Why do women in comedy evoke such hatred in men?

Seems like too many are still stuck with the mindset that “women just aren’t (meant to be) funny!”

Love it.
Not usually my thing but really enjoy the lightness of touch and joyful scripting.

Maybe too many women being funny for some men to allow themselves to enjoy it?

Cheers beej!

Waah! Make it work. What am I doing wrong?

This

Apparently driving my red Seat makes me a parking God – which is obviously correct. 🙂

We inherited one with the house we bought.

Personally, I can’t see the point. Yes, it takes less shampoo to get a lather and I’m sure I’ll be buying 0.563 less washing machines and dishwashers in my lifetime, but that’s about it for me.

The missus likes it though 🙄

Fadda – as long as that NEVER procludes someone else from parking then yes, agreed.

I find it hilarious that the audis in the pictures were double spaced parked rather than badly…. How often have you been hit by other morons in car parks?

Meaning it’s ok to be selfish to save your car from possible scratches?

Love a bit o’ variety in language.

To be annoyed by someone rockin up and arksin for a borrow of my pen would be odd.

Language rox!

I haven’t seen these notes but the problem I’ve had in the past is finding “the radiator that heats up first”.
Is there a way of finding out that is better than the guesswork of running round house and feeling the rads?

Maybe I need to run faster?

nom, nom – a phrase that makes normally intelligent people sound like chavs.

Chavs – a term used by people who think they’re intelligent that makes them sound like bellends.

Yes, that’s what most people forget when they deride kids these days for being sat in front of their PS3 etc.

If I’d have had that option, I probably wouldn’t have left the house either.

Ditto poonprice.

Sky coverage is great. Particularly Brundle.
Like the way him and Crofty work together in the commentary box.

“Old people upset about new turn in the evolution of their language shocka!”

Things change, get me?

With the low-rent option of gammon you only qualify for HJ not BJ

Cavity wall insulation has vastly improved the warmth of both the houses we’ve had it done to.

No condensation or damp problems either.

Good! I thought it was only me who was still that childish 🙂

Nailing the apex of a corner whilst walking.

FWIW I’ve never said I’m not watching it again.
I watch it for the cars, not the “spontaneous” banter.

I record it and fast forward through most of the studio bits.

Love cars, love watching programmes with cars in, hate most of TG non-car bits.

Can I still watch it now? Can I disagree with some people on here and express that difference of opinion?
Or is TG some sort of Holy Cow?

They’re a bit light on racial stereotyping too these days. I imagine some folk miss that.

I think you have it there DD.

I was wondering what the usual TG loverz were missing with their recent “it’s a bit tired now” posts.
They must be missing the laddish “edginess” where they mock the weak, patronise the poor and carefully insult foreigners. Cheeky scamps that they are!

Border Terrier – Nope
iPad – Yep – 3 (!) in our house, and apple tv, no macs though
Audi – nope
Orange 5 – nope
Guardian – nope
Niche Razor – nope
Coffee Machine – yep

Moderate (2 years worth) log pile

Stoner, do you realise you are a lottery winner in the eyes of us other wood covetting geezers? 😉

Lucky, lucky you!

*goes off full of envy to spilt logs from rapidly diminishing log pile*

I’m out. It’s been fun.
Byeeeeee.

Ooh he did another sneer as I was posting!

maybe you need some self reflection to see why it irks you so? xx

Loving tazzymtb’s patronising posts.
See him sneer as he posts another one.

We know you’re crying inside and we hope you feel happier soon. Xx.

Don’t forget to get your jewellery from Ratners…. Oh no, wait a minute….
😉

That’s so true. Ask any of the recent Jimmy Savile-gate celebs. They more than welcome the press.
And Findus. And Tesco.
And Ratners.
And etc…..

I’m as light as a feather. Had a sooper-dooper day.

The weight of your faux-coolness must be a burden though. 😀

If this was a customer service “joke” from BT or Sky or Virgin or whoever, you’d be incensed.
But because it’s from a company who you think makes you look young and cool, you can’t wait to kiss their arses.

Pitiful hypocrisy.

Maybe I just respond to a more… sophisticated type of humour.

Oh dear. [cough] pompous buffoon [/cough]

Grum – I was taking the piss with the MacIntyre comment. Oh well….

Nope. Nice try at Edinburgh. But no.

Immature and they now know it, hence the back-peddling.

Silly boys caught out being silly.

If you wanna shout that you’re like waaaay cool cos you “get it” then go ahead.
Make me smirk in the same way as when I see you track-standing at traffic lights. No, no, you DO look awesome.

AFAIK, the first well known journo to identify the increasing usage of the word “chav” as the beginning of the new demonisation of the workjng classes. As such, I’d imagine a lot of the STW demographic would find her a bit hard going. Which is not a bad thing.

This.

Then you are their market. Good for you and them.

It’s funny and it’s generated three pages of discussion (and counting). Looks like a win for Surly in my book.

Interest and (generally negative) opinion about childish behaviour from a bike company doesn’t usually equate to a win in sales figures.

Bad publicity is bad. Not good. Don’t believe the cliche.

You’re allowed to like the company and bikes, but their website reeks of pretension.
On the “Information Hole” tab: “Spews”?

Exactly.

Loving the Cointreau here too.
Perfect evening tipple to warm your body and soothe your mind.

Sublime.

Beans can have a place, but use a sausage as a breakwater, if I want to mix it with the egg I want it to be my decision.

The best fried breakfast I ever had was at Gary Willmots wedding:

Bacon, smoked
Sausage
Egg
Tomato
Field Mushroom
Fried slice
Black pudding
Toast

Classic Partridge. Textbook.
Jurassic Park!

Reminds me of sugaRAPE from Nathan Barley.

Idiots.
