Splitting hairs Foxy …splitting hairs.
Morty - Is this the post you’ve been referring to?
@Lindyloo …yes, that’s the one.
Perhaps I’m just been picky. It just seemed a bit flippant to me given the seriousness of the situation.
I don’t think you’re being picky at all Morty - it’s flippant and disgusting! An apology to all members of the forum is overdue!
When Nelson gets his eye back…
I wish people wouldn’t do that. I hate it!
The correct method is two fingers - index and middle finger, back of the hand facing the recipient.
We’re British, and proud of it.
One of my Chinese friends says, “When the cat gets horns” which very much appeals to me as an expression.
No you just chose to believe what some unqualified saddo says on the internet .
If you say so Muddy…Happy Christmas anyway.
Apparently the two fingers originates from English archers at Agincourt, the birdie from Ancient Greece.
The other afternoon it was pouring with rain and just getting dark. I was at the pharmacy collecting a prescription and they only allow one person in at a time so everyone else has to stand outside. There were about 10 of us in the driving rain. there was an area immediately outside the door which had a glass cover for shelter. The man in front of me was under it and I was getting rained on. he had a mask on. i asked him if he would move forward so a couple of us could get under too and he said “social distancing!l. I said “but we are outside in the fresh air and we all have masks on.
That was a bit picky … and mean spirited.
I try to social distance in the supermarkets now, though not everyone bothers, but outside … in the rain… bah humbug.
You should have taken off your mask and breathed at him!
Or grabbed hold of him and thrown him in front of a passing bus.
You should have said “Haven’t you heard, Coronavirus is allergic to the rain! Now move up Buster!”
That seems a little extreme Dex.
Then the bus would run late and everyone would suffer.
Fair point Morty. I think I was suggesting that being a tedious and obnoxious tw*t is potentially more dangerous that catching covid.
Morticia !
With the frequency of the buses around here, by the time one came, you would have had to get married.
