosiers; his eyes got huge, “What?!? you like hooters!” So then I tried to explain the term hoosiers and that no one actually knows what the word means but I think it was lost on him. So I’m off to play some footsie.

  1. Interesting words require more explantion. “Footsie” in my world was akin to sexual harrassment in the office!!!
    I’m not allowed to go into Hooters because my husband doesn’t think it would be proper. Neither of these words in in my British to English dictionary.
    Love, A.J.
