    Lol!! I've always hated that too. Lids pop open to let the squishy stuff inside out. I like the squishy stuff in my head to stay inside.

    Will fly through the test (NCT) :mad:

    Minor repairs only required....well fix them then

    1. So NCT it and then I'll buy it if you're that sure.

    I hate 'in terms of', sounds a bit too stifled for everyday speech. Also hate when people talk like they are reading out a college essay.

    During the British queen's Jubilee, Stephen Fry referred to Fergie's daughter Beatrice's hat as a lid. It still bothers me to this day.

    Somewhere else in AH somebody is going on about how sweet ''I love the bones of you " is... I despise it...it sounds like it's just missing "boss" at the end to make it complete

    Cray cray. There is no context other than direct (and scornful) quotation in which you can use this and I will not assume you are a moron.

    A vehicle is slowed by application of the brakes NOT breaks!
