Stupid little things that bug you

“Counter-terrorism”... fucking counter-terrorism!

We used to say “anti-terrorism” but somewhere along the line some **** slipped “counter” in there instead to sound more American.

We don’t use “counter” as a preposition in this country. It sounds fucking stupid.

It’s anti-clockwise, anti-aircraft gun, antidote, anti-terrorism.

But now all you hear is “counter”. I give it five years and we’ll have “counter-clockwise” being used here!
 
“Season”... fucking season!

We used to say “series” but somewhere along the line some **** slipped “season” in there instead to sound more American.

I’ve got older DVDs that have “Series 1” “Series 2” “Series 3” on the front.

Now almost everywhere it’s “Season”.

To be fair, "trying to finish the current PL series" doesn't sound right!




"TAXI!!!“
 
I know I’ve already posted a laundry related issue but my wife leaving surf boards stuck to her knickers when she puts them in the dirty hamper is seriously grossing me out!
 
When “colourway” is used to describe the colour of trainers. There’s no need for the “way”; “colour” fine on its own!
