Hitesh Posted 24 March 2009 Posted 24 March 2009 Been having an argument with my house mate over the past few weeks about what you refer to as "dinner". I call it dinner but he calls it tea!! Its mad I tell you, tea is what you drink! Not the time you eat. Anyway, just wondering what everyone on here calls it. Please feel free to add your own if they are not listed above! And whilst you're here, what everyone is having for <see list above in poll>. I will be tucking into a Chinese stir fry with Chicken and not sure what else as a side just yet - will raid the cupboards later on!
Finnegan Posted 24 March 2009 Posted 24 March 2009 Dinner. I occasionally say tea but given the vast quantities of tea I drink this would soon get confusing.
James. Posted 24 March 2009 Posted 24 March 2009 I used to say Breakfast, Dinner, Tea. Then I came to the south and everyone got very confused. Now I say Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner.
Webbo Posted 24 March 2009 Posted 24 March 2009 I used to say Breakfast, Dinner, Tea.Then I came to the south and everyone got very confused. Now I say Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner. You were right, the south is wrong.
Hitesh Posted 24 March 2009 Author Posted 24 March 2009 I used to say Breakfast, Dinner, Tea.Then I came to the south and everyone got very confused. Now I say Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner. Good man! That's something which annoyed me - dinner is no where near lunch!!!
Asha Posted 24 March 2009 Posted 24 March 2009 Spread? 'What's for spread?' 'I gotta go eat my spread...' What kind of gimp would call it spread Dinner for me, always has been.
Monk Posted 24 March 2009 Posted 24 March 2009 I use the word din dins when I am making the dog's dinner. 'What's for din dins?'
Finnegan Posted 24 March 2009 Posted 24 March 2009 What kind of gook would call it spread Hmm... Little less of that please.
Asha Posted 24 March 2009 Posted 24 March 2009 Hmm... Little less of that please. Apologies. Didn't really know what it meant till I just looked it up.
Alexikokopops Posted 24 March 2009 Posted 24 March 2009 Apologies. Didn't really know what it meant till I just looked it up. Whoops! Try goon in the future
Libertine Posted 24 March 2009 Posted 24 March 2009 Din Dins. For that small hint of comedy in my day to refrain from quadruple murder suicide.
Lillehamring Posted 24 March 2009 Posted 24 March 2009 breakfast brunch lunch (as in lunchtime) tea (as in afternoon tea) dinner (as in dinnertime) supper midnight feast ...
lookwhaticando Posted 24 March 2009 Posted 24 March 2009 Owt for tea? Quite natural, I'd say. Shame I clicked the wrong fucking option.
Bert Posted 24 March 2009 Posted 24 March 2009 Breakfast. Lunch. Dinner. Also to add weight to the lunch argument, the news say "the lunchtime news."
