Companies pretending to do a survey but actually just making up a load of bollocks to get their brand in the news, cos its cheaper than advertising.

I'd put that about No 6 on the list

"Eating Indian food, drinking Belgian beer, watching programmes on a Japanese TV and driving a German car."

Billy Bragg (sort of) wrote a song about this... England, Half English

My mother was half English

And I'm half English too

I'm a great big bundle of culture

Tied up in the red white and blue

I'm a fine example of your Essex man

I'm well familiar with the Hindustan

Cause my neighbors are half English

And I'm half English too

My breakfast was half English

And so am I you know

I had a plate of Marmite soldiers

Washed down with a cappuccino

And I'll have a veggie curry about once a week

The next day a fry it up as "Bubble 'N' Squeak"

'Cause my appetite's half English

And I'm half English too

Dance with me

To this very English melody

From Morris Dancing to Morrissey

All that stuff came from across the sea

Britannia she's half English

She speaks Latin at home

St. George was born in the Lebanon

How he got here I don't know

And those three lions on his shirt

They never sprung from England's dirt

Them lions are half English

And I'm half English too

Ignorance.....I cant understand people who ignore and don't challenge

Is that what ignorance means?

I'm sure he wasn't giving the definition of 'ignorance', more giving his view point that ignorance is not challenged enough and that it should. And rightly so it should be called out more."

Fair. I was so confused at first lmao

"Signing off an email with just "Regards" to show that you're absolutely livid"

I always sign off with regards, cos I hate kind regards.

The one that bugs me is probably adopted from some other country, but waiters/waitresses saying "Enjoy". It's "enjoy it" or "enjoy your meal".

Is this dustbins you can have sex with?

I'm taking this idea to Dragon's Den.
