    ”Absolutely” is the new “You Know.”
  • Super.

    People being "super proud", or "super excited".

    Seems to have become the emphasis of choice, particularly for those who like to start a sentence with  "so".


    I first noticed it a few years ago when every professional road cyclist used it in interviews. 

    Although, thinking back, it was a big favourite of Jim Bowen  :D

    Absolutely.
  • Complete fucking time wasters when it comes to buying a house. 

    Having been burned once last year when trying to buy a house by someone who never had any real intention of selling their late parents house and they messed us around for months and months and cost us thousands in surveyors, solicitors and mortgage fees. 

    We managed to find another house we wanted back in October and it was pretty much perfect for us. We offered asking price and they accepted but last min someone offered more so they went with them. Annoying but it happens. Then yesterday we get a call from the estate agent saying their buyer has pulled out and are we still interested. Of course we are we haven't managed to find anywhere and are living with parents so this is great news. We say our offer is still on the table but will need a commitment from bith sides to make sure this happens before the end of the stamp duty window. Its completely possible if they wanted to do it.

    Then with a bit of digging we are told that they buyer pulled out because the selle hadn't found somewhere to buy and the buyer felt they were messing them around. They still haven't found somewhere to go. We also find out that they listed the house in 2016 and 2018 but never actually sold it. We love the house and really want it but are worried there are a lot of warning signs here that they are timewasters. 

    Don't wanna get months down the line and thousands of pounds in (again) to find out they aren't serious.
    So when I put this on here in Jan they took the house off the market 2 days later as "they didnt like being pushed" in reference to us wanting to complete within the stamp duty window.

    The house came back on the market this week for £45k more than it was on for in Jan and October. Pisstake

    go back, offer them 60k more than you did before, then pull out with a week to go.

    (obviously dont do this, but its a lovely karmic idea)
    or, on the other hand - do do this....
  • The Standard Life Aberdeen rebranding to abrdn (pronounced Aberdeen).

    Apparently this reflects the clarity of focus the leadership team is bringing to the business as they delivers sustainable growth.

    If this actually works we should re-brand to chrltn thltc.

    On the radio when you hear “I’m gonna play a little bit of...” why say just a little bit surely it will be the whole song? 
    When a DJ plays a song and there’s an instrumental part/solo and they start talking over it, does my nut in, it’s part of the bloody song, Hotel California is a case in point, great iconic song with a cracking bit of guitar playing at the end with a tight finish, and when you get to it....all you can hear is Steve Wright prattling on about his ‘big show’....unfunny hooked nosed cock!
    I'm sure I've stuck this on this thread before but DJ's that crash Fanfare For The Common Man over the intro' need a trumpet inserted where the sun don't shine. It's the most iconic part of the track you self obsessed numpties!

    Rather there than where there are other people.

    Usually to mask the smell of smoke. Which is one of my biggest annoyances - if you dont wanna smell disgusting like smoke how about you dont smoke?

    I'm here! 

    They should try washing/bathing/showering instead of using perfume as some kind of industrial strength disinfectant and deodorant. 
    And it’s not just women.

    I find that Lynx Africa is the best counterbalance to my lack of personal hygiene.
