A roadie mate of mine never has a drink, he 'takes on board some fluid'
DING-DING-DING-DING
I knew there was something that really bugged me and that's the one! Bollocks of the highest order unless the 'fluid' was somehow injected by a robot directly up your hoop into your stomach. Otherwise it's a drink.
I feel bad. Feel free to use the term 'builders tea' with no shame.
For me a cuppa tea needs no further description, but I am a simple man.
Wine snobbery also offends my simple tastes. Sorry.

How long has "gnarly" had an 'e' in it?

I bet he takes on fluid using a bidon, instead of a bottle.

The phrase which really gets me that I am hearing a fair amount at the moment (although it may be somewhat industry specific) is "throw up all over it"
as in "...if I put that proposal to them they will just throw up all over it".
Revolting phraseology used by egotistical city boys thinking it makes them sound heavyweight.
"Roadmap"Unless referring to a map with roads on it.
Exactly. Just say "plan". Which is French for street map.

Revolting indeed. Reminds me of the very cute ex-ballerina on First Dates who kept saying "sh*t the bed!" Quite put me off my stroke.
[quote=centralscrutinizer ]Putting "ists" on the end of words where it doesn't belong e.g dog walkerists.
Too right. You can't just put "ists" on the end, you have to contract as well. The correct term is doggists (note, definitely [b]not[/b] doggerists)
In work yesterday, I offered to make the brews (yes, a rare occasion). 2 x coffees 1 x tea. So no need for a teapot, just throw a bag in the mug...colleague says " ah, so you are making a tramps brew" !!! Brilliant!! 😀
I'd imagine that the phrase. 'It's a good deal.' Directed at doctors by Jeremy [s]C*nt[/s] Hunt regarding his proposed pay changes, is peeing a few people off right now. It is me and I'm not a Dr.
What is he? A used car salesman.

I frequently refer to dog walkerists as doggers. As that is what they are.
Black tea = tea without milk.
White tea = poncy tea, like green tea but not.
Builder's tea = black tea with milk.

What you want me to see Tom and shoot him? Piss off.

I'm with thebees on builders tea. It's a new middle-class term that grates on me.
It is new, but it's all the herbal girlie tea that has forced us to have a word which means (to me) really strong tea with not much milk and a high likelihood of sugar.
Little bags or muslin parcels on strings have forced us to these desperate measures...

You missed one.....
A friend of mine, an old India hand of a RE officer who is so unreconstructed that he has two dogs, Friday and Crusoe, has another tea caddy. It is labelled "Lesbian tea" and contains anything of the herbal infusion format of tea.
He has three daughters, and I had a narrow escape from marrying in to the family! Still friends, though....
Julie Andrews, Whoopi Goldberg, Mother Teresa and NATO. Only ways of describing Tea.
Politicians banging on about "hard working families". Like they actually give a shit.
"A member of the public" doesn't annoy me as such but always feels like a very clumsy expression.
At a bar with an espresso machine there should only be a choice of 1) espresso/cafe/cafe solo.
2) Machiato/cortado/noisette
3) Capuccino
4) cafe au lait/con leche
But they can't offer a caffe latte ?
Why can we order coffee with hot milk in French or Spanish, but not in Italian ?
"Latte" is just a shortened version (and the same drink) as the Italian "Caffe Latte"
Other than the fact I don't really like them, I can't see any issue with the name at all.
Boils my piss is a ****ty phrase of the highest order.
Have we had that yet?
