wolfy 12 Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 That's ok Andy, I once phoned directory enquiries and the woman said, what address please and like a right turnip I gave her my address. I thought she was asking what address I was calling from. It was only when my wife went into fits of laughter that I realised she wanted the address from which I wanted the phone number from.

ajax_andy 0 Posted August 29, 2012 Author Share Posted August 29, 2012 I also hate it when you see someone you know and you say "Hi, how are you", but they say the same thing at exactly the same time... and then there's a really uncomfortable pause where you have a mexican stand off not wanting to say anything in case they speak at the same time again. Happened to me and my neighbour the other day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolfy 12 Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I hate it when I get into a taxi and it's all quiet as you set off, yet I'm telling myself, " do not ask the question, do not ask the question" which lasts for all of 10 seconds, then I pipe up. " have you been busy mate?" CRINGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happened to me and my neighbour the other day Always get moments of being uncomfortable with what I call an 'alreet' person, usually a neighbour or distant friend of friend who you don't know really but you always say 'alreet' to when you see them. Where it becomes uncomfortable is if you see them, say 'alreet', and then see them 5 minutes later in the shop or further down the road. What are the rules? You can't just say 'alreet' again can you? I always end up saying something shite under pressure, like 'looks like it's going piss down later?' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I normally just give a sheepish smile and a slight nod of the head in those situations... but yeah I know exactly what you mean lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfy 12 Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 It's like when you go outside for a smoke at the pub and there's one or two out...I say, " seems a canny night like" and someone will say, " aye it's mild enough isn't it" and I'll say, " aye" This only happens about every frigging time I go out, unless I'm going outside with a mate for a smoke and we are carrying on a conversation. It's the same as when you walk past neighbours houses and they're out in the garden, they say,"hiya Davy, you alright" and I'll say, "aye, canny, are you"...they will say, " aye" and then, I, or they will say, mind it's a canny/ miserable/hot/cold day isn't it" lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
