'Orns Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 My good lady has started saying 'throw someone under the bus', that pisses me off She has a friend who doesn't have holidays, she has vacations, that pisses me off Another of her friends used the expression 'pay cheque'. I told her that pisses me off, it's a pay slip. There is nothing cheque like about it, you can't take it to a bank and cash it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gasbuster Posted December 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 If I am washing my car on the drive; it seems inevitable that either a neighbour or a passer by shouts out "You can do mine after, if you like.....hahahaha !". Similar if painting a fence, it is almost a certainty that some wag will comment "You missed a bit there, mate, hahaha !" How bleedin' hilarious, on both counts.

WTFiGO!?! Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 "......and Doncaster will play number 63, Bristol City." pissed me off tonight. What is it with people putting a "look" after everything. "I went to see our Ma, look. She gets everso lonely up there on her own, look." Just stop it, stop it immediately. Is it a Bristolian thing? I hope these people don't do it when they're conversing with the blind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S. Bristol Born & Red Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 "Can I get" seems to have replaced "can I have" in shops/pubs etc. Also, slightly off topic, but when I first started work, you used to be told "Go and ask for a long weight / left-handed screwdriver / bucket of steam..etc"...does this still happen?...

"Dum" means both."while" and "until". When modern light-controlled level crossings first appeared they had a sign reading "WAIT WHILE LIGHTS FLASH".

I work with a bloke who is a 100% knob and he pisses me off I've recently seen loads of M&S tv adverts for their 'Gifting Weekend' wtf is that?? And all the Welsh stuff on here is very funny yet so true. My best friend at school was French, but learnt most of her English from her very Welsh sister-in-law who adopted her...God she had an odd accent and weirder sayings by the time Bristolian was thown in too!

BRISTOL86 Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 When my missus says 'do whatever you want' when she actually means 'do what I want you to do or its over' On a serious note, it makes me absolutely rage how Americans say 'I could care less' instead of the correct 'I couldn't care less'. The point seems lost on them that they are actually saying that they COULD care less, and thus DO care about what they're trying to say they don't care about. Facepalm.
