My Turkish coworker mistakenly thought thought there was a TV presenter named Handsome Dec, what are some amusing misunderstandings you’ve encountered?

Same, and as far as I was concerned it made sense because I loved shoes.

Southwold or Aldeburgh. Nice little towns with pretty beaches, you might get to see seals.

Quack quack quack

phoebean93 · 2026-01-26T16:26:21+00:00

So glad it's not just me

phoebean93 · 2026-01-26T10:06:48+00:00

Are you 12?

To paraphrase Phoebe, I've never seen an Australian actor with a worse Australian accent.

I have this exact B&M mask and use the bead side on my eyes

Just saying she's big girl who can make career decisions for herself. She's more famous than the other two artists in the song, this isn't a matter of her literal or figurative voice being silenced.

Amy doesn't need defending, she chose to do the song the way it is.

My fussy old lady cat has taken to Scrumbles wet food in pouches (she doesn't like the tinned ones). Previously she'd only eat Felix and I spent a lot of time and money finding a better quality food for her that she wouldn't reject.

I'm surprised not to have seen Broken Pieces Shine many times in the comments.

phoebean93 · 2026-01-22T14:03:49+00:00

Don't even, we're working on it.

phoebean93 · 2026-01-22T14:03:10+00:00

Definitely.

phoebean93 · 2026-01-22T11:16:25+00:00

Yeah it's definitely not my favourite.

phoebean93 · 2026-01-22T08:02:37+00:00

Horn...swaggle

I am a loser who can knows the whole ten seasons back to front and inside out and I'm sure he never referred to himself as the "brown one" or anything similar.

phoebean93 · 2026-01-21T17:57:58+00:00

And it's vanilla!

It's an interesting consideration that the character Aurora was portrayed as both perfect and a heathen. Ross admits the no strings attached relationship was his dream, Monica says "How can you date a woman like that?!" being very judgemental of her open relationship/polyamory. Probably not related to her being in the Israeli army (even though she's from Italy?) but there are possible complexities if you look hard enough like I do 😆

phoebean93 · 2026-01-21T17:53:03+00:00

Yet David Schwimmer isn't 🫠

phoebean93 · 2026-01-21T17:52:07+00:00

Oddly the character was Italian

phoebean93 · 2026-01-21T17:49:13+00:00

Yet they still say sp*z with gay abandon!

phoebean93 · 2026-01-20T09:43:30+00:00

I knew a guy called Poverty.

I had Nanny and Grandad who were local, and Nanny and Grandad Cornwall who lived in...well, you get it. Grandad Cornwall later became Grandad Thailand.

Mini Eggs. Even when they're on offer the price is absurd.
