Hey everyone
Hope you're all keeping well over here - we haven't been posting much lately but we're still around!
Just wanted to share this with you... we had no idea but at some point recently our Goo website http://clik.to/gootastic has been added to the Official Goo Goo Dolls' Website!! 
We honestly can't believe it and are soooo chuffed. Definitely got us smiling today

Congrats!
You guys and your wacky British words. When I read the thread title, I though 'chuffed' was a negative term...

Aww thanks guys
As for "Chuffed" - we didn't think about it being a non-american term, guess it's just another example of the differences between the two countries. It's really fascinating actually!
Really pleased you use it too tkc1989 - would have felt a bit odd otherwise! lol
We use it over here when we're pleased with something i.e "well chuffed" although like someone pointed out to us, trains "chuff" too so it does get a bit confusing! Confusing - guess that sums up the English language lol Make no mistake though, we are MOST definitely happy and no, we're not "chuffing" or "puffing" like a train lmao

Just found the following definition at the online Cambridge Dictionary....
"chuffed
adjective [after verb] UK INFORMAL
pleased or happy:
He was really chuffed with his present."
Hope that helps

Wow, that's so cool you guys, congratulations! And third down, that's as noticeable as you could get really! I love the fact they've got "Gootastic" and "EuroGoo" on there, it makes me feel like they're trying to show that they do know us pesky European fans exist, yay! 
And I used "chuffed" as well, normally "chuffed to bits" for really, really pleased. Heh, if the Goos come back to tour the UK next year we'll all be VERY chuffed! Didn't realise it's not used in America, LOL!
Anyway, congrats again.
