Annoying words that have cropped up in our language

If you ever went to the gents in the old Upland Tavern, you would have know why bathroom was appropriate as you often felt like you bathed in it after wading through misdirected 2nd hand beer 🤨 -
It's worth checking your bank balance for the rebate of ?150 as you may already have received it thus giving you confidence in ignoring any scam messages to claim your rebate.

Extinction Rebellion to camp on Peckham Rye park for 2 weeks
Spartacus replied to MrsR's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
According to the article "The activists say they will leave the park by Monday 18 April to make way for a traveller?s funeral procession" Knowing travellers funerals, that's a going to be a spectacular sight to see. -
Whilst this is possibly not the correct path to follow, given that the government are planning on opening more safe routes into the UK, how would people propose to removing the people smugglers from the equation?

SpringTime, are you trying to say they are selling me a dream. Well no thank you very much the one where I go to work naked is bad enough hence why I don't go out much KidKruger or Socalise DR as I don't want that dream expanding into a naked trip to the pub (let's be honest absolutely no one would want to see that) No thank you indeed, one bad dream at a time is enough for me

The real question is Regardless of political party or current role in government or shadow governents, who would you vote for as prime minister if there was an election tomorrow ? To be honest my choice is simply none of the current MPs

Is it just me or is there something a little weird about how advertisers show their house "sets" for different products? A prime example is adverts for vacuum cleaners/ carpet cleaners where the sofas are covered in crumbs and pet hairs or there is a big pile of dirt on the carpet. Obviously the fake family are so messy that they need the product but most real people don't have homes like that (or do they?). Other examples are massive luxury kitchens in food delivery or food kits adverts or bathrooms bigger than the inside of the Tardis for toilet cleaners All quite surreal if you ask me.

I agree that it's horrible and getting worse but on the lighter side I suspect dogs can't read and the stencils are useless to them 😉

Spartacus replied to MrsR's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Should this thread now be moved to the lounge as its no longer ED specific ? In relation to XRs actions, they are now in their 4th year, instead of causing disruption over that period, some of them could have completed degrees in physics, chemistry, biology and electronics and then taken research jobs in industries looking at reaching net zero and helped us all achieve that goal rather than expecting governments on their own or peoples assembly to be able to solve the problem. Brains not brawn is the real way forward. -
Check your submitted meter readings I just went onto my account and the readings that were showing up on the 1st April as accepted on the 31st March have now vanished 🤪

I would recommend that viewing the Michael Mosley documentary on catch up will give you cause to think about the first part (eating less) and some interesting facts about exercise alone won't help. If nothing more, it's a fascinating investigation

Maybe, playing the devil's advocate, humans shouldn't be stopped from going extinct as the planet would be better off without us and given a short period of time (geology speaking) it will recover and thrive just like it did post the dinosaur extinction event.
