You learnt that in Norway, :dunno: You never did listen to anything I said :whistle:

i was laughed at for saying 'shall' instead of 'will', as in 'i shall be there'? is it just me?

my favourite word is 'animadversions', which i actually manage to fit in to conversations, ha, with norwegians, what a cock i am!

here's a good word - widdershins - Phill Babb's testicles to whoever can come up with a definition first, not a word you can use in everyday conversation.

It's the opposite of Turnwise in Terry Prachett's discworld - and the reason for this is that it's more (though probably, thanks to Prachett, less) common usage is "in the opposite direction to normal".

I claim Phil Babb's testicles!!!

me duck.

Does anyone remember thier Grandads using this one all the time, or was it just mine? :unsure:

My poor dad came to Leicester from Birmingham in the early 1980's. He walked into what was to become his local, and approached the bar. The barman said "What can I do for you me duck?" He was convinced he had walked into a gay bar.

Your Mum / So's your Mum etc.

Me and a mate of mine have revived this one. Bear in mind that we are both in our mid twenties. People look at us a bit funny when we occasinally reply to a question or statement of theirs in this manner.

Don't let the bed bugs bite

Old people saying "Thankyou" >_<:angry:

They really do annoy me at times. The women in particular. My dislike for them is at its height when queuing in a shop. They spend what seems like hours rifling through their purses for change, not wanting to "break into a note". Piss off, you will still have the same amount of money left. You would think they would go about things a bit quicker. They are going to die soon. They should want to fit as much in as possible. The thing that really gets to me is how obsessive they are about being shown respect. Not just basic human respect. But special respect for being old. You really expect me to respect you more because you were born a few decades before me? Thats not an achievement, you didn't earn that. Your parents just felt horny one night a long time ago. I don't respect that. Just because you are old doesn't mean you won't be an arsehole. Earn your respect. Big sigh.....

This might sound strange but people dont say good morning anymore.

I remember years ago when it was the done thing to say that to someone. Now when you say it they look at you as though you have farted at them!

Shows how the times have changed i think...in a bad way!

Meh, i know what i mean! lol

I still say good morning and exchange smiles with people on my walk to work, people seem to actually like it as like you say, it's not the done thing.

It does tend to be the older people who respond better though - young people look at you like you're about to rape them.

I do this on my postie round and I find the opposite - old people sort of shy away and take up a "fight or flight" kind of stance :rolleyes:

However, that's now I am Wigston, when I was based in Syston and used to do Rearsby and Queiniborough, the older people were very friendly and would chat for ages.
