I got yelled at by my teacher for laughing at her saying 'Book' (as in Boo!-k) at my first day in year 7 at secondary school.
I had moved to the North East 2 weeks previously from Essex and had what was seen as a 'posh' accent thanks to my mum stamping out any accent in me as an English teacher. Yes I was eaten alive by bullies, I had no ****ing chance.
Took me ages to understand what most were saying. Still think broad/ thick Brummie and Scouse are harder to understand and like, but ultimately just don't ever got to Middlesbrough.Last edited by Blobcat; 05-08-2019, 23:00.

First proper day off in the four months since I opened my beer shop. So I say to my wife “you know what, I’m going to have a lazy day and switch the PS4 on for the first time since new year”. So I thought I’d try out the Red Dead II given to me by a customer, stick it in and yeah, I might get to play it in two hours once it installs. Modern gaming sucks balls.

Originally posted by Colin View PostFFS, so I do all the data disc install, now I’ve to wait another hour on the game disc installing? I’ll be back at work before it’s time to play it at this rate.
Pre release patch.
Instal from disc.
Day 1 patch.
Patch clean up and install.
It’s ridiculous.

TV licensing.
You can’t just log in and cancel your license. You have to log out, search for cancelling and are then presented with a cancel button. This button does not take you to a cancel menu but instead invites you to ask them a question which they then try to present answers to. In the end I just filled the question box with:
I’ve moved house to one that already has a tv license paid for by someone else and I’ve cancelled my direct debit.
Bye!
