Stupid little things that bug you

[Citizen of Legoland]

As soon as a woman comes on the TV doing that it annoys me so much I have to turn the volume off.
And it seems to be getting more common.

Great video that, very informative.

The Aussies writing/saying the score in cricket wrongly. It's not wickets for runs, it's runs for wickets. I think they're the only major cricketing nation who use that format. I'm pretty sure that even their neighbours, the Black Caps, use the proper method of scoring.

What about Citeh?

So, my wife told me she wanted a new coat for Christmas. She even made it easy for me and sent me a link to buy it. I said, "No problem, I’ll sort it in the morning."

Fast forward to today, it's sold out everywhere. When I told her, she went absolutely crazy, asking why I didn’t just buy it last night when I got home from the match. Fair point, I guess, but honestly, I didn’t think it would sell out that fast!

Tell her that it would have made her look fat anyway. She'll settle right down.

At least it sounds Manc and not Yank

Heard the exact same line outside a jewellers in key West, a cap doffing moment if ever there was.

There's lots of women around here who wear those 'dryrobe' coats. They all wear them about 20 sizes to big. Why pay around d 160quid for a coat that's way to big for you ?

They're desperate to look Middle Class that's why. There's plenty of them about in Bramhall and Cheadle Hulme.

I always thought they wore those coats to show how much weight they had lost

It's a legacy from when they were children.
