John Hartson is guilty of this. eg He says “foootcha” instead of pronouncing “future” properly 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G-MAN Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 People who believe in magic. E.g. at the moment a video doing the rounds of a guy pouring a glass of water but then sticks a knife through it (turns out to be a cake)Cue, loads of “wow”, “have you seen this” quotes. then are shocked when someone tells them where the video is edited. My Dad actually thought Dynamo walked on water a few years back... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no fucking way you can make someone "sleep" before being able to make them do what you want, or you'd have c***s shagging like mad way above their station all over the place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not nationality, but they might have a point with the casting of Red in Shawshank Redemption, or Lincoln Rhyme in the Bone Collector... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why should I be happy it doesn't contain this, does it usually contain it, what other food stuff is it in and what has it been doing to me all this time? I can't think of even one example but the last place I saw it on was milk. I once picked up what I thought was a chicken and mayo sandwich in a rush one morning only to find that it was actually labelled as a mayo FREE dressing. I was incandescent with rage. Why would you label it as being a mayo free dressing? There are literally thousands of ingredients you haven't used, why is it only pertinent to inform me of the mayo's exclusion? Never been back to M&S for a sandwich. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to catch one yesterday for a lady and it was a piece of piss. My arms are pretty much simian though so maybe it was easier for me than for Stallone.

I was staying at my parents this time of year a few years back and me and the Mrs wanted to settle down to watch a film but our parents chickens were still wandering around the garden at around 8 pm so we decided to go out and get them back into their pen and it certainly was anything but easy. Little did we know that had we just left them alone they would have gone to their beds when the sun went down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
