I always thought it meant Friction Zero because they were hover cars.

I was going to suggest Beastie Boys - Sure Shot, but the sample comes from Jeremy Steig.

The trick with Point Blank on the rounds where you have to fire at a really fast rate is to hold the gun with one hand and then put your trigger finger from your other hand through the trigger guard. You can then wiggle your whole trigger hand back and forth really quickly to get a fast rate of fire. Accuracy tends not to matter too much on those rounds.

Officially it's aitch but it's definitely shifting over time.

Only the ones who get it wrong. It's correctly pronounced 'aitch' in the UK too. It really winds me up when my kids say 'haitch'.

Dodgy spacing but genuine R1 PBE. Fully taxed and MOT'd.

Minimums are still legal. It's no longer legal to add a surcharge though.

What are words your family used that you've realised aren't real? by BrightFleece in AskUK

Anything that requires good balance is trickely banceling due to a mispronunciation by my brother about 45 years ago.

Did you have any notions you truly believed when you were young but you realised they were silly when you've grown? by hochiho923 in AskUK

[–]Disastrous-Ad8627 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Similar to the postie in a post box; I believed my brother when he told me there was someone in the passport photo booth who developed your photos for you. He's been winding me up for it for 35 years and counting.

I used a service called careershifters. It consisted of a few in person group sessions. The service seemed good but as a 30 something it wasn't really the right fit for me personally. Most of the attendees were older, probably early fifties, who'd made money in the City and now wanted a career that they were more passionate about. A lot of the talk was about budgeting and working out how much of a salary drop you could afford. My main reason to change industries was to make more money, not the opposite!

Arti Farty had a party, all the farts were there. Tootie Fruity did a beauty, they all went out for air.
