Bit of good news the car issue> they told us it could be either the gearbox and could cost up to a grand to fix or a brake light issue and cost about £180 to fix and turns out it's the latter and can be fixed relatively quickly!

Staff in cafes, shops etc calling me sir

The UK Office was great for one reason only: It gave us The US Office.

Really? ...I have to disagree. The UK Office is a top ten sitcom for me.
The US office completely misses all the nuance and subtleties of the UK.

 

[Lili Marlene]

The complete UK office would fit into less than one season of the US office, comparing them is fairly dumb.

Besides, most people who dislike the UK office actually just dislike Ricky Gervais memes or their stupid ma/da/uncle/work mate in the pub telling them it was funny back in 2002 and they've never forgiven them.

Stringy banana..

Also The US Office is far superior

I hate that! I have a half-written song called "Don't call me sir", maybe some day I'll finish it and post it here. Anyone got a rhyme for "entitled"?

And they never will.

Also, some people don't find awkward funny.

Girlfriend has this thing where she recognizes that something is ironic but she is unable to process it as irony and gets all riled up. As a result she can't watch any kind of cringe comedy.

I don't like cringe comedy either - can't even watch Fawlty Towers

 

[Denny Oubidoux]

What about those comedy home videos where people smash their head on concrete trying to do back flips into the pool? I don't like those

My sarcastic response rolodex has overheated and jammed.

My back has seized up again and I'm barely able to keep my eyes open.

Have you tried acupuncture?

 

[snakybus]

I don't mind being called Sir. In fact, can you all call me Sir? Sir Snaky. Thanks.

Also, "stringy banana" is the true essence of this thread, if you'll pardon the pun.

I haven't, but I'd try anything!

 

[Lili Marlene]

I have about 2 hours to do 20 minutes of work and i'm fucking know i'm still going to be late

 

[snakybus]

As a former bad-back person and present husband of an acupuncturist, I can confirm that it does work. So does pilates.

As @snakybus says - it does work. I've got like a full bingo house of chronic pain problems, been going for three years now on and off and its been great for me. fucked my back up lifting the nephew a few weeks back and she electrocuted me a load of times and it was grand in two days.

Jesus that sounds great. Can you recommend a particular place?
