In terms of verbal:
‘If you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best’
‘I do not bite….hard  ‘
In terms of facial, it is smirking or over exaggerated eye blinking
Any combo of that above you definitely would get a slap |

I went to see Russell Howard live and he did an hilarious sequence with 'if you can't handle me at my best' line. Russell Howard bent over shaking his ass as he retells quoting that to his wife will be what I will see in my head next time I hear it |

I don’t care if she looks like Salma Hayek and has the ability to suck a golf ball through a garden hose if they have “if you can’t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best” on their profile it’s a left swipe and a block.

"All that glitters is not gold" its meant to be "All that glisters is not gold"
And when people say "pacific" instead of "specific" it's basic grammar for God's sake! |

During Covid, there was an Irish Government decision to relax measures and allow people to meet up over Christmas.
They referred to it as ‘ A Meaningful Christmas’

I did mention the 360 problem to a rather annoying manager once. She somewhat lost her shit and quoted corporate handbook page 4 "You need to have a Positve Mental Attitude" Nick. Ahhhhhh...PMA...how I miss that one too.
Thankfully, her boss was my old boss (a best friend these days), and he quoted "Nick's results are currently the only thing making your department look good" back at her.
She did an enormous 180 after that . |

Remove both of these from the sentence, they are not needed. Can you imagine needing to stop in an emergency, and some America shouts ((( go ahead and stop))), oh too late. Oops. Grrrr, sentence needed to be (((stop))).

"Live, laugh, love
Any old shite somebody sticks on to a wall that's similar "
I tend to avoid people who stencil fundamental parts of the human condition onto their walls as reminders of how to be. |

'Literally' for things that are figurative |

Not an expression as such but missing the preposition 'to'. As in
'I'm going town' or I'm going toilet' |

"It's your age"...
"Whatever".... |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
^^ that reminds me
'age is just a number'
Stop it! It isn't just a number, I don't want my age dismissed like that as if the years I've been alive aren't significant in any way |

A word is see here a bit. "Absofuckinglutely"
And "it's 5 o clock somewhere" or "we're only holiday"
If you want to have a drink at 11am, just have one |

"Not my first rodeo
Like"
I have 'not my first rodeo' on my profile. However it is tongue in cheek and a slight mickey take at people who have it on theirs. I go onto say 'I once did a bucking bronco in benidorm.' |
