I would f
king piss myself if I heard anyone say anything like that in person. I know it's a terrible thing to say, but he really makes his wife sound like an awfully shallow, horrible person. I wonder how many times he's heard "You're not putting that in me unless I get a new pair of Choo's."Anyway. My mum's got a Cartier. She can be a right miserable old
.Bring back the cringe thread. Please.

I cringe when people amend the name of things to appear derogatory and yet witty (in their mind) at the same time:
Liverfool
Flea-bay
Southern Snail
Faceache
I'd like to nominate 'Sleazy Jet'. Liverfool
Flea-bay
Southern Snail
Faceache
when asking how someone is, they reply "not three bad"
I once interviewed a chap (in his flat) with a colleague. he answered the door with just a towel round him. Some filthy old man.
when we sat down- us opposite on high dining room chairs, him sinking into an armchair
his balls fell out of his undercracker. And remained on display. FFS.
we then noticed his extensive collection of adult VHS cassettes under his telly. (this isn't that long ago either)

"Pics?" When a female is mentioned in a thread.
You should be a member of the MX5Nutz facebook group. When a female posts something MX5 related a guranteed 10 blokes will start arse kissing. So cringe!Edited by Ikemi on Thursday 18th May 13:58

Thats weird, the only woman I know who has a Cartier is a right social climbing conscience free zone, was banging another bloke as her husband lay dying, moved him in a week after the funeral.
Cartier is IME the female Rolex, an aspirational brand for people who aren't into watches and want something to impress their mates.I accept that not all owners of either are this way inclined but certainly a lot are.
Whilst we are on the topic, "wrist time" is a good one that never fails to make me cringe.

Same on the Lotus FB groups too ... It's like some of the members have never been with, or have spent time around women before!
I agree, if it was serious, but I see it as a very tired attempt at playing to the stereotype of car people being boring and socially inept.Edited by Ikemi on Thursday 18th May 13:58

For a moment then I thought 'wrist time' meant something entirely different.Tuvra said:

I don't get the watches forum or the love of watches. It's not cringey I just don't get it. Each to their own.
Its the over-inflation of their hobby/things they like into items of social significance I don't get. It's just materialistic nonsense that betrays an awful lot about the individual in my opinion.

Jeez, thats terrible. Imagine being so socially inept as to still own a video recorder...when we sat down- us opposite on high dining room chairs, him sinking into an armchair

Never understood the appeal of wearing something that costs as much as a new small hatchback on your wrist or has servicing/cleaning costs the same as a car service. I have 3 watches but haven't worn them in over 5 years as I always just check my phone to see the time. I have a 'nice' watch (cost about £100) which I have to actively remind myself to wear but forget most of the time. Might get myself a cheap £5 casio aka suicide bombers favourite soon just so that ill have a watch to look at instead of taking my phone out my pocket all the time.
I have a casiof-91w on my wrist at the moment, I find the hourly beep very useful, trying to explain to others why is tedious.Although when a certain person hears at work he does chime up ''oooh must be time for the hourly aids tablet''

I like watches and spend a fair bit of time on the watch forum, but.......'worn in rotation'. I accept that not all owners of either are this way inclined but certainly a lot are.
