Things that are inarguably true

A warm toilet seat at home is optimal, but a cold toilet seat in public is best.

There are bands playing at Glastonbury who are just there to be weird.

Correct, people that claim to like sparks actually enjoy talking about how you don't get them more than they actually like listening to them

I bloody love Sparks.

Whenever I went (quite a few times, but ticket price is a bit steep for me now) it’s the stages with the weird stuff that are always the most entertaining. The Shibushashirazu Orchestra was one highlight that pops into my head, as was Ata Kak.

I subscribe to a similar view to Limmy on this one

Whenever you decide to do a 'pretty straightforward' refurbishment, repair or redecoration task in the house, there are always unforeseen disasters awaiting you.... then it takes at least twice as long and is at least twice as expensive as originally anticipated

During any messageboard argument, it's more important to have the last word than be correct.

The use of paragraphs, single sentences, individual words or even emojis are all acceptable devices to achieve this.

Start holidaying in areas that are usually frequented by German and Dutch holidaymakers instead, that’s what I’ve started doing in recent years and it’s been great to escape the flock of England, Celtic and Rangers tops binging lager and chips at 2pm every day. Also when they’re talking too loud they can’t actually annoy me too much because I don’t understand German very well or Dutch at all, they might be saying ridiculously stupid things but I’m none the wiser, good for my blood pressure.

You rarely see an adult in a really big teams top. You'll get bairns in Real Madrid, Barcelona, Man Utd, Liverpool etc tops. With adults though it's always Celtic and Rangers (away tops if you are going somewhere fancy for dinner) and absolute no mark English teams like Barnsley, Rotherham and Macclesfield. Flags draped over balconies as well 'Baggies on tour'.

Remember staying opposite a Rangers bar in Turkey a few years back. Boys swaggering about in the same orange away top for 2 weeks who have dropped a couple of grand to go on holiday to the Loudoun Tavern.

I've got a mate, nice lad, good dad to his daughter etc etc and yet for some reason, they go en famille to Tenerife or similar every summer (fair enough) but as far as I can tell, with the exception of a couple of nights, wears a Celtic top and sometimes shorts the whole time.

Bizarre behaviour. I personally find that Celtic tops are a bit more omnipresent especially in places you wouldn't expect to see either like here in Zurich.

One's wife asking a question with the phrase "shall we" or "would you like to" is not, in fact, asking you a question. It's a non negotiable instruction

Totally, “we need to put some weedkiller down in the front garden” or “I think the back lawn needs cut” “We have to think about painting the ceiling” translated into Wife talk, its me who will have to do it all !!

Wife was on the phone to one of my Daughters who just had a new washing machine delivered in which she paid to have it installed, the guy just laughed at my Daughter and said its not on his job list. My Wife without thought, oh Dad can do it, he can plumb it in on Friday after work, wtf !! 😵

yep, and usually also the tracksuit, baseball cap (perched at the back of the head), trainers by the same manufacturer as the top

Do they buy multiple "taps" - like more than one home top, more than one away top, etc.? They seem to wear the same thing day after day. Must make the packing easy.

Surely some mistake? There must be at least 1 of the 400,000 burgundy-clad blowhards wearing the ‘famous’ marone…

The faster you try to complete certain tasks, the longer they'll take (e.g., untangling wired headphones).

The quieter you try to do something, the louder the noise you eventually make will be (e.g., trying to quietly navigate your way to the toilet in the middle of the night when you're staying with other people).

[Since90+2]

Honestly couldn't care less what people choose to wear, on holiday or otherwise. I do find it quite funny that some folk get a bit annoyed by it though.
