Captain Willard

Teams is shit

Ha Ha. Mrs Willard recently had to interact with John Major's office and they told her he will only read posted letters. No emails, whats app or teams shit for Mr Major. If you want to ask him to do anything you have to write him a properly addressed and grammatically correct letter and post it.

Multi communication channels - in my office we have Teams, E mail, Whats App, texting, voicemail and good old fashioned phones. Very occasionally we meet in person. There is no consensus on how to talk to each other so I have to check 5 - 6 channels all day every day just to get a message. Drives me fucking nuts.

He’s seems to have lost his faux West Indian accent and now sounds like the som of a bishop whiich he always was. Very strange man. Steve Coogan spotted that DJs were fundamentally odd people and made a career mining this observational seam.

Yes identifiable and with a reputation to diminish. That’s why one can call posters Nazi cunts with impunity

I was thinking the same. Furthermore to libel someone you have to diminish their reputation which means they had to have a meaningful reputation to start with. I would imagine that’s a pretty high bar to clear for an anonymous poster on a football forum.

I think it’s a binary thing, either you like steak tartare a lot or you hate it. Oysters are the same. I don’t know about Quail’s eggs being a risk. If I stop posting you’ll know why.

Steak tartare with raw quail’s eggs. Very tasty.

Teenagers who eat all the biscuits but then leave the empty packets in the cupboard so you don't buy anymore then when you go to get a biscuit for your mid morning break they have all gone. 3 more years then they can fuck off to University and buy their own biscuits.

One Round

Talking about respite care for a family member today who looks after an elderly relative and it slowly dawned on me as we conversed that Mrs Willard thought respite care meant the carer not the patient went away for a few weeks. Like a holiday camp for middle aged women whilst they leave their elderly relative uncared for at home. She genuinely always thought that.

Interesting fact about that film, the 3 main characters are never in the same scene and what’s more 2 never appear in the same shot.

Inappropriate Capitalisation. Drives me crazy.

I don’t get this. Like a memory from a dream. Please explain.

I think the length of the phrase is important. My source says “When an adverbial phrase begins a sentence, it’s often followed by a comma, but it doesn’t have to be, especially if it’s short.” Personally I’m not a fan of a comma before a single adverbial but I’m open to being corrected .

This is the stuff. Comma placement is a controversial subject. I’m not sure about commas after one word.

Yes I spotted that too late.

Only.

Argh !! I also spelt only as owner. Inevitable really.

This is thread about grammar. Things that annoy you or more positively things that you love. For example, people who confuse I.e with e.g. That sort of thing. Personally I love a semi colon, makes my day if I get a chance to use one. Anyway I’ll probably be the owner poster but I’ll have an outlet.

Well played. Not sure about that comma but I’ll let it slide. Im definitely going to start a grammar pedantry thread.

Perfect day. I’m convinced it’s “drinks and Gruyère in the park” Everyone else thinks it’s “drink Sangria” but they’re wrong,

It’s

Cunt’s. The opinion belongs to the cunt.
