Stupid little things that bug you

[Fiftyyearsandcounting]

Stupid,pointless rules annoy me..
You hear an advert on the radio then at the end, the T&C's or a disclaimer delivered at hyper-speed. Not a chance of being able to understand what is being said.
BUT, as long as you say it then that's OK, the fact that you can't hear it is irrelevant.
Worthy of The Mad Hatter (Actually, I think a European Union’s Consumer Credit Directive).

That twat right there....
stupid (tick),
looks like he's pretty short - so little (tick),
and he annoys the FCUK out of me.

Ok, I'll admit, Bo Selecta was pretty funny, but since then EVERYTHING he's done annoys me more than I thought anything ever could.
Earns a living by being an annoying little prick and passes it off as a "persona" or an "alter ego".
Nah mate, you're just an annoying little prick!

My family are all Newton Heath born and Failsworth bred. My old man says buck, but his sisters say say boo-k, and all my cousins say buck, as I do. Cant be wholly a generational thing and cant be solely related to districts either. Same for coo-king, they will do it while my old man is cucking. Very odd, I need to know the reason for the quirks in accent!

I love all the brilliant variations of the same language we have. For years it was our working class accents, from wherever we lived, were seen as almost a character flaw. A lack of intelligence. Well they can fuck right off. Our accents, colloquialisms, are every bit a valuable as any marble sucking **** could produce.

This is how we speak. Accept it or fuck off.

We don't say fook in Glasgow. We say Fuck. So, fuck off yersel. :)

I thought it was more a cross between fock and fuck. The Scots make swearing sound better many.

We do. There are some parts of the country that gave variations of pronunciation, but, Glasgow says fuck. Quite a lot. :)

As Frankie Boyle said, when you hear the F word it's just to let you know that a noun is on the way.

That's it in a fucking nutshell

Business jargon. Fucking hell.

I was told once that we're getting "great cadence". Alright fair enough - I haven't heard this term so i'll check it out. It makes absolutely no fucking sense. You're either telling me I have a nice voice or a nice rhythm or a nice frequency.

Train guy jargon.

Network not fretwork
Win win count me in city
Let’s place that in the thought fridge and snack on it later
I’ll ping you in the loop
Yeah Llondon yeah yeah
Geoff Linton!

Bob Mortimer rips these business types to shreds!

I like a strong Glaswegian accent MP, I find it endearing. Was a time when I could hardly understand what you cunts said though up there. I'd be in a bar in Glasgae and would have to ask them to speak the queen's English slower as I'm a bit deaf and sometimes have to lip-read. Fook me Jimmy. If they were a left footer I'd see outrage in a blood red contorted face followed by a weird Scottish Max Headroom rambling on as fast as a washer on full spin cycle mate.

You ****; )

I hate the less intelligence end of Mancunian stuff:
Heees (his)
We won dem (we beat them)
I seen him (I saw him/“a sore’im” sounds more Manc than what they say)
I fink he frew it frough de fick fingy (I think he threw it through the thick thingy)

I don’t think this is colloquialism, I genuinely think they do sound thick (fink de do sound fick)!

I’m not bothered about how strong someone’s accent is, but use the correct words. You can sound the most Mancunian (or Glaswegian for that matter) person that’s ever lived but still talk properly.

How is posh properly? Asking for a friend. Who decides what is correct? I always speak "properly" to be understood with people with different accents etc. But not when I am speaking to fellow Weegies.. if you are understood that's what communication is. But speaking in your local.dialect is absolutely fine.
