    theres nothing worse than a patronising cnut, boils my blood. What have you come across and how did you react in this type of situation?

    my ma does this thing where everytime she has to speak to or deal with a foreigner, whether it be a takeaway delivery or whatever, she speaks slower, in a ''different'' kind of tone. Not the same casual way she'd speak to you and me. I just think I'd be so pissed off if I was at the receiving end of that kind of thing.

    I assume something happened recently that has set you off and made you make this thread, please share :)
