    I hadn't eaten a thing all day funnily enough but I lost my appetite rather quickly.

    The term 'to die for'.

    'The shaggy Bolivian goat curry was to die for.' Fair enough, next time you're going to indulge, let me know and I'll pop round and end your life.

    A dose of strychnine may well be 'to die for', try that in future.

    Have never actually heard the phrase "to die for" in real life, only as a pun in movies.

    E.g. If someone tells you "the shaggy Bolivian goat curry is... to die for" get out of there now, I guarantee it's poisoned.

    Unfortunately I see it written on virtually a daily basis, mostly on Facebook groups relating to food (I have Coeliac disease, so frequent a few groups relating to that). But it's also been used on this forum too, on a restaurant thread.

    Everything is hyperbole these days.

    "This new recipe is to die for."

    "You won't believe which Hollyoaks star we caught pissing down her neighbour's chimney!"

    "You never knew these 7 former Neighbours actors have horrible heroin addictions! Number four will shock you!"

    "Matt le Tissier absolutely wrecked and destroyed Paul Scholes in this devastating Twitter put-down!"

    People that criticise the club's curry nights. I went a few seasons back and the food was to die for.

    If you feel the need to munch on a shaggy Bolivian, be my guest. I actually meant a goat.

    Not so much annoy as makes my blood boil. Poachers break into a French zoo and murder a rhino, taking its horn: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/mar/07/rhino-shot-dead-by-poachers-at-french-zoo
  • 200 Arsenal fans protest cause they keep finishing 4th in the premier league & it gets maximum media coverage

    Clubs like Charlton & Blackpool are being ripped apart by crazy owners & they get nowhere near as much coverage. Absolute joke!

    People who get a parting shaved in when getting their hair cut, do you not know how to use a comb you wankers?

    Also, probably been mentioned plenty of times but doing your make up on the train, I'm shaving on the train tomorrow!

    A comb he says, oh how I dream of being able to use a comb. Mind you, I do have a parting. It's a fucking big one and goes right down the middle.

    The car in front of me this morning trundled along at 22mph (in a 50 zone) I noticed a sign on the back window, it read 'The Speed Limit Is Not a Target'. by the time I got to Tonbridge there was probably 30+ cars behind this selfish prick.
    Yes that annoyed me, a lot!

    What a load of bollocks, would annoy me too. Of course the speed limit is a target. It is in place as the safe maximum speed to travel.

    It is a speed limit which is defined as a speed you should drive under but as close to as is deemed safe, depending on the road conditions.

    This very helpful link goes into the finer detail:

    Edit to tidy up the gibberish wording.

    Indeed. If you are not comfortable driving at the speed limit where it is safe to do so, you should not be driving and ought to advise the DVLA accordingly.

    When you put your items on the checkout belt in the order you intend to pack them (heavy items at bottom, separate meat, frozen items together etc.) and the Doris on the checkout starts leaning into the middle of the belt for some reason to scan those items first instead of just scanning the ones at the front first and generally just fucks up the order and you just have this expression...

    I did that in the '70s, although in my defence I was about 14/15 at the time.
    I'd don't even need a comb nowadays.
