Fork and knife. You're welcome!
Jump to: Newest in thread
I was at work the other night and a colleague kept saying fork and knife to me, I went all funny and gave me all kinds of weird feelings, when I got in my car I yelled out loud "who the fuck says fork and knife! It's knife and fork!". I felt better after that.
Anyone else gets a weird feeling when someone else says something that I universally goes together and but say it the wrong way round it feels dirty lol. |

Have you reported said colleague to the authorities. Sounds like alien infiltration to me. |

Can't think of any at the mo as not been in English company for two weeks, but 'pacifically' instead of 'specifically ' is annoying. Also mis pronunciation of the eighth letter of the alphabet - it is not pronounced 'hay-tch' |

I am guilty of not being able to say specific unless I really think about it. My husband knows what I'm not about if I use the world Atlantic, it makes him laugh at least. I also can't say the word (and can't spell it either lol) when you do the side eye and say my profiteroles. |

Uh oh. I should keep my opinions to myself (as always).
Don't get me started on religion or politics - far too many opinions.

Yeah the Pacific thing is just lazy Essex English for the hard of thinking. |

"Perhaps he was uttering it in the fashion of how it's placed upon the table: fork (L) and knife (R).

Possibly. He didn't need to say it about 6 times though lol"

Why not? Dorothy clicked her heels six times, uttering "there's no place like home...". |

"Yeah it's weird!!! Totally agree
Can't think of any at the mo, but I'd imagine there's a few like it!
Miss S x"
Wait til I am back in good old Blighty and I am sure I will be reminded of many.
I can't claim to be a linguistic purist as I get many wrong and pretty sure that the number of expressions I have forgotten is a sign of early onset dementia (though I like to think that my brain is too full!) |

"Miss Danish you seem to forget you say sin instead of seen, I used to laugh at you until almost everyone I've spoken to in Kent says sin as well "
Charming. To be fair, I hadn't noticed it either until I started listening to people and realised that majority of us do say it lol |

I once had a date with a bird who said chips and fish ( excuse me, just run that passed me again )
Fair to say, there was no second date, don’t have time for that kind of nonsense in my life.
The mr |
