I'm sorry but it is and always will be pronounced 'click' to me.

Eating late and going to bed only to be rolling around all night because my tummy is in ribbons. Also waking up upside down the next morning with my face next to feet.

They are so self entitled AND they are OLD. Like die already.

The 10-year-olds in Tesco probably thought you were old...

I wish! Nope I went to sleep the right way up and woke up with a size ten in need of a pedicure in my face. At least he had pretty feet in his face!

I'd say they thought the opposite, going on that post. :pac:

The plural of 'you' is 'you'.

Yes, I know this. That's my whole point though. It's a trivial annoyance to me that there's not a separate word for it. I thought that was clear.

Now that's not very nice. Am I the only one who regularly meets old folks who are perfectly nice, polite, and generous??

On the subject of old people, why do they have that old person voice. Do they get it at a certain age. Did they sound like that in their 20's?

I like when new people ask loads of questions. I'm far more concerned about the prospect of having to later rely on the ones who don't.

It wasn't that clear to me, since you said there is "no real proper plural of you" and went on to list all the incorrect ones. I inferred from this that you weren't aware that there is a real proper plural of you.

What annoys you then is that there isn't a distinct word for the plural of you.

Just as a matter of interest, at what age does one become "old"? or is just someone who is always say twenty years older than you? Is it a state of mind?

I know people of twenty five and they would bore the arse off you, and I know people who are sixty five who are great fun, and in a lot of cases older people can be far more interesting....just an observation.

I've started to notice this recently as well.

That and them talking like toothless babies because they have ill-fitting dentures.

Also, a lot of them use childish phrases like "Ask the man......" when talking to each other.

I wonder about that myself. When my late father was 66, he took a 1991 GSX-R750L I had at the time for a garry up the road ("just ta see what kinda power is in her, like!"), and had the front wheel a clear two feet off the ground. No helmet, in his shirt-sleeves. At the age of 80 he'd be hopping around on the roof like Bruce Lee, cleaning chimney-pots or adjusting the TV areal, or whatever. This "old" malarkey is mostly in the mind, if you ask me! :pac:

Download this with some sort of video downloader, zip it up, and send it back to them as an attachment:

Oh you know, the usual awkward sh1t imposed on me by the gods that be - My crush needed help opening a door (her hands were full) and I happend to be standing at the door but I had no pass. She was all like, "oh here, you can use mine" - I froze in fear when I realised that hers was hanging around her neck.... So I had to be cool while I took the card without molesting her (it's hanging right there ffs there is no way to avoid physical contact without using one of those pastry forks from the bread counter) so I managed that and then realised the access point is really quite low so we had to do this mutual bend towards it, her with her full hands, me basically leading her by her card like a dog while I tried not to throttle her. And then when I did manage to get the door open, I was on the wrong side so I had to hold it open with an outstretched arm while she ducked under...and I completely forgot to let go of the badge

It will take me a week to recover
