Someone told me recently (a primary teacher) that there was a wee boy called Hashtag. It was actually spelled '#' but the school records had to just spell it 'Hashtag' for the management system to be able to use it for registers and records etc.. I can also just imagine the amount of 'Khalisies' and 'Catnisses' cutting about schemes barefoot in the coming years too!

My wife just started some management type gig at the Government, not long in showed me an email that went: The CLP needs to support the ALR for the DIP. I told her to respond WTF? GTF But she didn't. English, motherfuckers! Do you speak it?!

You can't say (or at least attempt to say) the word 'echelon' on this forum don't you know...

Thing is though the Already ridiculous 'share' of prize money would play into the hands of whoever finishes 2nd. I don't have the exact figures but the prize money had very inconsistent increments designed clearly to give 1st and 2nd (Rangera and Celtic) a big payout to supplement their big spending. Something like: 1st: 1.3 million 2nd: 1.1 million 3rd: 500k 4th:430k and down in roughly 70 k increments, completely unfair but would play into the handa of whoever fininshed 2nd on a rangerless league. Or we will see the 3rd div champions suspiciouslly be awarded 1million....

Quality thread so far with particular mentions to the boring girls living every minute of their chronic lifes on FB (but they secretly like their chronicness - makes them feel all 'Carrie Bradshaw' or Rachael Green) , old firm spunk-rags who have never been to games ending every post in acronyms like WATP, IJCGE, and of course - even educated adults putting random 'h's after the first letter of words!! BUT THE MOST ANNOYING FB PATTER EVER IS!!!........................... ..............people telling you about ther 'TRAINING!'. WHAT!!?? No matter the physical activity punters on FB call it TRAINING!! You are a fat munter from Easterhouse that goes to spin with her maw once a fortnight- you are NOT TRAINING!!! You are a pseudo-anorexic accountant called Andrew who plays fives with his work on a Tuesday - you are NOT TRAINING Gets on ma nips - unless you are actually in a sports team, or are going to the Olympics you are NOT TRAINING!!!

Horrible Garage. I once walked in to see about buying a car CASH. (well not actual cash but money from my savings - but I was not needing finance) It was the summer and we had been playing 5s in the morning - I had 3/4s on and an Argentina top. The Salesmen literally just looked at me and went about the rest of their day. I was quite young and not dressed to impress - clearly they never thought that I was better paid than them on a good week!! I must have stood at the front for 5 good minutes. I even started opening car doors myself and still nothing!! What a way to treat people!! I buy my cars from Parks now - a proper company.

100% spot on. There is nothing better than standing in the bookies at half 2 on a Saturday to see some wee bam next to you say to his mate 'Laldy man, 2 fae each sexshun is 2 and half grand back furra fiver - um actual daen that. Darlington will defo beat Licoln eh?' You won't see him back in the shop at half 5. And my tip is to simply make sure you walk back into the bookies to collect SOMETHING as much as possible. Bookies hate opening their tills for anything other than firing wee dafties' £20 notes in to it. Use PERMS - always to collect something. Bookies must be amazed the amount of people will put a treble on for big money and not cover the 3 doubles. To be honest If they all come up yer three doubles isn't that much less than the treble - and if you small stake the treble too it is nearly the same.
