I think most people know who Andrew is.
Which is why I’m baffled as to why there hasn’t been an interview with a Pizza Express employee who remembers that time when A MAJOR MEMBER OF THE ROYAL f.cking FAMILY popped in for tea.
This is a joke. It definitely didn't happen.

My avatar was a scientific result that was later found to be 'mistaken' - I rarely claim to be 100% correct
ETA 5/8/20: I've been advised that the result was correct, it was the initial interpretation that needed to be withdrawn
Meta? I'd say so!

Yeah, if there was a prize for being on the wrong side of every argument Toby "Son of Baron" Young would be a strong contender for it. It could sit on the shelf next to the "Unearned Privilege" and " Lesser Son of a Greater Father" Awards he'd also be a strong contender for.

I'm in California for work at the moment, and introduced some of the engineers I was visiting to that word.

Re: Prince Andrew
They also need to learn that 'bollocks' is much more satisfying to say than 'balls' - as long as they don't pronounce it the way they do 'buttocks' like it's two separate words (butt - ox).
Re: Prince Andrew
Yup, and the engineers there seem amenable to such views.

Re: Prince Andrew
I don't think I've ever heard an American who wasn't a fictional character do the butt-ox pronunciation thing. The vowel sound changes regionally, as does the hardness of the 'tt', but Gump's version is non-standardTessa K wrote: ↑Sat Nov 23, 2019 1:18 pmThey also need to learn that 'bollocks' is much more satisfying to say than 'balls' - as long as they don't pronounce it the way they do 'buttocks' like it's two separate words (butt - ox).
The half-truths, repeated, authenticated themselves.

I assume you mean Forest Gump, which I've never seen. And never will. Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get. You do if you read the f.cking label, tw.t.

Probably went to a homeopathic one. Their records are illegible, because the ink is 30C.
