Little things that irritate you

Anything goes in The Snug, General Discussion's rebellious little brother. An off-topic den of iniquity where any subject not covered elsewhere may be discussed. Well, anything except golf, Star Wars and Arsenal.

In what sense?

Town they live in, street, or that they live with partners/parents etc?

Loads of people I know do that. Tell you they live somewhere only to discover it's well outside the place they told you. I always pick them up on it, and they all try to justify it one way or another. Pathetic aspirational helmets.

Myself after a certain amount of wine. Can't be amicable or jolly, no, it's as if been conditioned for generations upon generations of drinking before battle or something. Hit's 11pm on a night out and i'm either trying to poke someone's eye out or falling asleep in a taxi. If i were a dog i'd of been muted long ago. No place for it nowadays.


Need to learn how to dance for four hours to music i can't stand.

A mate of mines' son has just moved out of the family home. I asked where he's moved to, he replies Thorpe Bay. Very nice im thinking. Turns out he doesnt live in Thorpe Bay........he lives in Shoebury. Geographically not far away, but anyone that knows the area will vouch, they are quite different.

Now it is some kind of immunity clause against vile behaviour and comments.
Just stabbed someone in the eye with a fork? Banter.

I understand and understand the difference.

Was it that he just wasn't sure on the boundary?

I live in Leigh, but I'm not entirely sure where the border with Chalkwell starts.

Trust me, he knows the difference.

It's like people that say they live in Langdon hills when really they live in Laindon.

Border snobbery I call it.

I have noticed this a lot recently meeting people that I haven't seen in a while.

Me: "So where are you living now?"

Them: "Loughton"

Me: "Very nice, whereabouts?"

Them: "Well you know The Broadway? A bit further along from there"

Me: "So you live in Debden then"

You can also swap Loughton for Leytonstone and Debden for Leyton

I think if I lived in Laindon I would substitute every song or song title with the word "London" for "Laindon" because that's the kind of sad existence that I live. :oops:
