I haven't fallen for that one since the late 1950s!

A long time ago I worked for a recruitment company.
I went to visit a customer, a HGV distribution type outfit.
On that day I was in Mrs Choppers company car, a BMW 328i.
As soon as I pulled up the warehouse manager came out and said "They are paying you too much money"
"It's my wifes company car I replied.
"Well, they are still paying you too much money"
Absolute w@nker of a man.

“I’m not racist, but...” - usually followed by racist diatribe.
Or
“I’m not trying to be rude, but...” - normally followed up by degrees of rudeness.
Or
“I’m not trying to be funny, but...” - you’re right, you’re not!

I’m sure I’m not alone in knowing vegetarians who would describe themselves as pescatarian…….. which always made me wonder why they normally used the V word!

Could you be more pacific?
People triumphantly proclaiming, "Well, that proves you are then" to anybody who dares to point out that they're not racist. Sometimes people do tell the truth, although the false sense of entitlement to the higher moral ground if you can "prove" they are more racist than you is obviously very tempting to many, especially if you're among people that share the same view as you, that anybody who says they're not racist is by definition lying. The close comfort and warm fuzzy feeling of being in the 'OK' mob.

Has anyone mentioned the "Why can't some people not realise that if UncleTony doesn't shell out anither £20, £30 or £40M strker NOW we'll be doomed to relegation and it'll be like last season all over again" (when we quite comfortably avoided relegation quite handsomely - sorry, I must have missed the bit where we went down!)

"Oliver, we all love you very much. We'll always be here for you, no matter what. Happy second birthday."
When adults use their Facebook wall to talk saccharin-covered shite to their non-reading-age children, who also don't have access to Facebook.
Makes me do little bits of sick in my mouth.
Vile.
Oh, and 'guys'. **** off.

Every time I think about joining Facebook I see a comment like yours and remember why I’m not on it.
Also never been a fan of ‘guys’
When people mangle tenses to predict what they believe may have happened had circumstances had been different, in the mistaken belief that it makes them sound like they are a tv or radio master-pundit, rather than a knob.
"If that shot hadn't been deflected, the keeper is saving that."
"If he hadn't had a time penalty, Hamilton is winning that race."
