'Did you hear Jacinta is pregnant?' 'I didn't even know that she was going out with someone, who is it for?' Always struck me as a bizarre turn of phrase, like she's doing him a favour or something.

As if it is just something that happens to you without any involvement with anyone else, they must all be immaculate conceptions :pac:

One story was about "Margaret", 19 with three kids ona rare night out, meets Jim, 53 year old divorcee in the pub, talks for half an hour and then goes back to his place and rides him and is now up the duff. She says " I mean, I hardly know him" Correction, you don't fcuking know him. And you get fifty quid for telling the nation your lovely story:D

"Words cannot describe" : Yes they can, there's a whole feckin bunch of em who exist just to describe things. When you're reading a Stephen King novel and its aliens again. When you're reading a murder mystery and they withhold a piece of evidence from the reader which is only revealed as the guilty party is being condemned by the protagonist- giving you no opportunity to figure it out for yourself. When you're on a night out and someone doesn't ask before taking 500 selfies with you. When a bartender puts the change on the counter instead of into your hand. [B]when the toast pops and the kettle is no where near boiled [/B] people who pet your dog on the road without asking first ( I've a German Shepherd and he's a bit flighty, scary when you see someone stick a hand out to him)
