Note the "jeeze" part No comments Permalink Share No comments. I think from the film "Thelma and Louise"; Thelma says definitely says "Geez Louise" to Louise, I think it originates from that film rather than being a phrase beforehand that the scriptwriters used. And if my American geography is right, then the word "geez" would be used in the same sorta area as the film is set. I say "geez louise" but not "geez". T here is a movie from the 80's called Teen Witch about a teenager named Louise who, at the age of 16, gets magical powers which she uses to become popular.
Her best friend, who gets frustrated at being left behind says "Geez Louise" in the movie. I think that might be where it originates from. Y ou're all going to think I'm lying, but I am telling the God's honest truth. I used to hear people use the Name "Jesus Christ" like it was some kind of swear word and I thought how I could get the power of the emotion they want to express but not use the name of Christ in vain.
I took the first part and it sounded like "Geez. I originally wanted to use a man's name but couldn't find any that rhymed exactly e. Geez, Maurice. Tina Louise" as Ginger. Later, she and Dawn Wells Mary Ann appeared on a television commercial and I like to think that the big wink she gave at the end was intended for me. I started saying it around my friend's house and my friend's wife started saying it. She took it to work with her and I guess it spread like wildfire.
It even made it to the movie Shawshank Redemption and now it is in dictionaries. Some people tried telling me they've used it for years before it was coined in the mid's and I tell them, no, it only seems like you used it before then.
Daughter: "Jeez dude! You're going to have, like, 50, lbs of garlic on your pasta. Me: "Still wouldn't be enough.
And I thought, jeez , does he hafta do that every time he leaves the house? I thought, jeez , if I got struck by lightning, I wonder how long it will take for someone to find my body.
New Word List Word List. Save This Word! We could talk until we're blue in the face about this quiz on words for the color "blue," but we think you should take the quiz and find out if you're a whiz at these colorful terms. Bummed because Michiganders didn't seem to have an accent. You could hear a great accent in the south, y'all. Da Noo Yorkiz New Yorkers have a great one, too.
