Off Topic but I used to go to the same pub after work every Friday and it got so on walking in they started pulling my drinks knowing I started on the left guest and worked my way right through them. It was lovely to not even need to order, just walk in and sit down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely blissful times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members gmoney Posted February 27, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted February 27, 2022 There was a guy who came into the shop I used to work in who used to buy Embassy Filter, except the second time he'd ask for them he'd say "20 of them" and you'd be expected to remember. Everyone else in the shop would and he was known as "20 Of Them". When he asked me for "20 of them" I'd pretend I didn't know what he meant and I'd make him say it. Sometimes I'd give him Mayfair Lights and he'd have correct me. This is probably more for a "reasons you are a prick" thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s like when I lost a game of darts at a big tournament so I chalked the next game on the board. Eric Bristow was playing so I asked him “What’s your initials, mate?” “EB mate” without a hint of do you know who I am. Unlike Chrissy Johns who well took the hump when I asked him the same. Not Brissy though, top man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Some Guy Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 Everyone dying from either a hideous disease or gunshot wounds always has enough about them to deliver profound advice immediately before letting go of their final breath.

Sometimes I'd give him Mayfair Lights and he'd have correct me. This is probably more for a "reasons you are a prick" thread. My mate runs a café, and his rule basically comes down to "you don't get to decide you're a regular". If you start coming in and ordering "the usual", or anything to that effect, he'll pretend not to know what you want and make you order it properly, but if you come in and are just polite and say hello to him, he'll offer "the usual" and make it for you. Just to remind people what the power dynamic at play is. And if he thinks you're a prick he'll always make you order properly. Having a "usual" at a pub is one of life's pleasures, though. A mate at work was saying, when a colleague was fretting over citizenship issues, that if you can walk into your nearest pub and get served without having said a word, they should hand you your British citizenship right there and then. Walking in to a busy pub, with queues backed up at the bar, and the barman just waving a glass in your direction and giving you a thumbs up is a lovely experience.

Tim Healys Chutney Spoon Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Using a mobile phone - it rings and is answered instantly. None of this 'wait 4-5 seconds to bounce off the satellites and connect. It then rings half a dozen times where the person answering is running around like a loon shouting 'where the fuck is my phone?' Women who wake up in the morning and have overslept, yet within 5mins they have done their hair and make up immaculately and know exactly where all their clothes are etc Does anyone actually just wander in and out of eachothers houses as much as they do in soapland? Arriving at an airport never seems to have a queue at check in and when they are buying a ticket there always happens to be one available and affordable without the character thinking 'I wonder if I can afford this....'

Perry Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 On the soaps whenever someone buys something from a shop or pub, they always seem to have the right money. Very rare you see them get change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
