Whatever happened

[tonyidle]

The amount of kids who say " keep the change" when buying something that requires them accepting low denomination coins , usually to the value of around 10 to 20 pence.
Bizarre .

Or shrapnel as they're otherwise known.

I’m sure your parents, and older generations all thought the same of you lot when you were young.

They did more than think.
They followed up on our lack of manners with either a scalding mouthful or a clip around the ear.

Didn’t suzi dent of countdown do a book about how words etc evolve, what was slang etc becomes part of the language etc.

Whatever happened to "Please may i have" when ordering something. It's would appear only us fossils use it now. These baby's say, "Can i get"??? what!!!!!
So what's your irritation when you here young un's (apart from the obvious effing and blinding).

That's a very good question

Almost forgot this one. AWESOME !. The same restaurant referred to in my previous post. Ordered a couple of items from the menu. “ Awesome choice “ said the waitress. No it isn’t. Awesome would be if I had ordered the stuff whilst riding a unicycle and simultaneously juggling a few chainsaws and simultaneously balancing a glass of beer on my nose and swapping my eyeballs from one socket to the other.

Don't know if anyone has seen this action done by teenagers and some in their early 20s, but must have heard the type of music , often played loud in cars, and that is this so- called " gangster rap" music with a type of hand gesture often run slowly up the side of their face ,with the thumb pointing upward and the next two fingers at 90 degress, as if to emulate the movement of a gun.
Scary, quite scary.
The music alone , if thats what it is,is intimidating enough.
Only in my opinion though, thanks.

When taking to two or more people the word "you" suddenly acquires an "s" at the end to become "yous two". Christ don't they teach grammar at school anymore?......

I regularly do that whilst riding my unicycle and people just accuse me if showing off........ I just can't win....

What about all those motorhomers who do nothing other than rant and moan about anything & everything - is it motorhoming that makes them like it or old age?

Finishing a (usually semi-controversial) statement with ‘Just Sayin’.

Make your statement and stand by it, or don't make it.

Not forgetting the reply to how are you today?
“ I’m good “
Came the reply.
“Good at what I would ask ?

Or the ‘How are we today?’ to which I reply:

‘I’m fine but I‘m not in a position to speak for you’.
