Are you trying to suggest that using the shortened version of Mongol or Mongoloid which is what Down's syndrome kids were called years ago Ito describe the shortcomings of others is ok? You probably think saying Spaz is ok too.The home of juvenile behaviour.

Can I nominate myself here - At the weekend, I said to my girlfriend (who I love very much and I am very lucky that she ignored my being pretty rude to her when we first started talking) the following "You're from Barnsley, you'll do".
It was funny in my head and it was meant in a funny way, but two of my (male) friends recoiled and winced when I said it. It took about an hour of apologizing and grovelling to dig my way out of that chasm.
There was a LOT of drink involved in my defence....

she doesn't sound like she has much of a sense of humour!It was funny in my head and it was meant in a funny way, but two of my (male) friends recoiled and winced when I said it. It took about an hour of apologizing and grovelling to dig my way out of that chasm.

So I just showed the Mrs a video of two absolute plebs on celebrity big brother debating whether a fish is an animal or not, expecting "what a pair of morons".
But no
"You've got me second guessing myself now..."
"A fish is different though.. It's not like, you know, piggy"
"so what is a standard vegetarian? A vegetarian is not a vegan!"
Honestly. I despair.

Its a worry! I have met a few women who claimed to be vegetarians whilst still eating fish. When I said that doesn't make them vegetarians it was me that was mocked... best of it was one ate chicken as that doesn't count (Apparently) so then the fish eating vegetarians took her to pieces whilst I made an exit!But no

Someone that is a 'vegetarian' but also eats fish is a Pescetarian. A Pollo-Vegetarian is a vegetarian that eats chicken but not red meat. But no

I guess it comes from your personal reasons for vegetarianism. If you think that eating animals is cruel then you wouldn't eat chicken and fish. If you are a vegetarian because you think eating red meat gives you cancer, then eating white meat is probably acceptable.
I think labelling yourself as a vegetarian when you eat chicken is plainly wrong though....

How can you tell if someone is a vegan?
Don't worry, they'll be sure to tell you.
A few weeks ago a female friend came over for lunch in the garden. Now, the female in question is a super bright, three distinction degree and MBA'd type who's highly respected within her 9-5. She also has very little common sense, bloody awful general knowledge and even worse geography. This often leads me to play little games with her in the knowledge she'll have legs firmly pulled and good all round humour for all. The conversation came round to Brexit and the EU immigration issues within Germany and Poland...at this point I detected a major gap in her cranial capacity in understanding Poland's precise location 
after some discussion I suggested she draw Poland's location in relation to Germany and France...which in turn lead to me asking her to position other countries and to draw a map of Europe through to Asia. For your afternoon humour, here's a traced copy of her original sketch 
PS when asked, what happened to Benelux, Austria, Czech Republic, Hungary, Iran, Iraq, Egypt, Israel et al, there was a clear blank in her cognitive activity!

I think that sketch of the UK belongs in the "Juvenile things that make you snigger" thread all on its own and not for geographical reasons after some discussion I suggested she draw Poland's location in relation to Germany and France...which in turn lead to me asking her to position other countries and to draw a map of Europe through to Asia.

Last winter I got home form work to be told that there was something wrong with the brakes on her car.
On a frosty morning 'I braked at the top of the Beacon (steep hill) and they juddered so I decided not to go that way and turned back to go the other way.' (avoiding the steep hill but is much longer)
Me - that would be the ABS
Her - but why did it start doing it then?
Me....give up!
