Possibly a combination of all three, or maybe it's just the bragging about said food that grates the most? I always remember someone on here boasting about have a posh omelette for tea (fratata I think it's called). Why not just say, I had a nice omelette for dinner? OR just not say anything at all.

Yes but the difference is rd I don't specify which wine I'm drinking with the intention of making people jealous. Sometimes it's lambrini, some blue nun, it might even be a sainsburys basic Pinot Grigio. It's not like I'm coming on here giving a specific year, grape variety etc on average I pay less than a fiver for most wine I drink. I take your point though. Wouldn't you agree though, there's something really annoying about people talking about fratata's? It's almost on a par with pizza for me.

How do you propose we research this?


And by "orgasm free", are we including solo efforts or sticking to bunk ups with partners?



I don't actually believe for a second that you have ever lacked the bottle to start anything!

We had this thread back in the "Tony london suburbs" days. I was stupid enough to actually take part in that painful conversation.

Fratata sounds like a Welsh/Irish/Scottish colloquialism for Fried Potato.

Exactly *Bob*. I don't mind the natives referring to their grub in the native tongue, but when poncy Brits start talking about 'ya I came home and it was too late for waitrose ya so I knocked up a fratata in the kitchen snort snort'. Makes me feel nauseous.

I agree there can be a lot of unnecessary 'oneupmanship' in some threads, can't remember the fratata thread, but one that springs to mind was someone asking for ideas for a honeymoon destination, wasn't long before we got something like white water rafting down the Amazon. Can't remember if I posted ''a wet weekend in Skeggy did it for me'' but I will next time...

This is a much higher standard than of late - KUTGW

That only proves that the bloke has "gotten there" once in 9 months. Says nothing about the women, other than perhaps they were hopeful 9 months ago...

Honestly Otta, I do struggle to appreciate the number of brats these people have. And it's always that whole ignorant "I let my child do what they want because telling them off is bad karma" or some bollocks like that. You're in a pub/cafe/shop with numerous screaming kids getting in the way of people, annoying them, and is there an apology? Is there bollocks! Control you bloody child you wanted to procreate learn how to teach them to be seen and not heard!


It's not all middle class women miga, but they are disproportionately represented in the category of annoying people. On the fratata topic, anyone be they male, female or yet to decide is also included.

      Does anyone have any experience with Resi or GoPlans architectural designers?

      By sharrison1 · Posted

      I don't know if you found someone in the end but I used home tales for my ground floor and loft and they were excellent. Much cheaper than the alternative (I got a RIBA quote and it was high). I used their builder too, also excellent x  www.hometales.co.uk

      Next PSC National March for Palestine 11th October 2025 12:00 pm - 4:30 pm Central London

      We buy oil from Russia (indirectly), we've been arming the Saudis in Yemen for years, where the civil war has brought about famine, we cut our aid abroad, which means less humanitarian help in places like Sudan, we sell whole swathes of our institutions and businesses to China and are letting them build a new embassy and overlook their spy network, so we can make deals, in spite of its mass murder of the Uyghurs. So we could protest these atrocities, because we're complicit in them, but it's not fashionable.  What do we get in exchange for selling 15% of the parts that go into Israel's F35's? Intelligence from probably the best security service in the world, which helps foil terrorist plots on UK soil, like the one back in May. It's not like we're sending them RPGs in the mail.  This isn't whatabouttery, it's just to highlight that it's never as binary as there being an all-out goodie and and all-out baddie.  What is wrong is calling for the eradication of a race, whatever race that might be, and sharing a platform with those racist protagonists, whether it's pro palestine groups, or the EDL. If everyone on here is so distraught about Palestine, why has there not been a single march against Hamas?  Everyone making their case for protesting here seems to think some of us are living under a rock or, worse still, aren't moved by the situation in Gaza.
