    And that woman who sings on it looks (and sounds) like a parrot that's fallen off its perch (remarkable bird, the Norwegian Blue)

    Also on my shit-list are people at the supermarket who wait for the check-out person to say what the total bill is before rooting in their handbag for their purse. And people who say "definately" will be first against the wall when the revolution comes
    Definitely agree with you there.

    As for the Robin Reliant, I've been known to tell people there's no such thing. They argue and I tell them to look it up.

    Another thing is Londoners who are unable to use the abbreviation 'didn't' and pronounce it 'ditn'. God know why, I hear it quite often.

    With regards to pronunciation, how come some Americans can't say ask? They say axe?
