‘spoons don’t have a particularly clever business model, they can just afford to buy property. Every tennant’s dream is to own a free house, they just can’t afford to wheras Tesco/’spoons can.

“freelance journalist / currently writing a book about political gossip / here to have a good time”

Well at least two of those things are a lie as she’s quite clearly an unemployed mood-hoover.

Just a bump as I really did find this amusing.

They completely renovated it, must have spent a fortune, and now its absolutely…

…stark, cold, soulless and much the same as all the ‘spoons I’ve seen. Fair enough if veneer and chintz is your (one’s) thing, that doesn’t bother me but when ‘spoons are selling beer cheaper than actual pubs can buy it, we have a problem. Unless you think monopolies are a good thing?

Make sure you read the reddit comment at the end, I laughed out loud!

Superb!
Some proper funnies.

Ha ha, okay, maybe in your head it is.

My head must be even bigger than I previously thought because that’s exactly where I’m sat. 🙂

Would you buy an Audi from her?

Rather that than a Mercedes. ;)

What is the “Deal” that has been nigociated

Oh joy, another Brexit thread.
I hope you get herpes for Christmas you racist.

Fair enough, I’ve long since had you down as a bawbag.

I’m afraid you’re going to have to speak English if we are to continue this conversation. :)

It’s ridiculous that alcohol is being served at 9.00am which is presumably down to local licensing laws giving permission.

There was a massive list of constraints given to allow ‘spoons to open in my home town.
All of them ignored.
I can only imagine money changed hands.

I like the fake book cases in my local ‘spoons, adds an authentic charm.

they’re just pubs.

A pub is a public house, someone’s home where you are invited in to enjoy a drink and maybe a bite to eat perhaps around the fireplace or other cosy surroundings.

‘spoons are like a tesco with everything taken out except the cafe and booze aisle.

Pubs they are not.

(FME, et cetera, visited as few as possible)

Having never ventured inside a Wetherspoon

For the love of god, maintain your chastity woman!!!

If you want to replicate the experience without having to sully your soul by actually entering a real ‘spoons, simply buy whatever tins are on offer at your local mini-mart and drink them sitting in the nearest A+E.
The similarity in atmosphere is uncanny.

Meh, their eggs Benedict is decent.

I’m happy that you enjoy it.

I’m also happily filing your username under “people who’s opinion on food I can discount from here to eternity”. :)

It clearly is.
Tenacious D could have provided Sasquatch as an alternative.

Apeman I never would have got as it is clearly Bigfoot, didn’t like that one either. The misspelt Hellrazor was also an irritation. **** you Tupac!

I don’t get Opposites Attract – how does that work out?

The cartoon cat featured in the video, which is a bit of a shit clue TBH.

One week.

I’m not sure why people feel like they can look down their noses at certain ‘spoons patrons when they are patrons themselves.
You’re all ‘spoon-lickers and you’re all in there for the same reason.

I cannot express just exactly how much I detest them, they are the antithesis of the traditional British pub.

Convenient as a public toilet though, I’ll give them that.

Given up at 97.

A monster truck, preferably Grave Digger.
Working quote buttons.
People ceasing to mention Brexit on every thread. I wish you all herpes.

Listed in order of descending likelihood.

Merry Christmas.

Was it not obvious from the pics?

What site out of interest? You’ve just linked back to STW.

I struggle to believe the owners can’t replicate it

Maybe they’re all sat around sharing Fun Sponge’s ipad.

Hmm, that doesn’t work.

U can’t touch this

C+P that.

Try googling the song title and then C+Ping it in.

With apostrophe, either spelling of “you”.

The invisible child

Dammit, thought I had it with invisible touch.

Didn’t notice it before, but the confectionery next to the babe.

Black bird, pinhead, stones/pebbles, chap on the heavenly staircase, all pissing me off!

No one else got the man with pink yet?!!! to be fair its not a great likeness….

First one I got.
On 86 using google to get the song titles correct.

It exists therefore you are going to come across it.

NEXT!

Next what, victim or perversion?

FF user here, but never use the classifieds.
Using this site without ABP is like having unprotected sex with a prostitute.

More often than not though I’m the last man standing so not an issue.

And he’s done it again!

That’s an awesome call jamesy01.

Frequently, I have deep seated psychological issues with saying goodbye.

You are all wrong. The Ulster Fry is the correct answer

That’s just a full English but you seem to have swapped delicious fried bread with an inferior substitute and some left over mashed potato.

And a mug of Thompson’s tea

From the world famous plantations of Enniskillen, no doubt?

I do the same and just buy fistfuls of “disposable” ear buds from Poundland.
Might last a day, might last a couple of months. Use them with a cheap mp3 player. Not really fussed about sound quality, just need something to drown out the voices/thoughts.

Toast, buttered
Beans, a must have.

Neither are fried so can do one.
Mind you, you rate Carluccios so we know not to take you seriously.
What’s next? Little Chef Olympic Breakfast?🤣
