"Put British pork on your fork" On what planet does that rhyme? It's been bugging me for hours. 9 hours ago, Boghead ranter said: In the area of England where the ad agency are based. In related knitting-ripping annoyance, the way the McDonald's voiceover guy pronounces 'sauce' as 'source'. There is one near Scotch Corner too. A nationwide ad campaign that doesn't rhyme in most places is just shite. A bit like, as noted by Limmy, "Twenty's Plenty" not rhyming at all yet somehow catching on everywhere.

10menwent2mow Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 Anyone ordering drinks in a bar who tries to abbreviate/initial them. Special mentions go to. Pint of T Voddy coke/lemonade/other mixer JD and mixer SoCo and mixer SmIce But by far the worst... VBL. If you can't tell me what the f**k you want properly, you aren't getting it.

Derry Alli Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 Podcasts where someone on it has their phone on vibrate and keeps getting messages. I've checked my phone three times already listening to football daily. I don't even have a SIM in the phone I listen to podcasts on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
