Ridiculous I know and I hate doing this but I really couldn't help myself here, sorry PW.

LOL being a Grammer Nazi is almost as council as my poor spelling. But you win this time. Well played Dear Fellow, Well Played!

Grammar.

Puns are not humour

Proper, multi-layered, subtle puns require a sharpened wit but are very scare indeed in these parts.


Regular puns (as per PH) are the total antithesis of wit. It's effectively like saying "durrr word sound same"

Frighteningly accurate assessment there.

Puns were started in Roman times when Robertus De Nero started telling a few around the senate. He was succeeded by Julius Caesarus Saladas, who gave way to Titus Arsus who was close with a denarius.

You forgot Titus Arsius's gay friend, Lucius.

Uber eats is so council, I am not surprised, whoever wants tepid, greasy food delivered is beyond me.

Either lazy people with more money than sense or people too stupid to realise it ends up costing loads more. Also going direct, many restaurants will give a discount.

Certainly Uber for things like KFC/maccys etc is very council. Either you are rediculously lazy - which is council, or you are too thick to realise you are getting fleeced - Council, or you are too poor to have a car and pick it up AND also too thick to realise you are being fleeced - uber council, to coin a phrase.

Eating junk fast food can, in some circles, be considered council in its own right. Getting same said trash delivered even more so.


If i gave a st, I would almost weep every time I drove past a Maccys to see the row of illegally parked uber/just eat drivers who have dumped cars anywhere. Is it really the society we want to live in where people are too lazy to even go and get the fast food junk that is making them morbidly obese.

I am sure will say its "convenience" and "demand" but when the side effect is a country full of fat people who are going to die early but be a burden on society while their health declines - is it really a good thing and something we should encourage or allow? I guess you could argue we need to reduce the old age population due to the pensions burden - guess making everyone die young of a heart attack or diabetes is one method!!

The trick is to only use them when they offer 50% discount. #ProperCouncil

I think double grammar nazi out trumps my spelling mistakes in terms of being council.

Taxpayer covers all of those expenses.

I wonder whats cheaper, cost to nhs etc of having to fix or treat peoples bad life choices causing an early death and health issues, or having to pay the pension and oap care for someone who lives healthy most thier life and dies much older?

There was a programme on Radio 4 today about the cost of diabetes. Apparently the cost of treating type two diabetes is about 2% of the total NHS budget. This figure may be larger or smaller than you imagined, depending on where your prejudices lay.

A couple to add.

Contractors that, rather than take away their waste / excess / mess from a job, decide to furtively walk a bit further down the road from the house they're working in, lift one of the soakaway drain covers and pour their crap down it. As evidenced last week courtesy of a decorator at a house in our road who went and poured some leftover white paint and excess plaster / plaster mix water down the drain This was followed shoftly after by shredding what was left of the plaster bag packaging into smaller pieces and chucking it into the garden / foliage of another house a couple of doors down the road.

Morons pretending that they're part of the Domino's advert. Walking past a house near where i live, which already had the required massively oversized trampoline with netting standing tall above the garden wall / neighbours fences, i managed to hear what appeared to be the mother, father and 2 kids all doing the crappy yodelling, as featured in the ad, as a response to the father asking where they wanted to order dinner from.

I find that advert rather amusing, but agree it should stay in the TV and not the real world.

Here you go, save for future use

To me, just the fact of calling it "Maccy's" is council. And do you have the right to point to the image of that beautiful burger and ask for one just like that? Sorry, I haven't been in one since having a coffee awaiting my new passport at Peterborough nearly ten years ago so times may well have changed.

Whilst I agree with the councilness, just proves the advert works.

Over the past decade, they have gone upmarket and become "Maccy D's".

Unless you're a P.I.M.P. and then it's Mickey D's.

Why would you even pay £40 per person towards a BBQ at a friends house, FFS some people are just so bloody stupid!
