Plus everyone in the vicinity hates your guts so you can't even breathe out. Not that you'd want to because of the sensation that you've been huffing petrol. The witchety grub I had in Australia was more appetizing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything I ate for a good while afterwards, regardless of how strong a flavour each thing was, just tasted of durian. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dee Man Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Anthony Bourdain's description of durian: Your breath will smell as if you’d been French-kissing your dead grandmother. Not sure why he felt the need to make his analogy weirdly incestuous but here we are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm drawn to the idea of doing things for no other reason than I haven't done them before. A sort of ongoing bucket list. When it comes to food, I've had a go at most of the well-known yeeeuch type foods but fermented fish is still on my 'to do' list. I don't fancy eating it from a jar and as I'm not anticipating being in Scandinavia any time soon, I'm not sure how long it will be before I can tick that one off. 4 minutes ago, Raidernation said: You been following me??? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 I've discovered that I quite enjoy doing those ReCaptcha picture "puzzles". You know; click on all the traffic lights to prove you're not a robot (and help their robots become smarter). It's like helping the wean do their homework. Until they get to the high school and you realise you're thicker than you were thirty years ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Parents who don't make their kids change out of their school uniforms when they get home from school. Was in Asda about 8 tonight and there was a family in doing their shopping, kids still decked out in their school shoes, trousers and jumpers. Was the same when I was in school. You'd all go home from school then head down the park (in the summer) for a massive game of football before tea, and there would be a couple of boys turn up still wearing their school gear. I always thought it was the mark of a mink. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derry Alli Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 I was made to take the school clothes off as soon as I got home but that was more down to the fact I tore through the knees and elbows of clothing at an exceptional rate. I'd just get bunged back out in half tore trackies to go dive about the streets again. Wouldn't be allowed near school with holes in jumpers or trousers. An element of keeping up with the Jones', IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A medical isn't to determine that you're fit to play immediately. St Mirren will have made the decision they're happy to take the risk. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate them When you have to identify traffic lights is it just the lightbox or does the whole apparatus including the pole count? And they call zebra crossings "crosswalks" Absolute b*****ds 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
