Stuff you've thought of but it's too dull for conversation

Why is it the guys who often boast the most about being "providers" who appear to complain the most about women being "gold diggers"?

I know some cricketers are superstitious, but why do they have this rancid habit of not washing their caps? 🤢😅

I've just seen a load of Christmas food in the supermarket. In August.

I'm I the only one that gets angry about this. I like Christmas but this sort of thing will make me sick of it before it gets here.

That will be for the very old folk who are buying selection boxes for their grandchildren, lest they run out early😄 ...in a similar sense to the tendency never to buy green bananas.

It's far too bloody early, plus it won't be the same Christmas as usual for a lot of people. It's just rubbing their noses in it.

*Our noses.

But they are not just any musical biscuit tins are they FF? 

Maybe they are to drown out the sound of your whinging! 😉

I'm not sure how familiar with Paw Patrol you are. This is Chase. My nephew is confused as I just shouted Chase Out! at him.

Ha! Chuckled at that.

What is the cut off age/IQ whereby you put your mobile phone on loudspeaker then hold the phone horizontally with the microphone at your mouth and speaker pointing away from you so you can't hear it? I mean it is moronic at a level that I can't comprehend but I see it every day.

I've never got that either.

The guitar work in Good Times by Chic make me feel nonplussed.

Yes, I know, Nile Rodgers and all that...

Only became decent when the Sugerhull Gang sampled it for Rappers Delight.

All about the bassssss. The bass player (forgotten his name) had an interesting technique, using his thumb as a pick.  The calluses must have been monumental.

[The Raptor 1,206]

Bernard Edwards. 

That does sound a weird technique

Happy talk like a pirate day ye scallywags! Arrrrrrgh!

I think we’ve found the new Daniel Craig.

Judging the litter on the way to work, someone went out for a nighttime country lane drive, parked in a lay-by, maybe with his bird, and ate an orange. 🤨

Has anyone else had trouble using the messageboard on their iPhone lately? Trying to open threads I now have to press twice instead of once. It doesn’t happen on any other sites. First world problems I know but quite annoying 😡

I went to this in Colchester and is great. Brilliant art and history of empire in one.Well worth popping into see.

 

[The Raptor 1,206]

I saw 'cookies and leather' deodorant earlier. Why would people want to smell like that? Weird.

Cookies are for eating and leather is for cows!

I did a run in a new pair of shoes, felt great at the time, did 10k and ten weeks later I’ve lost both my big toe nails! Has anyone else lost both big toe nails at the same time?

I physically winced when I read that.

Not painful but weird, as I’ve not lost a nail in years and the runners were really comfortable! I have a photo but it’s horrid! 😂 Just wondering if anyone else had the same happen?

Lynx? I’ve used it before, it doesn’t actually smell of cookies and leather.
