Apologies for third answer
but I keep remembering more gems.

I went to see Miss Saigon with my then-girlfriend, who was American. Talking about it after, she said she was surprised at the ending, because she "thought we won the Vietnam war"...

Sid - Re: The Fat Blind Whistler
Is this the same one that I've seen in Tamworth and Burton? Or is the Midlands a hotbed of blind-whistling?

» I just don't get it

Are we allowed more than one?
1. People who come up to you in the street/phone you and try to sell you stuff. Surely if you wanted to buy something, you'd go into a shop and look for it, not the other way round?

2. Fashion - you're paying a lot of money to wear what someone else tells you to, and look the same as everyone else, yet this is supposed to be a GOOD thing?

3. People who pay £7 to NOT watch a film, and instead sit in the dark for two hours talking loudly, throwing stuff and playing with their phone.

4. Justin Timberlake.

Apologies for length (mine, not Justin Timberlake's).

Just remembered another one
Chav 1: "I needs to lose some weight innit, I fink I should go on a diet."

Chav 2: "Naaaah mate, you needs to go fer a sauna, innit. 'Cos you sweat all the fat out, 'cos that's what sweat is innit, like melted fat."

Apparently Chav 2 was doing some kind of Sports Science GNVQ. Nice to see it paid off...

Cabbie who picked me up from work:
"Is that Return Of The King any good?" (I'm a projectionist)

Me: "I haven't seen it yet, but it's been sold out nearly every showing"

Cabbie: "If it's that popular, they'll probably make a fourth one"

Me: "...well there's only three books. They could make a film of The Hobbit though..."

Cabbie: "It's based on a BOOK, is it?!"
