layton Posted November 25, 2007 Posted November 25, 2007 To folks who say cheers and are not English... ...cut it out you passive aggressive fuck faces. You sound like a complete fucker when you end your little statement or conversation with that hoity-toity english exclamation of assholishness. When you end your holier than thou art little "suggestion" wrapped up in a bullshit helpful tone and you utter than pussy Brit word, while lifting your gay little chin and closing your eyes in smug satisfaction after finishing your stupid fucking comment or conversation, I want to smack your bitch-ass mouth. Cheers! Quote
layton Posted November 25, 2007 Author Posted November 25, 2007 no, toodles only insinuates goodbye, while cheers is both goodbye and thanks at the same time - which is why it's so annoying because it effectively shuts down further communication after the cheergiver utters his or her proclamation, leaving the other person unable to add to the discussion. Plus it's just a pompous way to say goodbye. Quote

foraker Posted November 26, 2007 Posted November 26, 2007 You know what I hate? Those situations where somebody does something that really torques your panties. Like saying 'colour' when they mean 'color'. See? Get's to you, too, doesn't it? But that's not what really bothers me. What really bothers me is when people change their mind, right in the middle of talking to you. And what really really bothers me, is getting your undies torqued, saying 'Please, sir, may I have another?', and then going home and posting a really really righteous screed on the Internet about the wanker that just torqued your undies. Except, the screed really isn't righteous and you just used the word 'wanker' instead of that all-American term: asshat. Quote

Cheers! I'll give you a 7.5 on the 10-point rant scale. You need to infuse it with more profanity but you do get extra points for the use of "hoity-toity" which has nearly become extinct from the lexicon. What I find equally annoying/amusing is the use of the prefix "Dr." by those without a medical doctorate. I recently had to deal with an attorney who was a chiro and went by "Dr. Aaron DeShaw, Esq." And guess what--he's a personal injury plaintiff's attorney. Or the Ph.D. who insists you address him as "Dr." Cheers! p.s. No offense intended Dr. Layton. Edited November 26, 2007 by rbw1966 Quote
Hugh Conway Posted November 26, 2007 Posted November 26, 2007 So do Aussies and Kiwis get the Layton stinkeye? PHDs were called Doctors centuries before MDs and Chiroquacktors took up the term (which MDs did in a fit of pique because they were not afforded the same status as PHDs, and chiropractors later followed) Quote
foraker Posted November 26, 2007 Posted November 26, 2007 So do you dislike the title Dr, as used by non-medical types, on general principals or only when they insist that you use that title while speaking to them. I'd say 99.999% of them never use it, except on stationery or in official correspondence (because it does tend to get more notice...go figure). However, having a PhD and using the title Dr is technically correct. Quote
olyclimber Posted November 26, 2007 Posted November 26, 2007 Mike just wants a place where everyone knows his name Quote
ivan Posted November 26, 2007 Posted November 26, 2007 Mike just wants a place where everyone knows his name WTF? i clearly was first on the draw w/ this most obscure of references (see above!) - and erik, who's yer thread-killer now beyotch!?! Quote
catbirdseat Posted November 26, 2007 Posted November 26, 2007 The Cheers reference only seems obscure to those still sporting peach fuzz. Quote
Dechristo Posted November 26, 2007 Posted November 26, 2007 Get used to it Ivan, Porter copies all my quips. He, also, ends most of his posts and Pms with, "Cheers". Quote
ivan Posted November 26, 2007 Posted November 26, 2007 The Cheers reference only seems obscure to those still sporting peach fuzz. yup, that pretty much describes me, despite having obtained the double-trey... Quote
