I’m the opposite. I’ve turned a few into lesbians. 

There's at least 2 women I've shagged in the past who've gone into lesbian relationships soon after. 

 

One is back on the pork now but the other is happily married to a woman. 

 

I'd like to tell you that they just realised that they'd peaked with men, their glass ceiling had been hit with me so there was nowhere left to go. I'd like to tell you that.

All meetings involve some small talk and "banter" that less then 10% present enjoy or want. Or some dick will bring up personal issues that need to be addressed elsewhere and not shut the fucking fuck up about it.

 

Absolutely love a meeting, me.

I went on a "Consulting Skills" course a while ago and part of it was running meetings. When I was appraised afterwards I was marked down for not asking how the other attendees families were and what was on telly last night. I said I didnt care and we where there to get a job done. This was the wrong answer.

How does a business like this even exist with these priorities? Mind boggling.

Funnily enough, this describes my Friday afternoon to a tee. I've just started a new job and been introduced to the wonders of the "Friday Social". Everything is home-based so you have about 50-odd people all connected to Zoom for this 30-minute session. A couple of minutes where a manager provides an update on how certain things will be run from now on, but the rest of it is just one big northern bloke banging on about being northern and trading bantz with a couple of people he obviously knows well, and a "bubbly" middle-aged woman encapsulating the worst of the modern workplace woman.

Sounds fun.

When you say "your gate", you mean an actual gate, right?

Aye, my front garden has a gate & I go fucking spare when people leave without shutting it behind them.

 

Who does shit like that.

People from Yorkshire telling you that they're from Yorkshire. 

 

Fuck off.

I went to see REM in Huddersfield in 1995. The crowd started chanting "Yorkshire, Yorkshire, Yorkshire" for no reason. Michael Stipe asked "Are you saying Georgia?"

 

People from Yorkshire are backwards fucks

People from Yorkshire are 'fuckers' is the correct British terminology.

I quite like those “Yorkshire” chants at events across the county. It’s a friendly and happy thing in my experience of it, and more ritualistic than anything, but even if not - what’s wrong with a bit of pride in where you’re from? I’d love it for that level of unity across Merseyside and would defo join in with that chant. You gang of miseries

Tiny wash hand basins in certain establishments. 

 

Ok, fair enough, I see you're a bit tight for space, but some sinks are so fucking small you can barely wash the tops of your fingers, you'd need to have the hands of a newborn baby to fit under the taps in these poxy things.

Online shopping substitutions at Asda.

 

My Mum ordered her shopping online with Asda. One of the items she ordered was a bag of frozen mixed peppers. They had none so substituted them for what. Well, the logical thing would be fresh or nothing, but no.

Frozen mixed cauliflower and broccoli florets.

Just how the fuck are they an appropriate substitution for mixed peppers?.

Dickheads.

 

We had one go at click and collect shopping. We buy the 20 pack of free range eggs they do, but they said they didn’t have any, so that was that. No attempt at a substitution cause none of the other boxes they do have can add up to 20, so that’s that. Fucking bellends.

It used to happen at Cup Finals back in the 1980s but not any more since one half of the City is allergic to silver.

When you’re driving on a road with space for only one car to get through, someone is coming the other way, you pull in to let them go and ages after you’ve done so they then pull in and sit there motioning for you to go first instead. It irrationally annoys the fuck out of me for some reason. I know they’re only being polite, I know it’s daft, but the waste of time/effort to not just go when you’ve given them room always makes me think they’re a tit.

Yeah, I’ve heard those stories. Vehemently denied by some of our blue brothers now weirdly though.

 

The Yorkshire lot do it at anything that’s on in Yorkshire. I think it’s great
