wordsfromlee Posted July 22 Posted July 22 The Coca Cola truck TV advert has been a thing for 31 years! First aired in 1995. The John Lewis Christmas ads apparently first started in 2007! Quote

westlondonmist Posted July 22 Posted July 22 The phrase picky tea (I object to describing something you eat as tea) is used by my partner but it is not the same as party food. It's more a thing after you've had a big lunch and for dinner you just throw together a mini buffet of what's in the fridge, may delve into a bag of nuggets. Quote

Cannibal Man Posted July 22 Posted July 22 (edited) 'picky tea/picky bits' is giving me whatever the word equivalent of Misophonia is. I've never heard of it before today and I never ever want to encounter it again. That image of M&S advertising picky bits day is making me want to wreck things. Edited July 22 by Cannibal Man Quote
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted July 22 Paid Members Posted July 22 (edited) In certain circles "picky bits" is probably some kind of euphemism for a venereal disease. Edited July 22 by Jazzy G Quote

I think Lancashire Hotpots should re-record their hit Chippy Tea with new lyrics. Quote
Chili Posted July 23 Posted July 23 Picky Bits as a phrase gives me what the youth (until like 2 mins ago when some new phrase appears) call the ick. I've never heard the term. I've heard use of finger food or cold cuts, but never seen it called that. Poorly is just a normal word to me. Quote
