“Demi’s linguistic quirk is essentially and definingly female. It just is. Drawing in breath to denounce this proposition, women will often come out with something like, “Up you!” or “Ballshit!” For I am referring to Demi’s use of the conflated or mangled catchphrase – Demi’s speech-bargains: she wanted two for the price of one. The result was expressive, and you usually knew what she meant, given the context.”
