Did you watch it several times like a hungus?

[@Tracymmo]

In the US Midwest we say "yeah, no." It's a way of saying "yes, I heard your request, but sorry, I just can't agree to it." I've also lived in New York, where the same thing is "f--- no!" They're a bit more direct.

[@honkzabey5600]

Reminding me of Borat😂

[@nikiTricoteuse]

Small world! That's pretty much exactly the meaning behind it here as well. We also use many variations of the second version when we're not even pretending to be polite.

[@v.s.947]

In Austria we say something like that too: "Jo eh..." The meaning is the same.

[@andrewolive5870]

something not mentioned in this video is that in New Zealand we also say stuff like "nah, yeah" or "yeah, nah, yeah" which both typically mean "Yes" lol

[@claremiller9979]

Then you've got the classic Aussie phrase which likely also exists in NZ and elsewhere, that double positive equally a negative - "Yeah, right."

[@skyebates246]

@@owainharris Hard case makes no sense to be used to describe a funny person lol

[@michaelheliotis5279]

@@skyebates246 The general sense of it is about intensity. If a person's intensely menacing, they're a hard case. Similarly, if they're intensely funny, they're also a hard case. If someone were intensely rebellious and always getting into trouble, you might also describe them as a hard case. If someone has almost any trait to such a degree of intensity that it's noticeable and characterising, then they're a hard case.

Yeah it should be something like "wiggly case" or "giggle case" to describe a humorous person ;)
