As I said, there's no reason for anyone on here to be a. clued up on acceptable terms for all minorities, and b. aware that another poster has a family member with this condition. ..although there do seem to be some who believe they absolutely qualify under (a). (Said condition is Hypochondroplasia, which is probably why "little person" is used) The tout's words, not mine. I'm guessing he hadn't been on a Diversity course or he wouldn't have said it like that. And I didn't kick the suitcase about. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 Think I'd rather be called a midget than a little person as an adult, and dwarves make me think of hobbits, but I'm ignorant about this stuff 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 When I was in Prague for a stag do a couple of years ago we just got loads of offers of weed or beak. Me and another guy were up for it but the stag, sensibly, said they're all likely undercover rozzers trying to catch tourists. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

microdave Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 I wouldn't go to Dubai because they don't show the Flintstones. However, Abu Dhabi do. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 I have gone to Dubai in my then capacity as on-expenses oil w****r. As much as I had a great time, I did come away thinking I would never be spending my own money and choosing to go there. A horrible place, where, albeit you can have fun given the right circumstances, I just dont see the appeal. Pure, distilled essence of LOOK AT ME!!!!!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t take it well when I suggested she should just clear the other dishes away first as apparently that was ‘giving her tasks’. Despite the fact I’m working just now and she’s self-isolating with f**k all to do. That kind of laziness just annoys f**k out of me. Also having the washing machine on constantly when I’m trying to work. My OH is also a bad one for dishes. He doesn't pile newly washed on top of dry tbf but if there's a particularly big pile the sensible thing to do would be to dry some of them instead of creating this sort of monstrosity. I'm terrified to walk past our drying rack half the time in case I sneeze or cough suddenly. Edited July 19, 2021 by Rizzo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps the most frightening aspect of this is why there are fizzy juice cans in and amongst the washing? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 Cleaned for recycling? Very commendable behaviour. Does it actually make any difference at any point in the process? Aye that's what we do then put them in a box before taking a pile to the bins. I'm not sure the reason behind them asking you to rinse products before putting them in the bins but for all the time it takes I really don't mind doing it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the Chinese have stopped taking our recycling because it was all so manky they had to put it in landfill or burn it. Other countries have followed suit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of our tins, cans and plastic tubs get a good rinse and scrub if needed before going in the blue bin. I do agree the can is taking up space and should have been rinsed and put into the bin we have in the kitchen for recycling mind you.
