I was exercising restraint!

My sister sent me this from her local Facebook page



I was very dissapointed with the cars being posted, I expected somebody to post a R8 or Lambo or something but nope... Somebody with a Q7, somebody with a C200 Mercedes, somebody with a green Ford Ranger, a bloke posted his R700 Scania V8 which I would have been happy with.


And then this...



The lady posted about 10 pictures of it.

Football somehow manages to turn perfectly normal non-council people into 100% council.

I don’t get it.

Perhaps they were really council all along. Just hiding it under a mask of education/civility.

In hindsight, the signs were all there. The sort of people who think “smart trainers” are a thing.

There are many people for whom the cost of the item equates to how smart it is rather than the actual appearance. Large visible brand labels. Council.

Saw this on my internet travels

What reaction did that get? Or was it a comment disabled sort of post? If I caught someone parking on my Dad's grave I would be very cross.

chances are the golf belongs to the caravan brigade and all the plots are their family so no harm done.
Who buys a plot next to a pylon?

Threatening violence whilst at work, whilst working for the council = council

Football really is the epitome of council, it is really the overarching set and everything else council fits into it.

Absolutely agree.

Thankfully, I'm told all the games will be played in the middle of our night so pubs that have TVs won't be full of chanting oafs.

Sadly I can confirm that that is not the case. At a carvery (council) at the TV is on with the 'footy' showing

Oh bks.
I also enjoy a carvery. Stonehouse are very good if you arrive at the beginning of service when the vegetables are still fresh and haven't been sneezed on by OAPs. They send me half price vouchers occasionally - at £6 a proper meal for the price of a McDonalds. One has to get timings right to avoid the UC single mothers with their obligatory screaming brats.

Just seen this for sale on a local FB page.

Ticks a lot of boxes

Is that the Wing'd Horse of ChavTat on the shelf?

Worse, it's part of a shrine to 'Sparkle', who probably exploded in the microwave while being dried-off after a walk in the rain.

The poster which although at first glance looks like the usual 'Live Love Laugh' atrocity from Home Bargains is a bespoke-yet-nauseating tribute to the mutt. There are pics of the little furry bd between the Wings of ChavTat.

It made me think of the ad Top Gear did for the Scirocco…

Hopefully all of the comments above you realised that, but I'm not so sure these days.

I am curious, genuinely. What, specifically, gives away that the picture is AI generated?

I'm curious also, I am usually pretty good at spotting AI slop but didn't see it at all in this one. The car looks a bit "floaty" at the back but the reflection of the pylon seems to work which I think AI would struggle with. Also, it seems like something "council" would do.

I assume it goes without saying that relying on AI for everything = Council

The MD of a company I used to work for was like this. Really nice guy, very well spoken etc. When someone asked him about football he suddenly wne into this weird sort of cockney accent, dropping ts and hs etc. I asked him why he suddenly spoke like that but he didn't really realise he was doing it. Very strange.

it could well be that his 'footy' mates all talk like that, and so he adjusts his speech patterns to reflect this?
