What makes you cringe...

WOMEN AND BIG CARS

When Mrs J's Type 126 finally croaked (after 8 years), I asked her if she wanted another "biggun" or a more compact car ???

I thought I heard some reference to sex and travel.

She said ... I'll have one like yours.
So we got a second E300TD

 

[Noodle-Pulp]

and for the MCP response, i also said "look i don't ask to mess about in YOUR kitchen... don't ask to drive MY car" although in my defence she's a chef... she's REALLY protective about that kitchen

Are you insured to use that oven?

My neighbour does this all of the time, then he follows it up with "yeah!"

Cringe:

............you know what I mean....

Especially when it's pronounced 'nart-a-meen'


People who use lots of words yet say nothing:

At the end of the day, it's like this fing like, that's got wossname 'n' stuff, like, you know, dem fings and everyfin', nart-a-meen?

People.

A poor vocabulary range

Fowler would be turning in his grave at that conclusion. Fanciful variation and all that...

I found myself cringing yesterday as a colleague was commenting on the area that another colleague is moving into. His assessment went something like:

"Man, that area is really, really nice; the houses down there go for at least 2.3 mil, and some of them are up for like 3.95 mil. I was walking along there the other day and this guy had a Lamborghini, a Porsche and an Aston just parked outside his house. You know someone's doing OK when they've got those kind of wheels just lying around...";
​

and so it went on, but I couldn't bear to listen any more so I reached for my iPod and zoned out. Utterly cringeworthy.

Deserved a bucket of cold custard over his head.

What makes me cringe? Looking at a very sad, neglected 250 turbo 202. One I have in the workshop I will not allow back on the road as its lethal. Like wishbone bolts finger tight, literally. Springs hanging out, brake calipers seized and discs so rusty its cringe worthy. I felt like crying. Owner does not want it rectifying. Sad, so sad.

"Yo, Blair"

 

[bh13coupe]

people who say "my bad" when they have made an error

[MOCAŠ]

People who say: "What's that all about?" (and variations thereof).

Threads that think they're the Pet Hates thread.

So that would be every Vicar in the country on Rememberance Sunday then

'...at the end of the day and in the morning, we will remember you'

 

[Scott_F]

So that would be every Vicar in the country on Rememberance Sunday then

'...at the end of the day and in the morning, we will remember you'

Any vicar that came out with that nonsense would need a kick up the backside.

It's actually:

"At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them"
