    Increasingly we’re seeing forum posts containing a quote from an earlier post with the word ‘this’ after it. It’s bloody annoying. Please stop it. I know what it means but it’s just a wee bit shite.

    Also, the use of the word ‘that’ by the no-doubt hip and trendy. For example, ‘The embarrassing feeling you get when you’ve farted in a lift and someone else gets in. That.’

    And I’m not even going to get started on people asking ‘can I get…’ in shops and stuff.

    their will always be tho’se who just dont care how there spoken or written words make them look dim in the eyes of they’re friends/ colleagues / associates. And stuff.

    On the other hand “and stuff” really gets my goat!

    That – and stuff. Covers it all. 😉

    Are we still allowed “that” as a prefix when referring to major capitals (ie: “that London“) or is that off the menu as well?

    Bit worried about losing that one…it would be like saying “Vienna” without saying “Ahhh…Vienna” afterwards….
