What Gives? 1. a common greeting. 2. "What's happening?", "What did I do to make you say or do that?" 3.="What's new?" perhaps the literal translation of the German "Was ist los?" ("What's the matter?" )
Example: "Holy Cow, Wilma...What gives?"
Clarification: "Excuse my sudden exlamation of shock, Wilma, but did I say or do something to upset you?"
I think you should start a caption competition.
ReplyDeleteI reckon that chap is saying;-
"Don't go in there dear....I had curried beans last night!"
Jeepers Creepers Wilma, she means nothing to me! Why it was just a little peck on the cheek!
ReplyDeleteI think that's a great idea kippers. I'll work on something like it!
