Surely that would be 'Shawn's Chin'

Wellend - Usually a gentleman of slightly advancing years who thinks he is in Oasis.  They are often clad in mod paraphernalia such as a fishtail parka and Ben Sherman tops but always have a ridiculous barnet usually sported by runner up to Alan Shearer in Britains most boring man, and alleged rapist Paul Weller. And they are all either a proud or a shy Tory.

(I should point out in the interest of balance that I am a gentleman of slightly advanced years who has quite long hair.  However, I didn't pay upwards of 100 quid for it and when I look in the mirror, the last thing I think is "Yes, I look really good today")

What's the term for saying something offensive, but it being okay because you followed it with, "bit racist, yeah?" and did a face?

FAO Chest, football refers to a ball sport that’s very popular around the world. It is traditionally an eleven a side game and has fans all over the world. Cities tend to be hubs for fans. Liverpool has Liverpool and Everton. Glasgow has Celtic and The Rangers, and London has many teams including Tottenham Hotspur, Crystal Palace, Manchester United, and Arsenal.

We really need to add spicy foot / arm in tribute to @wandshogun09's daughter's description of having pins and needles.

[Carbomb]

Seconded.

A friend of mine's kid uses "fizzy foot" as well, but I think "spicy" wins out.

[TheBurningRed]

I use fizzy foot too. I know one other person who says it. It’s more common that I thought.
