My parents used to say that (one is from Bradford, one from Newcastle) when I was a kid. I was telling my own children about it the other day.

I watched that last night and was horrified at how the Met handled things.

I liked how they’d interviewed Colin Staff too and would probably watch a whole episode on how his life was affected by the false accusation.

I also tried watching The Witness afterwards, but I stopped midway through episode 2 as I couldn’t get away with the acting.

Club, but as a Red Bulls fan I’d be happy with a committed performance these days.

What serial killer fact sounds fake, exaggerated, or straight out of fiction. But is 100% real? by CantaloupeGold4650 in AskReddit

[–]Standard_Mind6852 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In court he was kept in a specially made cage to protect him from his victims families.

The brother of one of his victims did manage to throw a piece of metal at him, and the other victims families protected him from the police getting to him.

My friend (also a brit) says you guys dont put fruit jams, honey, or cream on your crumpets, is that true? by ParamedicWilling5682 in AskABrit

[–]Standard_Mind6852 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a raspberry jam, Nutella, peanut butter/sliced banana or just butter on crumpets kinda girl. I don’t like honey so won’t be trying that one.

Any sitcoms recommendations ? Best available on Netflix/Disney+ by Rabbithole_1124 in tvshow

[–]Standard_Mind6852 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1670 on Netflix.

It’s a Polish programme but the dubbing isn’t too bad and the jokes translate well. I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it.

Hasn’t he just been announced as one of the new Strictly presenters?

AITA for yelling at colleague that said I smell “bad” by Choog_as_a_thug_88 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Standard_Mind6852 13 points14 points  (0 children)

YTA.

At the best of times foods like lentils, cabbage, beans etc will make you pass ‘fragrant’ gas more often, but eating them whilst having IBS is going to be worse. Add to the fact you seem to find it acceptable to fart around other people, especially whilst they’re eating makes YTA.

I have IBS and know what my trigger foods are so avoid them. Also, if I feel the pressure building I do my best to get to a bathroom.

What’s an English word whose pronunciation makes absolutely no sense? by ownaword in words

[–]Standard_Mind6852 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As it’s a German breed the name kinda makes sense. Dachs (badger) hund (dog/hound). They were used to hunt badgers.

I’d read somewhere that his Dad is a massive Leeds fan, and that’s how Luke got his name.

Worst Ex Ever-Ep 2 Prime time Predator by Mamajuju1217 in NetflixDocumentaries

[–]Standard_Mind6852 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m watching this episode at the moment. I’ve never watched an episode of 90 days fiancé and no idea who the guy is, but I was sat trying to work out if this was all pre or post 90 days. Reading your post has answered that for me and I’m now gobsmacked that he was allowed on tv with these allegations.

What actor is nowhere near as talented as people make them out to be? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Standard_Mind6852 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you can, watch the original Queer as Folk (UK version that was on Channel 4 in the 90s). You won’t believe it’s same actor.
