Stupid little things that bug you

[idahoblues]

Stupid phrases along the lines of:
There's no I in team. - No you gerbil, but there's a "me" if you look hard enough.
Never assume as it makes an ass of u and me. - No it fucking doesn't. It might if you pixilate every character and reformat them but while assume can make ass, u and me, it can't make an ass of u and me. And in all cases the u would be text speak and therefore not to be taken seriously.
We don't have problems we have opportunities. - Oh fucking really? The most famous problem of all time is "Okay, Houston, we've had a problem here" as spoken by astronaut Jack Swigert. No mention of fucking opportunities. So do you take the word of Swigert, a NASA astronaut, test pilot, mechanical engineer, aerospace engineer and US Air Force pilot or that of some management speak dickhead?

I’ll put that in the thought fridge and chew on it later

Not sure this is a wind up but if so, I'm hooked...the I in team refers to an individual, no I, no individual, all team players, therefore a team effort, ' we '. See Ronny the icon for proof..

Watching adverts I havent got a clue what they are on about , like ' we are 8' . It's bad enough camelgob does the talk over ! As for what the product is , no clue

People who say ' No clue '...it's no idea, a clue is a hint that someone gives you, an idea is what you have, or haven't. Plus you're English, Yanks have no idea.

There's no orange in Jaffa Cakes. I used to work my student summers at McVitie's and the filling is apricot. At one time their adverts used to refer to the "scrumptious orangey bit in the middle" because it wasn't really orange.

Jaffa Cake row: Seven snack shockers that got people cross

'Jaffa-gate' is the latest treat row, after Jaffa Cake maker McVitie's has cut the number of the treats in each box from 10 to 12 - and people are not happy about it!

So does the Apricot still count as one of my 5 a day?

You read my post and weren't sure it was a wind up? It wasn't a wind up as they are stupid sayings, and I am well aware what a team player is.
