[#1874263]

Friends over from Liverpool for a weekend in Harrogate. One guy has a new girlfriend and she asked...

Do I need a plug adaptor for my hair straighteners.

🙂

Stupidestest thing heard this weekend

For the squadron (on manoeuvres in Wales), it was the following;

"Yes, ten more pints and a whisky each"

Riding with a hangover. Never good.

That was a stupid thing to say.
Electricity? In Yorkshire? On a weekend?

whilst at the dentist ( brother in law ) , my wife picks up the box of latex gloves and asks him " if you're left handed, do you get boxes of gloves for right handed people? "

i nearly had my cheek drilled through with laughing.

Stupidestest thing heard this weekend

the squadron (on manoeuvres in Wales),

You're not fighter pilots, or SAS teams ("squadron")

You're not involved in military operations ("manoeuvres")

You're riding bicyles in carefully-controlled civilian conditions

Women may say daft things, but some blokes are just to$$ers

agreed - if it was against himself for a grossly-inflated sense of self importance, rather than some dim woman

If that's what you believe, the logical consequence is not to post.

By posting, you clearly think that there is more to say.

So reply - or get a life, civilian

I would like to hope so, but I am sure fatal-drop has run out of pointless arguments to try to start.

Anyway, I wasn't laughing at her stupidity due to her sex, rather because she is from Liverpool.

Anyone else still trying to work out whether fatal_drop is a big pi$$ artist or being serious...?

I like the cut of their jib, whoever they are. I mean, describing one's riding excursions with military analogies is a bit childish; wouldn't you say? Perhaps this bloke's outings are a little more regimented and bomb/bullet-filled than mine, but, as f-d points out, most people's rides are the antithesis of military "manoeuvers". It's just a ridiculous analogy that somebody ridiculed, and they did so in the context of a thread about stupid things that people say.

Well, it could have been genuine adventurous training. I think the Army still gets a bit of budget for things like that.

Alternatively, CFH could be hanging round with the Red Arrows and giving them a new way of practicing their [s]manouvers[/s] [s]manoeuvres[/s] stunts that saves you, the tax payer, the cost of running those nice Hawk jets for a couple of hours.

How to be a Walter on-line:

1) Read a few Andy McNab books.
2) Do a very short stint in the TA
3) Read some other SAS novels.
4) Spend hours looking for forum "mistakes" that you can correct using your knowledge and constant obvious "hints" that you are ex Special Forces.
5) Turn off your PC at 10pm when Mummy tells you it's bed time.

I liked CF's turn of phrase, it was inkeeping with his Captain moniker. Anyway is it really something that needs to be comment on in such a nasty way. Anyway fatal drop brings in his own army speak with "lack of combat experience"...

Carry on it's all funny!

Ah, the female mind. See how she was focusing on the most important part of her weekend....Doing her hair.

It really is Mars and Venus.

Whereas in reality he's most probably a shy, insecure civil servant who likes to pretend he's on 'manoeuvres' at the weekend to make up for things. Can't see any harm in it really, unless he does a funny one and goes beserk with a spud gun in a cake shop in Chipping Sodbury.

He is reasonably intelligent it seems, and I was looking forward to him taking on fatal drop, but alas it seems not to be.

Oh whell.

An ironic dig, perhaps?

Nope, he's fourth in the line. The one with the face blurred out to protect his identity.

Methinks CFH was using irony in the first place.

Could you have a Squadron of Bastards? I think you could. I've decided it shall be so.

It's like road rage, easy to pour your invective over someone when you are behind the windscreen/computerscreen..

isn't there a group of animals called a squadron, is it geese or something?

Anyway, call it what you want, its riding bikes with your mates. Some people call it a blast, a razz, a quick loop, a training ride, a session, adventure, trip, a ride... whatever. I quite like manoeuvres, sounds like more fun.

No, I'm pretty sure that's actually a 'Bastard of Geese'.

It is possible I may be wrong.

See, even the army wear helmets, and they're padded up...That does it for me, I'm never riding a bike without armour from now on...

Wonders if a coil of rope is really necessary....
