The Smug housing thread ...

Off topic I know but...

Where does this thing of calling everyone son or sunshine come from? Is it a Manc thing? I thought you were early twenties?

I think it is a put down. Consider yourself dissed sonny

Worked this cycle beautifully. Bought my first 2-bed garden flat in 1995 for 56K. Put deposits on a further 3 more during the course of 97-99. Rents covered mortgage easily. Upgraded the first one to a house. Sold the 3 BTLs for mega profit last year. Used part to pay off house. Loads of cash to invest in the next cycle.

SG in <<smug git>> mode.

Still bleating on about your cycle?

Yeah, I could understand the patronising implication if it was to someone younger but IIRC he's only in his early twenties. In which case it's just funny in an equally 'awww, look at him in his daddies suit pretending to be a grown up' patronising way.

Its a put down to those who I see as inferior to myself.

I was expecting this to lead to something about sas's menstrual cycle...

I can't believe he has a mrs. There must be some really desperate women out there.

But it doesn't work if you're clearly younger than them. I would suggest an alternative approach. There must be plenty of material out there.

You've such an inflated view of yourself, that must use it at the end of every sentence.
