The Room 101 thread - for things you hate or just having a bloody good moan
Re: The Room 101 thread - for things you hate or just having a bloody good moan
I had something like that a few weeks ago, along with most of the people I work with.

Mainly an American thing, but when people say "a couple something" rather than "a couple OF something". e.g. "I'll be out of town for a couple days". It bugs me almost as much as "I could care less".

Between tedium and fright
Such is the song of the nether world
The hissing of rats
And the jarring chants of angels

I'm okay with some of them, as long as people don't start saying 'erbs instead of herbs.

I've never heard an American say that, and I've known quite a few in my life.

Just put your hand down your trousers. They won't be long in looking elsewhere for a seat.
