Bring Da Ambalamps!

Leave it to an ignorantic to make up a word for the emergency vehicle that gets them to the hospital. When we use the word, it is called an ambulance but to a chronic ignorantic, it is called an ambalamps. Let's break this down ignorantic style [AM - BA - LAMPS]. Now, let's break it down for us [ AM- BU- LANCE]. Do you see any similarities? Well, the similarities stop with "AM"...after that, the word "ambalamps" just becomes a work of fiction.


Toddlers were taught about emergency vehicles like police cars, fire engines, and the ambulance. It was a challenge for the toddler to say the word, but they said it, and eventually, before grade school, they made "ambulance" a part of their vocabulary. However, when an ignorantic is taught this word, they struggle with the "bu" because it sounds like "Boo" and "lance" because it is someone's name. Remember, pronunciation for the ignorantic becomes synonymous with word association. So, if they want to call an ambulance, it is confusing for them to have to think of someone's "Boo" named "Lance". Therefore, rather than attempt the correct pronunciation, they create a word that is comfortable and simple to say...something like AM BA LAMPS. Makes sense right?

 


When this ignorantic got the tar beat out of him on a public bus by a 67 year old man, he was asked if he was "ok". He replied "No, bring da ambalamps". Thus, the resurgence of the ignorantic term "ambalamps". It has now become a word entry in the urban dictionary and a source for YouTube virility and remixes.

Now, if you have never heard this term used by an ignorantic, then "congradulations", you may be in the ignorantic-free zone!
