Because smaller versions of anything makes a girl think (at least on some level) that it is a "baby" version.  Most girls love babies.  Puppies are cuter than dogs.  Miniature dogs get to have "puppy" status their whole life.  Fact is the smaller something is, the more a girl wants to take care of it.\n\nConcerning cute small stones... that's just weird.

I think it is a southern thing.  I am from the south and I hear it all the time.  You are right it is a bad saying.  But, it for the most part it is said jokingly.

They're all right, just the same as every other culture.\n\nAlso, some of them have really cute accents.

Yes, especially if you say it to a girl.

You probably heard this already but I'll say it anyway because I only heard the whole thing After I'd left school and it cracked me up as being SO true.\n\nThose who can, do.\nThose who can't, teach.\nand\nThose who can't teach, teach gym.\n\nIt's an unfair generalisation a lot of the time but not all the time. \n\nAnd what are you trying to do to us blokes with that description of your old uniform?!!!!\n\nI can tell you, it's quite effective.

Nothing that elaborate. It's mostly from the schools that are already standing and how crowded they are.

The only one that I know is "ZUT!" - which means darn...so, yeah.\nAnd I don't know what you mean by saying: elegant french swearing words or swearing in a unharmful way. That's kind of contradictive. Besides, I don't think that your teacher would appreciate you swearing in his/her class, since it IS still school.\nDon't kill the french language (people have already demeaned it enough...)

Great question!!!\nMaybe it has something to do with the way that even babies can express happiness this way!  But we teach it to them, right?\nHey, at least it's something we can all do at the same time, in our own seats, without having to have a script so we can all say "THATWAS*****GREAT!!!" and actually be heard.

It is a kind of "Grammar contest", in which the best students in each school participate.\n\nBy the way, it appeared in The Simpsons once.

Well it depends, in my personal opinion, I don't mind it at all when a girl says that too me. But however, it depends how much I like the girl. Like if it is a girl I barely know and is kinda weird, and they tell me I am hott er something, I will be like thanks and such, but it seems a bit weird. If you want to say it to someone, ask yourself how well do you know him, are you good looking, and do you know if he likes you. If he likes you, then definitaly do it. If not, then well you might want to think twice.

Galin, you are so right!! I am a stickler for correct spelling,punctuation,etc. Makes you wonder sometimes how much these people actually listen and retain what they hear in school. I am proud that you {a smart person} are on answers. Keep the comments coming!!
