What really peeves me off

I heard that as a kid.

Used to be a real challenge to remember it though we had a longer version.

"Supercallafragalisticexpeallidocious!"

Takes me back....

Cheers

Rosscoh,Ya can't use Gin in normouse.Politicaly correct is Gnormouse.Sorry, but who am i to correct you RosscoH.:)))
Bob.

If you really did do that, and it was in the retail establishment I work in, I would apologies profusely and explain how I would discipline the said employee.Then, when you had left I would explain to the employee he/she could use the word as they like and ignore any such tossers in the future.

People whinging about language, as if they didn't pick up and use the "latest" phrase when they were kids. Get a LIFE!

Cheers,

Mark

You have got to be kidding me. You would pool someone over using the word awesome.

Get over yourself. If that is the worst that is ever said to you I reckon you are doing pretty well. I hope you don't think for a minute that your actions have stopped the staff using the word.

There must be bigger topics than this to talk about surely.

David,

What I do to combat the "too easy" is I then hit them with a "no worries " and if they have a sense of humour they will come back with a "sweet mate " to which I will reply "not a problem " and so on .

If they say " have a nice day ", I come back with "and you enjoy the rest of your weekend " etc - I think it is important to show these people how stupid those moronic statements are .

Cheers

It is all part of Goverment mind controll

Drink reclycled sewage this is how it is done.

A subliminal message is a signal or message embedded in another object, designed to pass below the normal limits of perception. These messages are indiscernible to the conscious mind, but are alleged to be perceptible to the subconscious or deeper mind: for example, an image transmitted so briefly that it is only perceived subconsciously, but not otherwise noticed. Subliminal techniques have occasionally been used in advertising and propaganda; the purpose, effectiveness and frequency of such techniques is debated.

The trouble is we are geting hit with so many subliminal messages the weak and insecure don't know if the comeing or going in my opinion.

Nearly as bad as these WANKERS that call a 4x4 a "truck".It's only a Cruiser,Tojo,Pootrol,car,wagon,ute etc;not a "truck". Kenworth,Mack,Western Star,Freightliner,Volvo etc are "TRUCKS". Get real.

oh it's big alright!

I think I'd be a lot happier if the news readers said",,,,,,,,,the sewage pipe burst and left a ,,,,,,,,,king great puddle of smelly stuff all over the road". It forms a more descriptive picture.

Bilbo

sure is Muddy, its as big as ten bears

But............... how big are the bears lol

Jimbo, all I can say is that I hope you finally find absolution!

Michell.... spot on!!!!!

My pet hate is when people say "Me" in place of "My"
As in...............

I left ME hat on the floor.......

Geeze I hate that!

End of soap box bit.

yes, and then there is.... "them..." instead of "those" !@#$%&*

Michelle - I see you're a bit of a stickler for the correct use of spelling - agree with you. Pity more people don't use the spell check function you went to the trouble of adding (although it wouldn't pick up many of the examples you mention).
And what about the use of "youse", as in the post following this one? Horrible!
Awesome doesn't overly concern me. I get that "sweet" thing from my teenage son all the time.
Cheers from the Moose

Sorry Michelle,

Some times I have a lapse of concentration which for some unexplained reason coincides with the need to refill an empty drinking vessel.

What I meant to say was "you're a splendiferous shirla person".

I'm sure everyone on this site will agree with me.

I deserved to be castigated. It won't happen again.

Regards

Kim

Hey Kim
What's a "shirla"? I think you should fill that vessel and try again!
Cheers from the Moose
PS Is cheers acceptable or is that a Yankee thing as well?

Or "I seen that" instead of "I saw that" or the others that get up my nose are the ones who use big words but don't know what they mean but, hey, they look good. Eg "It is a quantum leap for mankind" when the word quantum actually means small.
TV interviewers that, for whatever reason, have to nod constantly, next time someone is interviewing someone I'll betcha the interviewer is nodding...
SCREW the nodders....

Moose,

Damned if I know mate, don't get out much. It may refer to the dominant demographic who walk funny.

The word "cheers" is unacceptable. It comes from some little Island in the Northern hemisphere that's populated by people who have no understanding of a decent language.

Gotta go now, the drinking vessel in empty!

Regards

Kim

I've got a toothache now
