Ah, the LFGSS table.

We went to a really posh wedding in Henley on Thames - the reception was held in the boat house where the tables appeared to be arranged by profession. There was the bankers table (that was a big one) , the business people table , wealthy creatives etc and we were assigned the 'miscellaneous' table - a ragged mix of oddities , cokehead musicians , family black sheep , a posh tramp and postal clerks.

Probably did you a favour.

Yep - once they asked "and what are you in ?" they wandered off.

I've still not forgiven @TW for sticking me on the @dancing james table at his wedding.

If the wedding is posh, always remember to fart on the cheeseboard

He put @ChainBreaker on the table of shame!
I like the notion that was my table. I thought it was a table of miracles - bike nerds with partners.

People being interviewed that start their reply with "That's a very good question".

‘Let me be clear…’
Politicians are the worst for limiting the amount of time they have to spend answering questions. It drives me mad.

A posh tramp LOL!

Interviewed under caution?

"Look..." 😡🔪

Not sure if it's an just an Australian thing, whenever I hear anyone start a conversation like that my eyes glaze over and I shut down... 🙄

I'm fortunate enough not to have had it used on me in person, only on television shows

“Look” is particularly infuriating when radio presenters say it to grab listeners attention.

"look" I can tolerate, but " you know" can fuck right off.
I used to work with a person that used "you know" two to three times per minute in conversation.
As a result I assumed he was full of shit and didn't know what the fuck he was talking about.
The employer figured this out later and sacked him. -

It's a metaphor. When used in that meaning with somebody who's in the same room, it still isn't a literal instruction. "Listen" as a substitute would be at least as patronising.

We did actually feel bit bad afterwards for putting him on a table of strangers (who are all really nice people, though, in our defence).
It could have been worse - we could have put him next to the 80+ year old woman that my MIL invited (not us - we didn't want her there at all) to sit on the top table, who we had to chaperone, entertain and placate, and keep away from the booze.

Sounds like a job for Iain
