  1. A long time ago, I sometimes tried to pose as a different nationality online but I could never get away with it. My vocabulary is too littered with absolute Britspeak. People have commented on it here too. I would use phrases I didn't realise were British, like "I reckon". It's ok. If I can't describe things as being "a load of old cobblers" then there's no point speaking at all.
  2. You know I normally never miss a chance (I recently wished that picture of a jagged Lego brick to be John Nobhead's next poo), but I am not feeding this one. It's my belief that this thread is nothing to do with having an Intellectual Discussion and everything to do with trying to upset people. Given the fact that we have several minority posters including Jewish people, this is distasteful to say the least, and informs my opinion of the OP still further. I expect it'll remain up because it is technically within the letter of the forum law (though arguably not within its spirit), but I do not believe it's been started in any sort of good faith.
  3. Fashions, hobbies, interests, no. Behaviours, yes.
  4. Pretty sure you can get that here. I'll look out for it. If I find it, I'll have a bag in your honour.
  5. This is eerily reminiscent of the scene that greeted us the morning after a night at a hen weekend I went to a few years ago. Think the wig had deely boppers on it, though. It was a classy affair. I think we all intend to recreate that night once this effing virus has effed off. Peeve: I can't remember which of us was the clown under the bed. Definitely not me, though, I was dressed as a hula dancer.
  6. Happy new year. I might stay up to midnight tonight. In the spirit of going to someone's funeral just to make sure they really are dead.
  7. What a complete loony. I think the Americans have a saying..."The trash just took itself out." Merry Christmas/Boxing Day to all. I've had far too much Marsala.
  8. I was once literally the only person to turn up to a seminar at uni the next day because we had had such a mad night before. I was hung over as heck but it didn't actually occur to me not to go! My tutor guessed what had happened (I looked rough) and bought me something greasy afterwards.
  9. Hmmph. Well. It's been 17 years since they did it (although somewhat more recently since I suffered it) so maybe in 2021, I will TRY to forgive F. Gary Gray and Mark Wahlberg for what they did to The Italian Job. But I'm not promising anything. I'm still furious. It's not a peeve, it's absolute rage. At least now I've decided what I'm going to watch tonight, don't fancy a Christmas film. This is the Self Preservation Society...
  10. It's left unknown, but poor Barry did seem to be pretty clear. An updated version from 2009 suggested not: "Stop stewing, boo-hooing, I've had a good look down there and there's nothing doing!" "I'm boring, imploring, let me read this catalogue on vinyl flooring..."...that just sums up my feelings about all my experiences of attempted Gorean sexual encounters. It's a famous song here, partly because it is absolutely sublime, but also because it never uses any dirty words or has any explicit content. This not only makes it ten times funnier, but also means it's always been fine to broadcast it before the watershed. They even did a performance of it once at my church when I was a kid. I didn't get it, but I remember loving the clever lyrics. We love you, Victoria. It's never been the same without you. Peeve: I know nobody watched it because it's a random internet video and it's a few minutes long but oh my God it's funny. Surely one of the most British songs ever!
  11. I'm peeved because I wanted to use @Scylla Rhiadra's lovely "give a song" thread to dedicate this to all Goreans, but she said it was a place to be nice and not all sarcastic, so I'll dedicate it to them here. Victoria, you were a national treasure. We miss you.
  12. Have you seen the cover of the latest issue of Men's Health? Merry Christmas.
  13. I once saw someone in the most beautiful outfit and asked her where she got it. She gave me a landmark and, a few minutes later, the same outfit. It wasn't cheap by the standards of the day and I had never met her before. So generous. I've had several men get things off high shelves for me lately at the supermarket and even insist that I go in front of them in the queue. I think I'll carry on wearing the mask even when this is all over. I do well when people can't see my face.
  14. The thread finally got zapped because someone posted a pic of Donald Trump?
  15. I know it's hypocritical because I posted on it, but I'm so grateful that thread has finally gone.
  16. Can do, you're pushing after all. It's the same action. It's pretty common. I didn't, as it happened, but by the time I was well in there, I wouldn't have cared if I had. I'd have given birth in the fruit aisle at Tesco if it had made it end quicker.
  17. Oh, another baby one. Feeding child, postman knocks, answered door and forgot to put boob away first. As it happens, once you've experienced labour (or at least a labour like mine), you're supremely unbothered by stuff like that.
