    @nostrildamus ...i want to hear that story now

    To cut a long story short, there are very educated Americans out there that don't realize there exists different spelling in the UK to America (let alone the colonies).

    Ummm....umm...realise? 😉😁

    I often find that people struggle to know/understand the word "triple". It's quite eye opening.

    Like when asking for a "couple" of things.

    "How many?"

    Two!!! You fucking moran

    All you pricks fucking up the number cadence probably refer to the right hand lane of a multi lane road as the 'inside lane'. There is just no helping some people.

    Fluffybunnies. Everyone knows the correct term is actually "Nearside Lane"

    @crazy-horse I refer to it as "oncoming traffic" usually, although occasionally "the opposition".

    I think this thread has revealed there are a considerable amount of random kiwis.

    As I pointed out above you can write realize in the UK. Progress. The grumpy kind of progress.

    Motorcyclists call them "car drivers".

    Indeed.
    Couple: two objects who are married or otherwise closely associated romantically or sexually.

    @victor-meldrew I've seen the movies, just drop a gear and twist your wrist and you can wheelie over them.

    @kiwiwomble said in Grumpy Old Man:

    im going to start giving a trigger warning before i give out my number from now on, just to be safe 😉

    edit: have to add i love how no one can argue there needs to be some cadence to how you give your number...but lets still all have a friendly pile on about HOW its done 😹

    Chunking. It's a memory enhancement technique but most people do it unconsciously to some extent when faced with strings of numbers. If you give it rhythm you actually hear the numbers in your head and it assists recall. Except for @bones , he just starts dancing inappropriately.
