lads

BTW, he meant the BSI (Federal IT security agency) and not the BND (foreign secret service, aka the CIA's German stable lads).

Although it may seem silly, I stopped a small, young lad from being picked on by some bigger lads.

Listen lads, there's only a few of us, and 7 billion of them.

Seriously, lads, we now have resources abundant as Sun, thorium reactors and cheap water distillation.

The other 29 lads on the pitch are there for support.

Those lads had no option when they walked into the Guardian.

Going back further, you have programmes like I'm Alan Partridge, Blackadder, Porridge, The Likely Lads and so on.

Sorry lads, if Bitcoin is currency, you have to behave like banks and investment firms if you are going to act like banks and investment firms.

Every adult female is a woman and is entitled to respect as such, but many cultures withhold respect from the males until and unless the lads prove themselves.

Sorry messed that up, you're right that the '74 builder catalog was very inclusive/generic but somehow the '76 one overshadowed this already in my memory (similiar models, strictly for lads).

> He has no clue > No, you have no clue Come on, lads.

This kind of knowledge is illustrated in Frank McCourt's Angela's Ashes when the city born lads see a cow for the first time, and onlooking adults wonder if they are mentally deficient.

For example, where I'm from (West Ireland), the term "Lads" is often used for everyone regardless of gender.

One might hear a lady say she's "Going out with the lads" when describing a night out, with even a mostly female group of companions.

"And so New Yorkers with garden-variety affluence—the kind of buyers who require mortgages—are facing disheartening price wars..." "Competition will continue to drive the wealthy—foreign and domestic—to Brooklyn and middle-class buyers to despair." Add to that the fact that a young middle-class lads and gals start out having already an high debt from the acquired education...

Lads, this tiny bit of freedom is in your hands.
