"suss"?
Suspicious? Sassy?

It's British slang for 'realize' or 'grasp'.


He used it as an adjective though

EDIT:
Damn! Expected to be ninja'd again. That's why I didn't append this to the previous post.

Yeah, it just means suspicious here.
Actually I think we use it as a verb as well, but meaning to look/check. Goddamn Australian slang.

"Associate" sounds really suss, though...

Edit: Well, probably less suss than "partner". Suss in a different way, at least.

Yeah, "associate" generally means they're your partner in an illegal business (of the mafia and/or drug-dealing sort).

...Or possibly that they work for you in some low-paying dead end job like a cashier or a ticket taker or something.

In either case it doesn't express what is inyended

I'm doing some writing. One of my characters is having to react to several unusual things in a row. I couldn't think of more than one reaction so I copy-pasted it twice.
I'm starting to think that "unique" writing style people say I have is less good than it might actually be.

Oh jeez, I just wrote an entire conversation involving characters repeating each other with a bunch of insipid deja vu jokes splattered around. What am I doing with my life.

I think I've seen this concept before

(actually I really have encountered it before; once on an episode of Garfield and Friends and another on Monty Python

My favourite local bar is doing an event with FREE TACOS on Valentine's Day and according to the event page anywhere from 1,000 to 5,800 people might show up. O.o
