clearly they won't want to effect their largest European market for their jam jars, looks like the old plaster is twitching! Will the Frau get overridden by her business bosses?

Eddie, it's Sarfend :-D

And definitely cock-eyed lol

[ludwig]

Until the prohibition of rhyming slang goes into the Site Rules along with the use of profanities, I don't see the issue.

...and it's Saaaaafend!

Th Ed has inherited a drum that has been beaten to death and ignored for ages.

Are Volkswagen afraid of being Polo 3T?

[Togo]

Strange how 3T elicits such approbation for a bit of character, but other posters, one in particular, have built an identity by posting mangled syntax and deliberate typos without comment at all from the most vociferous complainers.

[ToraToraTora]

that's a fear certainly Togo

[Old_Geezer]

One is assumed not to be able to help it, the other clearly does it for the reaction.

What the f are you on about Mamya? please stop it with the ridculous analogies. We don't understand what you mean.

[Mamyalynne]

I'm on medication you know.x

[Jackdaw33]

I don't understand the angst here. I for one look forward to his posts as he makes up the slang on the hoof and I enjoy trying to decipher it. As many of the prim set on here say, if you don't like it, don't read it.

[ludwig]

We all are Mamya. It's the only way we can keep coming back to AB.

[Peter Pedant]

oh god I thought it was
twist - twisty-twee - knee
plaster - old master
twitching - batching

sooooo - "my knee is playing up somethin dreadful and Mrs Merkel is up to the same wiv sum german industrialists - in fact they are all at it!"
can't quite place 'old master'
( a bit like my Latin translations)

[Peter Pedant]

// if you don't like it, don't read it.//

can't read it more like

and of course - you dont know if you like it or not BEFORE you read it (nice to see Logic left at the door when you come into AB)

presumably we are not in the category of
I'm not gonna read it because I know its gonna be crip !
after all we all read Donald Trumps tweets ! ter daah !

[ToraToraTora]

Cheers JD me old China, no idea why they get so het up. Most of them know it anyway they just like to bellyache.

[ludwig]

Anyway, there's more than one person on here writing undecipherable nonsense. It's unfair to single any individual out for criticism. I'll leave it at that.
