Thank you for this reply. It was able to effectively dovetail into point I was making. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herman Hessian Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 (edited) can anyone think of a descriptive word to explain the very neat and quite deliberate way in which the tail feathers of a dove are seamlessly joined to the arse-end of same dove ?

Cats have tails and so do monkeys. Have I seen anything similar on a dove? Can't say I have. Maybe I am missing something. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnthebaptistist Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Yes, birds do have tails. If they didn't then flight would be a very messy affair for them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alert Mongoose Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 The high heidyins at work have coined the phrase 'The love hour'. I assumed this was a joke but apparently relates to the extra unpaid hour you should be happy to work due to your admiration for the company. He actually managed to say it with a straight face - utterly astonishing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never understood why they picked the dove for that expression - they've got pretty regular tails as birds go. Could just as easy be sparrow or gulltail. Or indeed rough-faced shag tail, which would get my vote. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Lambies Doos Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 A game I sometimes like to play is Chinese polysyllabics - use an obscure word and see how long it takes for one of the big bosses to parrot it back. A while back I called a task Sisyphean in nature during a meeting - within a couple of weeks it was the buzzword du jour amongst the higher echelons of management which was all the funnier because I'd told folk up front I was going to get them using it.I used the term surfeit on a presentation recently. That word keeps cropping up in speak and emails now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raidernation Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Not quite the same, but there’s a certain “type” of AA member that attend meetings I also attend that seem determined to use “big words” (and some hilarious derivatives).Today I heard “vexatious” several times as well as “consciousnessly” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Americans are the worst at my work. Use words like that all the time. You then ask them whats the capital of France, and their fucking clueless. Compensation mechanism imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
