Stupid little things that bug you

[Alan Harper's Tash]

In the 90s Discos did exactly this. I remember proper buzzing off them as a kid.

The little extra flavour sachets were called “flavour bombs” or something, and had hazard tape / radioactive branding.

They should bring those back.

Definitely, although as Magicpole eluded to, it might be tricky to reintroduce because of potential sodium poisoning.

Didn’t do us 90s kids any harm. We grew up on a diet of Discos, Sunny Delight and chronic depression caused by the death of City and our Tamagotchis.

Alluded.

I know, I was one, although always thought Sunny D tasted like shite.

Even more confusing is Canadians calling a beer a "brew".

That’s actually correct.

Brew is the verb of making beer, and the noun for a brewed drink. That’s why beer making factories are called breweries.

Tea or coffee can only be brews if you keep the leaves or beans in a container with water to develop the flavour. Sticking a tea bag in a cup and filling it with boiling water isn’t brewing it, therefore is not a brew.

It might be correct technically but here the term 'brew' is used to mean a cup of tea.

Just stood outside work having a smoke, opposite is a childrens park and footie pitch and it's heaving with kids and youngish parents, some grand parent.....when this 'thing' walked into view, a big, fat, ugly, short haired fucking excuse for a human being. I honestly didn't know whether it was male, female or whatever they want to call themselves nowadays. IT was wearing a black T shirt with white capital letters on it and it read ....' I'M NOT A GYNECOLOGIST BUT I KNOW A **** WHEN I SEE ONE '.....walking through a childrens park. What in gods name is that all about.

Waiting for a table in a pub and people sat on one clearly finished their drinks, not getting another one but not fucking off.

How Chinese people in general wear trainers that are too big for them and slip off at the heels when they walk! Bizarre.

Wasps again, sat in my summerhouse/potting shed this morning with a brew, shut the door as it was a bit windy but kept one very small window open & low & behold along comes mr wasp, now he has literally the rest of the fuc@ing world to fly around in but no he has to poke his nose through the window, have a look, come in and decide its a great time to bounce around the shed looking for a way out,
needless to say I have to get up & open the door but although he had no problem finding his way in through a very small window now he cant find his way out of a soddin door shaped hole, hate the little bastards.

Sanctimonious Scouse cnuts.
As we have an inexhaustible supply, it's a pity they're not a tradeable asset on world markets.

Even better. Maybe we should go on Dragon’s Den and punt it. Clean up for years, then get jailed for the manslaughter of several million due to sodium poisoning. But what a time up until then we would have? It’s a winner Tom.

I asked a scientist if sodium was poisonous and he said "Na".
