Not true, they taste the same. And I like the crust on my sandwiches, triangular ones usually don't have crust.

2) At the end of every party there is always a girl crying.

Yeah, that seems to happen, even when it's a stag and doe, who usually ends up being the bride because she's so hammered that she starts crying when thanking everyone for coming.

3) One of the most awkward things that can happen in a pub is when your pint-to-toilet cycle gets synchronised with a complete stranger.

Even flushed the toilet in a stall the exact same time someone else does and you both exit the stall at the same time. That is weird. You hate to make eye contact but you can't help but make eye contact because of the oddity of it all.

4) You've never quite sure whether it's ok to eat green crisps.

What are green crisps?

5) Everyone who grew up in the 80's has entered the digits 55378008 into a calculator.

8008 or 58008 yes, 55378008 never (i will now)

6) Reading when you're drunk is horrible.

Wouldn't know, don't drink but that must be crazy.

7) Sharpening a pencil with a knife makes you feel really manly.

Damn straight it does, using a knife for anything makes you feel more manly.

8) You're never quite sure whether it's against the law or not to have a fire in your back garden.

9) Nobody ever dares make cup-a-soup in a bowl.

Been there, done both, fire true and yes made cup-a-soup in a bowl. What's wrong with that?

10) You never know where to look when eating a banana.

ROFLMFAO!!!

11) Its impossible to describe the smell of a wet cat.

Wouldn't know, what does it smell like?

12) Prodding a fire with a stick makes you feel manly.

13) Rummaging in an overgrown garden will always turn up a bouncy ball.

14) You always feel a bit scared when stroking horses.

15) Everyone always remembers the day a dog ran into your school.

16) The most embarrassing thing you can do as schoolchild is to call your teacher mum or dad.

Yes, all very true. I feel weird just riding a horse, especially after seeing that movie where it gets the woman off. I remember the day a dog ran into our public school, kids were going nuts trying to chase it to pet it. The teachers were trying to catch it to get it out.

17) The smaller the monkey the more it looks like it would kill you at the first given opportunity.

Really? But they are so cute.

18) Some days you see lots of people on crutches.

19) Every bloke has at some stage while taking a pee flushed half way through and then raced against the flush.

Never really noticed, and never done that.

20) Old women with mobile phones look wrong!

21) Its impossible to look cool whilst picking up a Frisbee.

22) Driving through a tunnel makes you feel excited.

Yes, lol true.

23) You never ever run out of salt.

That reminds me, I keep forgetting to pick up salt. I'm out. :/ No joke either, pepper on the other hand seems bottomless.

24) Old ladies can eat more than you think.

25) You can't respect a man who carries a dog.

26) There's no panic like the panic you momentarily feel when you've got your hand or head stuck in something.

Ha, yeah those are so true.

27) No one knows the origins of their metal coat hangers.

28) Despite constant warning, you have never met anybody who has had their arm broken by a swan.

I've never heard of that warning before...nor have ever met anyone who has so there is some truth to that.

29) The most painful household incident is wearing socks and stepping on an upturned plug.

30) People who don't drive slam car doors too hard

32) Everyone had an uncle who tried to steal their nose.

33) Bricks are horrible to carry.

34) In every plate of chips there is a bad chip.

Yep, 31 I wouldn't know. Bricks...I have a the scars on my finger to prove it.

 
Aha, that was cute to read. Thanks for that. I think 30 is true for me. I don't drive, and sometimes when I shut car doors, I know I slam them way too hard.
 
Every time someone does that (with my car) I cringe.

Btw who's Peter Kay?
 
He's a british northern comedian, very funny sort of a national treasure really. We always seem to watch a DVD of his someone got as a present over Xmas and everyone would be laughing, young and old. Which is a rare talent really! Its sort of observational humour about the typical English working class family so might not travel too well overseas. Dunno, youtube him and see :)

1) Triangular sandwiches taste better than square ones.

They do! Maybe because the first bite is the best and you can jam it into your mouth easier point first than coming at it lengthways and getting filling round your mouth! :)

15) Everyone always remembers the day a dog ran into your school.

Me too, its amazing how many people have had this experience.

19) Every bloke has at some stage while taking a pee flushed half way through and then raced against the flush.

Yep done that before! As an aside, a very good friend told me he urinates sitting down the other day which I found strangely disconcerting, anyway...

22) Driving through a tunnel makes you feel excited.

Yeah thats the child in me :)



 
LOL I sit down to pee if I bring reading material with me. It's good to do when you are tired too, less chance of peeing all over the seat.
 
That really made me laugh and I agree with most of them too but then again I'm a northern woman with the surname Kay in the family! :rolleyes:

This reminded me of something....

A couple of years ago, I was in Edinburgh at a pub. It was a small place, but everyone was really friendly. Id been steadily drinking Smirnoff Ice (and some other fruity drink) for about an hour when the potty breaks began.
On one of my final trips to the facilities, a young man, who was obviously inebriated somehow managed to find himself stumbling backward, with his shirt around his head and over his eyes (still not sure how that happened). He was at the bar and I was passing by, heading toward the facilities, when he stumbled back and managed to elbow me in the ****s. :club:

He righted his clothing and saw what he'd done. He turned a bit pink and said, "Sorry love" and moved to climb back on his stool at the bar. I made it to the potty and back and was having another drink when I noticed that same young man tumble right off of his stool, onto the floor. I immediately laughed - and spewed my Smirnoff all over the table.

But 4.5 million years of evolution means we don't have to queue for the toilet during the interval. Theres a reason they invented the she wee!
