[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've heard "blow off" (to ignore or dismiss) in a sermon. Also, "sucks" is part of our vernacular but has the same derivation relating to oral sex. Both inappropriate in business settings. [/quote] I don't hear blow off as sexual at all. Blow off has a lot of other meanings (blow off steam), and blow off with your definition to me came from wheat harvest, where you blow off (discard or dismiss) the unnecessary chaff to keep the grain (what you need).[/quote] This. Now, if the person said "that blows," that's inappropriate and rude. (Like "that sucks" -- which everyone under 40 uses freely at my agency. It's hard to remember not to say it when my boss says it ...)[/quote]
