Bollocks I say Nigel, what is the odometer reading, right now please? It's now definitely a word that pisses me off 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 I walk past a council owned car park on the way from work to New Street and there is a car in there that has obviously been abandoned or stolen and dumped It has about 20 yellow parking enforcement notices stuck to its windscreen. I'm just trying to get into the mindset of the enforcement officer who will see that tomorrow and decide its worthwhile to issue another one. Idiots.

Even reviews are fine, to a point. But it's when it takes that (what seems to me) pretentious angle where it's like the person reviewing the show wants to show off their vocabulary and BTEC in Film Studies to anyone who will listen I nearly lost my shit* when, in an episode of Jonathan Creek they showed a quick glimpse of Cobstone windmill in Bucks and tried to pass it off as Creek's home, which everyone knows is Shipley windmill in Sussex! Do they think we are fools?! * I didn't really 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in my local outdoor a couple of weeks back and ahead of me in the queue was a couple of teenage lads, clearly on the way to a party, who literally looked like had walked off the set. Down to the caps and weirdly cut trousers and whatnot. Looked absurd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't have a problem with it if it's for an event / special occasion etc. If you're popping down Lidl in full gear though, it's time to have a word with yourself. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choffer Posted July 19, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted July 19, 2019 I couldn’t work out if I should put this in the US bolitics thread or the corporate evil one. I know it doesn’t really fit here either as I don’t see how “it shouldn’t”.

A'Villan Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 When you have no doubts about letting a fart rip safely and it's a follow through. The outrage I felt when I figured out Adam Sandler was not going to show up declaring it's cool to sh*t your pants and save me was real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
