World gone mad!

Yes yes, if course we believe that's what you meant..

But meanwhile what about this terrible 'madness' of biscuit renaming..??

That's the real offence here.. 🙄

Losing it now are we?

What about it?

How about 'Manhole ' as in the covers, should they be renamed in your opinion for example?

Or a Taxi driver, hot dog seller, street artist, Big Issue distributor or a plethora of things one might have gone to a town (City) In the WEST Midlands to do, but no you find it so much more enjoyable to be offended once more. Wokey dicks, I rest my case.

Only you know what you meant. What was it?

Well, it appears 'everyone' knew what I meant.

I guess from her profession she was attempting to attract custom for her fruit/veg emporium but what do I know?

Losing what, the thread, I really don't think so...

You're the one who started the thread, on the rebrand, so it clearly has made some kind of impression on you ..
I don't particularly care what anyone chooses to call them.

In the case of Sainsbury's I guess it was a management / marketing decision.

I'm not particularly bothered what anyone calls access to underground services either..

All this seems to froth you up quite a lot though..

To the point of having to insult anyone being thoughtful about language usage..

Imagine if it was something really serious though eh??

How on earth would you cope??

It didn’t read that way at the time. Are you telling the truth now?

Good grief, we know how innuendo works.

Manhole cover, happy with this one?

You know you could simply say, “Sorry Mudsticks, that was a poorly chosen and delivered attempt at banter. I have learned from my error.” If sincere, people will think better of you.

Which part of

'access to underground services'

Do you not understand..??

To be honest I'm slightly worried you're allowed to work on telecoms kit, if you can't read basic English..

Never !!!

We shall double down on our error forever..
Just like brexit really 😉

Tbh I wasn't really that bothered .

I used it more to illustrate the yawning gulf between what is leapt upon as 'unacceptable' by some posters, and their cheerleaders.

ie a 'shock horror' change in biscuit nomenclature.

Versus implying that someone is a prostitute - and not suggesting that in a respectful manner..

One of life’s pin pricks, I’m sure.

There are indeed sooo many pricks..

Anyone else get a "When Sheppy met Muddy" vibe from time to time?

Don't know who would be more horrified at the prospect .. 😳

I did spend a couple of nights in Wolverhampton one time..

Not sure if I'm ready to repeat the experience - just yet.. 🤔

 

[mudsticks]

Your point being?? 🙄
