    It is pretty excellent, not the usual comedy it has depth.
    First 2 series are excellent (Series 3 isnt bad either by any means, and 4 is on the way) it also does a brilliant job of reinventing itself as well.
    Ted Danson is great fun in it, Jameela Jamil gets some of the best lines though with lots of hilarious name dropping.


    She also defo seems sound in real life and doesnt take herself to seriously.

    People that believe that there are more than two genders.

    Biologically you're either male or female, end of story.

    No problem with gay people or whatever it's the 'identify as...' bull crap.

    I see that even United Airlines now have a third checkbox for intending passengers. You can be Mr , Ms or Mx !!! The can of worms that opens is that you can now most likely insist that you be searched by an 'Mx' :D

    You're quite correct.

    Either you're genetically carrying two XX chromosomes - female. Or XY chromosomes - male.

    Although...

    You can also naturally be XXY, of course. It's just not all that common.

    And you can also be naturally XXYY, too. Oh, and just X. And, er, XXX. And... all the other naturally occurring genetic variations.

    I guess actually, when it comes down to it, no, you're completely incorrect...

    Just the kind of positive encouragement I need to go back to my human kidney collection. ;)

    I think I'm getting more tolerant over time. People do what they do and I think ultimately nobody has any real control over what they are. We have no control over our biological makeup and all we are is that and outside influences. I might not want to be around some people, I might think some opinions are stupid or someone lacks qualities I like but respect or a lack thereof, to me, implies an element of choice that I'm not sure exists.

    Slobs.

    For the first time in my life recently, I've been working with a true slob. I've met a lot of people who would inadvertently mess the room up or something, or smell bad, but a real slob is a different kettle of fish.

    It is remarkable that someone could go through life with everyone disgusted at almost everything they did. The email has gone out from the boss saying someone is acting this way. I'll see him tomorrow and it will be interesting to see if he realised it was about him.

    I've lived with a slob and it's beyond a joke . I think it's a symptom of brain injury in his case, though .

    He 'd refuse to be clean which is one thing but his hair would be full of god knows what from work . Knowing I have a 'special ' brush for v long hair, he would use mine. Until I saw him doing it I hadn't a clue why my hair seemed dirty after washing it. He'd scratch his itchy scalp, hard, with it, and couldn't seee that washing his hair would alleviate the itchiness.Bought him a new brush but he wouldn't use it til I hid mine.


    He'd urinate out the door to avoid walking ten steps to the downstairs bathroom , and store his dirty clothes (which he hated anyone washing or folding neatly ) on the low table in the sitting room , on the rabbit cage and the back and arms of the sofa.

    Sounds nasty as hell. Thankfully, I don't have to be around this guy in his home. His behaviour in the workplace is already bad enough that it's a talking point for many.

    Ugh... Just how. And he's a perfectly happy dude so from a distance, I wouldn't say depression. We don't know if he doesn't realise or doesn't care.

    The only mandatory rule with beans is that they must NEVER at any time be allowed to come into contact with the sausages.

    I'm happy enough to have them on the fry or to leave them out - but if included, then the rashers and pudding must be used as a barrier to protect the sausages.

    You shouldn't have to tell people this - it's common human decency. It's what separates us from the animals:mad:

    Ah, postmen...

    That was the obvious answer I suppose!

    I had a mental image of some moustache twirling pantomime villain, trying to knock off a poor unsuspecting pooch by dropping a heavy book on him from a great height - once it got in there, I just couldn't get it back out again!

    Much funnier than the postman though.:D

    i want to clarify, he had personality changes from concussions , as far as i know . he's a fully functioning adult, actually very popular , and isn't classed as disabled . in fact he's sly and calculating .

    People who chuck tea bags in the sink. There is absolutely no excuse for this. You could maybe make an argument that some is tired and will come back in the morning and wash their dirty dishes....maybe....but you're never going to wash a used tea bad so just put it in the bin you animal!

    In one particular pub I know, the structure is quite narrow and the toilets are right at the back. When it's busy you have to fight your way through to get to them. For people situated in the front of the pub, you sometimes see them taking the easier option - just going out the front door and p*ssing directly onto the street.

Or the cunts in supermarkets that pick up something from the frozen section then change their mind about buying it and just dump it on the nearest shelf so it defrosts and has to be thrown out.

    I think most of it doesn't go into the toilet in pub bathrooms anyway . Judging by the choking miasma of wee fumes in one of the local pubs.Probably safer to do it outside .


    They have street urinal things in Paris :eek:

    At home I usually eat them from the ramekin they come in (ie the tin) - removes the cross contamination risk, but I think I might up my game from now on!
