Classic One Liners / Conversation Killers.
Discussion
Had a pint with an old Pal this lunchtime and we were reminiscing about an old family friend now longer with us. He was a Copper and worked his way up the ladder to Superintendent, he was old school, blunt and often crude but respected among his own. Two of his classics which I will never forget :
Young Copper. "Congratulations on your promotion Sir, has it made any difference to your home life"
Reply. " Eyy Lad", I take the washing-up out of the sink now before I piss in it "
Colleague of similar ranking : " Hell fire lad your putting some bloody weight on" (As he prodded his substantial stomach")
Reply. "They don't put bay windows in public s
t-holes'

t-holes' I was attending a business meeting when two of the attendees started chatting about schools and how their kids happened to be in the same class. Organiser of the meeting chimes in with "what are they, special needs?" Both of his colleagues just turned and looked at him ......"yes". I was the only external attendee and I could have crawled under the desk.
I was party to a heated conversation at work once with one of my guys discussing a particular construction detail with a young upstart from one of our subcontractors.
The guy who works for me has about 30 years experience & is right 99% of the time. Guy he was arguing with looked about 12, had brand new site gear and did not have a clue but would not listen to any suggestion other than his own.
At one point my guy loses his rag and comes out with "you know f
k all about everything and everything about f
k all."
