    "The Art of the Possible" makes me want to laugh out loud. Wouldn't it be fun if you could challenge these people and say "what EXACTLY do you mean?" then watch them flounder

      "off of" instead of... "off"
      The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

      But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

        It's something we, who work for other than Domino's Pizza, hear frequently.

            Who has time? Who has time? But then if we do not ever take time, how can we ever have time?

              Or who sit tight throughout the trailers and adverts, but then go out for a slash five minutes after the film has started! What's going on with that?

              Just bring a potty, no-one would mind.

                People who tut-tut whenever I spend 5 minutes wandering through half-empty cinemas in search of a seat. Some seats have popcorn and soft drinks under them, you know.

                    it's the discarded potties that do it for me.

                      and the rest. I was in a cinema in Romford a few months ago with some girls from clientco (long story), and a couple of gay guys sitting side by side in the row behind were snogging and groaning. I didn't like to turn round, and it was pretty dark, but God knows what they were up to - the full Monty by the sound of it.
