Really minor annoyances

People fron Houghton say they will get a telephone number from the “Director of Enquiries”

This is a historical anecdote and based on my experience of one lass from Houghton.

I accept it’s statistical validity may be somewhat suspect and open to challenge.
Once is enough.
 

Move somewhere civilised, my mate was born in Lanark and moved to Glasgow as a teen, me Mam used to nod and grin when he spoke.
😀
Neighbour is the person you work with.
I went in to a fish and chip shop in the centre of Glasgow and asked for “one fish and chips please”

The lady behind the counter said in response “ggiinneeeareachreesharooomiytomiloodhmacinachtyglycchheeed”

I could have been in Soviet Russia or Mongolia. I literally could not understand a word she said.

Wedgies.

Being relatively healthy but suffering from hellish IBS to the point where the list of foods I can't have is substantially longer than the food I can have; while big fatties can cram as much food in their kite as they want with fuck all digestive consequences other than probably using half a bog roll every day.

Oh stop being dramatic, it's obvious. She was just asking if you wanted salt and vinegar on your fish supper.
 
People not getting with the times and ordering CDs off the internet like a pure spenk.
I sometimes order DVDs.

Went to watch Westworld season 3. It was 5 years ago we saw season 2, no idea what was going on. Options were to buy the whole lot from Google play for £20 or £30 a series. Subscribe to HBO, but only watching an episode a week with the wife, who usually falls asleep through anything half way through and it ends up being half an episode per week, it would cost a fortune to stay subscribed to the end.

Or get the DVD box set for less than £20 and watch them when we like.

And then sell them on Ebay for £20.
