sadoldgit Posted July 2 Share Posted July 2 5 hours ago, whelk said: Political commentators constantly referring to ‘super majority’. Meaningless bollocks in our constitution although I know they all love a new term I don’t recall it being an issue before, so why now? Just a panic knee jerk response by the Tory election machine now picked up by the political commentators? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stripey McStripe Shirt Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 The twattish new trend of painting a red cross on mini roundabouts when England do moderately ok at football. It's made where I live look a right shit hole (more than it usually does). No doubt it won't get repainted white anytime soon so just looks like crap EDL graffiti indefinitely (I should clarify, I have nothing against the St George's cross, but it just looks shit when painted by a bell end with a roller).

revolution saint Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 People (mostly sports commentators) adding "years of age". As in Lamine Yamal, just 17 years of age. He's 17. Just say he's 17.

rallyboy Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 It's the same as those smug fuckers who go, "oh, I'm not seventy years old, I'm seventy years young." No you're fucking not, it's a simple concept, don't try to be clever. Same goes for Sam Smith with 'their' insane claim to be a "fisherthem."

I was listening to "not 19 forever" by the courteeners yesterday and it'd sound shit if they made the lyric "you're not 19 years of age forever".
