    Interviewees on the wireless commencing their answers to questions 'So.'

    It seems to have crept in like a virus over the last few months or SO.

    Its the 'sheep' mentality, like the morons who say 'Simples'.

    The one that winds me up is the answer to any question asked by the interviewer that starts "Yeah...." closely followed by a change of mind as in,

    Interviewer - "So Tom (or Dick or whoever), that looked like a real battle out there today".

    Interviewee - " Yeah, No, it's always tough to come here and get a result",

    Make your mind up FFS. Mo Farah especially is guilty of this.

    I'm guilty of doing this a lot myself... Very much a habit rather than done deliberately

    Mo Farah has done this for every question in every interview ever, it's not just the last few months for him. I can't believe no one's ever told him

    There was a good Daily Mash article with the headline something like "Mild cheese, officially an abomination, say scientists". :smiley:

    There was a good Daily Mash article with the headline something like "Mild cheese, officially an abomination, say scientists". :smiley:
    CHEESE which is weaker than ‘medium’ is an abomination, experts have confirmed.
    Researchers at the Institute for Studies criticised the dairy industry for bestowing the ‘cheese’ label on products that had the flavour of insulating foam.
    Professor Henry Brubaker said: “Mild cheese is vile. We sampled things that were really just slices of milk, and skimmed milk at that, which is basically white water.
    ”As a rule of thumb, if you eat it with wine, and both taste better as a consequence, it’s probably cheese. If you eat it with corned beef in a sandwich, you’re in no position to say what is and what is not food.”
    Mild cheese fan Roy Hobbs said: “I tried some so-called mature cheese once. It smelled of garden mulch and tasted like soft, spreadable goat.
    “Dairylea Lunchables are superior to your workshy, fancy French and Italian cheeses, and they go beautifully with a vintage Ribena.”

    Adverts banging on about 'Black Friday deals' that last for 2 weeks.
    The point of the fuckwit idea is that its 1 day.
    Next year they'll be calling it Black Friday month.

    When you're planning to do a job (either at home or at work) that will earn you some brownie points for being proactive and thoughtful, just before you start the boss (either your employer or the real boss) asks you do to do that very same thing. Suddenly your good intent is thrown out of the window and any action you take is relegated from being far sighted and independent to merely following orders.

    If anything they are left thinking that they shouldn't have to tell you to do it, you should be doing it anyway...

    Agreed. We need to get the society of black lawyers involved to sort this out.

    When you have waited in the queue for the microwave at work and have your delicious lunch ready to go, start the walk back to your desk and someone starts chatting to you.
    You try not to make eye contact, grunt answers and keep taking half step shuffles away but they aren't taking the hint. The steaming pile of food in your hand doesn't phase them.
    You finally get away with your at best luke warm lunch. bastards.
