And (and never start a sentance with AND!)you ave to say somthing, but yer bored to tears with all the PC, scripted from "The Office" bolloks being expressed? What dya do? I find this usefull! :o Think of a line out of one of ya favourit comedy programs and try an fit it into yer verbal utterances! :o The number of times Blackadder lines have been brought up in serious "Multi disciplinary Team" meetings is a joy I will carry to the grave! See how many you can get in before someone twigs! :D

Hahahaha, I like to go into stuffy meetings looking ridiculous in some way, either with an absurd hairstyle or horrible makeup, fuschia eye shadow and lipstick for example. People look at you funny but daren't say anything in case you meant to look like that and take offense :D It is a good way to 'diss' your boss.

Can't remember when it was, but not that long ago........

The England Football team had a challenge amongst themselves to get as many song titles into the post-match interviews as possible.

Made for some bemused commentators :rolleyes:

Cheers,
