When the yoof literally speak a different language to you.
a recent family holiday coincided with young Jayden Jaxon Whippa-Shnappa (they’re all double-barrelled these days and I suspect not all from aristocratic stock) going on a ‘lads trip’ to the same resort.
My good friend @Algarveaddick was kind enough to warn me a few days beforehand it had been proving particularly windy in the evenings that week, a helpful consideration for appropriate clothing preparations.
Thought I’d be a good egg and inform young Jayden Jaxon that my friend who lives out there says “it’s right blowing up in the evenings at the moment”.
He just grinned and said “sick, I’ve heard it’s been getting proper lively”.
I didn’t have the heart to inform I meant weather not nightlife, that he might want to consider packing a jersey, so I just fist pumped him and returned to my desk.14 -
When you remember a jersey as an item of clothing1

You remember the glory days of when only 1 or 2 parts of your body gave you gyp, instead of the regular 6 or 7 these days0

When you go on a stag do, get absolutely smashed to the point where you can't remember anything (apart from being sick in a bin), then you check your location history on Google maps the next day and find out that you were home in bed by 10.30pm.10

You lean against something to put your socks on, pants take 2/3 stabs at each hole and trousers? You just fall over.12

You play indoor football with a two year old and get reminded by what appears to be a young chit of a girl (actually the child's mother) that you are the oldest person present by some distance yet are setting the worst example to the children.0
