  • Doesn't it just confirm what people already knew, you don't have to be very bright to be a bomb disposal expert?

  • Ah, I misunderstood dicki's reason for calling it a fail. He didn't mention the attempted murder and it looked like he was calling her stupid because of her husband has a very specialised skill set which somehow she should be able to pick up on.

  • sorry for the confusion
    even the least intelligent special constable wouldn't have too many problems establishing a short list for said attempted murder

    i'll get my coat
    never darken the doors of epic fail again
    FLOUNCE

  • (hair+extralong skirt+bike=epic....=)

    I'm almost more disgusted by the rack/wheels combo.

  • Of course if you wanted her dead, and you knew her husband was a bomb expert, and you could conceive of a motive for him to kill her then death by bomb would be a convenient way to divert attention to the innocent husband.

  • the old switcher-oo
    a bit of misdirection you think
    the plot thickens
    i would love to be a PI

    ha! also I remember my English teacher saying "*sigh..*Pictures are hung, people are hanged!"

  • He is like a real life Alan Partridge. Cringing with embarrassment.
    Not as much fail as this one, though - Blacks Property Consultants from York

  • I'm not laughing - I've been there. Someone once stepped forward towards me, arm extending, I reached out to grasp his hand for a manly British handshake. Unfortunately he was going for an urban fist-bump, and I gripped his fist and shook it before I realised my mistake.

  • Thats called a cabbage when that happens

    No! Youre a cabbage!

  • My girlfriend's mother once asked what happened to Magnum Part II.

  • There are some Saffas who will squash your extended hand when they go for a bear hug instead of a handshake, aren't there, Ian? :-)

    Bahahahahaha!

  • These are just some of the many over-priced pieces of crap you can buy from the Bradford exchange. Almost as good as the elvis-dambusters-tutankhamun memorial clock from Viz...

    I've been there too... Both ways. That's the trouble with modern britain - so many physical greetings going that you never know which one to go with. Air kiss? Mediterranean double kiss? Man-hug? Handshake? Fist-bump? The armwrestle-position hand-grip?
    As an aside, there's an old politican's handshake trick - when out pressing the flesh among the workers, it used to be quite common for some beefy miner or suchlike to reach out to shake a politician's hand, then give it a serious crushing - that soft office-based hand had no chance against an old-school manual worker. So the canny politician would always grasp the person's elbow with their other hand. It seems extra-chummy and sincere, but then if they go for the hard squeeze, you can dig a finger into the funny-bone pressure point. Bill Clinton used that move all the time.

  • It's all fucked up for the old school Poles too. We were brought up to kiss lady's hand - which is ok, because you don't need to kiss your great aunt on the lips three times like Russians :-)

    It's not so obvious anymore and I found myself wrestling with a woman while trying to kiss her hand. You feel like a right gimp when your head is half way there and the female part twists the hand to the side in the last seconds.
