Do you give Easter eggs in February. Fast for Ramadan in November? Celebrate Hanukkah in June? Get pissed and do the tree on Christmas EVE - a real one - that's what used to happen and probably still does with posh folk. Take it down the morning after Twelfth Night. I bet you wear brown shoes in the city. Electric Blue suit too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because bastard supermarkets have selection boxes and decoration tat in their shitholes in September - Christmas starts at midnight. It's like telly size ratio peasantry can be also found by earlyness of Christmas decorations (Unless someone's poorly).

Youri McAnespie Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 Whitehouse and Mortimer seemed a bit phony t'other night. But they pulled it back in the last ten minutes. I also watched sommat that was almost parody with Vic Reeves in it - but I was pissed so can't recall the circumstances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I knew what frontal lobes did I may agree. I doubt it though. I’d say percentage-wise, there are more unaffected than there are affected.

I find it interesting that you say that, as I think that not all injuries and illnesses can be seen. Some people mask symptoms. Some people self medicate to alleviate symptoms. Some people deny they’ve got symptoms. Etc …and of course there are some people who are unaffected from the trauma they’ve experienced.

She was about eight - she's probably about 68 now. Wasn't it the BBC? I can remember them playing 'God Save The Queen' (the anthem not the Sex Pistols' song) before they shut down for the night and stuck a white dot on.

I just don’t let historical events affect my well-being. Even now, as a limousine driver for a local funeral parlour, my usual attitude is to be solemn and not show emotion; after all, it’s their grief, not mine. That said, I have occasionally wept whilst driving. One such occasion was the funeral of a former Westhoughton cricketer. Picked family up and drove them to Howe Bridge Crematorium. Every pub had dozens of folk outside toasting the deceased. That was fine. I’ve seen it lots of times. The killer was turning into Leigh Road and there being a few dozen cricketers, each with their bats held aloft in salutation. I got quite emotional. There’s no fucker weeps like I can at stuff on telly. I can fucking cry at Emmerdale, for fuck’s sake! On the occasions we managed to watch a film on nights at work I’d go and brew up at the sad bits. So there you go, maybe I have got decent and functioning frontal lobes but they are working for the moment, not the past. Are you a psychiatrist? How much do I owe for this consultation?

I think Xmas "specials" are often poor. They often seem like they reach a point wheere they say "Oh shit, we've an extended episode to make and we've done got any material left." The Royle Family's last few were dreadful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youri McAnespie Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 What about Morecambe and Wise when Angela Rippon got her tits out and they did a sex scene in their bed - with Eric's pipe involved? When Whitehouse did karaoke unironically - I turned over. They showed an hour long Christmas special Dad's Army and that was abysmal. Anyway fuck it - the farce is over with for another year. Except for bloody New Year. Many times I've gone to bed at 10pm pissed up and curmudgeonly - then the fireworks start. New Year is by a long chalk the shittest two days of the year.
