  • The origin of the word pish

  • Not

    Modern myth. Even P&O who allegedly stamped tickets posh can find no evidence that they ever did this. More likely a slang term for young dandys at Victorian universities.

  • I’m not imparting some arcane secrets, it’s not some kind of obscure nautical knowledge. It’s standard stuff, it’s a broadly accepted convention

  • Adults who use the word hollibobs.

    I think this might be a re-post.

  • Let me be the first to point out the nomenclature and colours (of navigation lights) applies to aircraft and spacecraft too.

    Also, port/left/red are all shorter words than starboard/right/green.

  • Also, port/left/red are all shorter words than starboard/green/right.

    Like it. I also used to remember which was the Arctic and which was the Antarctic by thinking about the size of the words sitting on top of each other - bigger word at the bottom > Antarctic must be the southern one.

    Anyway, back to hate venting - being in a good mood I don't currently have anything to offer 🤷

  • I would just like to say I don't support the death penalty

  • Easily solved, it shouldn't go either way coz it should stay with me (said the Bishop of Norwich)

  • Covid. It's just knocked me out for the best part of a week. Again

  • Reminds me of that 80's song with "Klingons on the starboard bow".... Did the Enterprise have a port and starboard bow?

  • 1 Series owners. Universally such cunts.

    If I had three wishes, my 2nd (after world peace natch) would be to force them all to drive 1.0l maestros for the rest of their lives.

  • +Mercedes A class
    +Audi A3

  • What if my holibobs are a staycation in the UK?

  • You would deserve to be nuked from space for language abuse.

  • You have mentioned that one before, I recall making a mental note to drop it into conversation with you.

    But then I forgot.

    Soz

  • I'd like to add staycations to the things I hate. Sorry but I don't feel like I'm on holiday if I have to walk past a Greggs.

    If I'm going to drive to the new forest to go on holiday, I may as well keep going, cross the Channel and be somewhere that feels culturally different. It's usually cheaper than staying on this god forsaken island anyway.

  • I disagree with your use of staycation, even if it is popular in the stupid media, and I disagree with you about holidays in the UK.

    I've had some amazing trips in blighty. Cornwall and Northumberland have some of the best beaches in the world for example.

  • More than 95% of my holidays in my lifetime have been in the UK. In-laws live in Cornwall and we go for 2 weeks, sometimes 3, a year.

    What skiing there is in the UK isn't great though.

  • I remembered it because the Arctic is the one with the bears, hence the name.

  • The same cnuts who say xx many sleeps till Christmas.

    Fuck off.

  • Most of our holidays now are Scotland or Wales. Mull, Arran, the Highlands are great, especially if you like nature / wildlife.

  • The same cnuts who say xx many sleeps till Christmas.

  • "staycation" is annoying because we don't say vacation in the country I reside in.
    I prefer* holistay

    *I don't.

  • You are pretty safe once you cross the Tamar, Launceston is the only Greggs in Cornwall
