Had to laugh. A teenager in front of me at the queue at a supermarket checkout asked the sales assistant for "a deck of 10 Marlboro Light".

In fact it was more like: "Yo big man, check me a deck of 10 Marlboro Light."

Remember when you were an ickle teenager and talking like a buffoon seemed so important? Sigh. I remember what it was like...

I guess if we can ask for a pack of cards, they have the right to a deck of cigarettes.

Now, the young-uns aren't content with talking gibberish, they write it too.

As demonstrated by the arrival of Text Speak. Some of my friend's facebook status updates look like they're written in a foreign language.

Str8 up m8. Dat iz coz dey iz fick.

Aw bless. He's just a learner.

I saw some other guy in a supermarket (I don't stalk supermarkets - honest) with a pair of trainer-style shoes that had separate holes (for want of a better word) for each toe. His feet looked like giant chimpanzee feet!

Ooh, I love a good gossip me!

Like a flat udder with 5 teats?

I just had to google this phenomenon ...

WOW i want some

Those shoes are just WRONG! You see what I mean my "chimpanzee feet"? The guys feet looked huge and sort of made a "shlopp" sound as the flopped down onto the floor! How I didn't laugh is beyond me.

I love them.

As a rule of thumb, when dressing to meet the outside world, a gentleman should always ask himself, "Would Steed from the Avengers wear this?" If not, he should put the offending article back in his wardrobe to await collection by Oxfam.

See so many of those things at juggling conventions!

I saw somebody wearing those. Thought it was the stupidest thing I've seen in a long time.

Blimey, you've found a pair of shoes worse than crocs

Wow. This thread has just made my day.. but after that, It'll probably kick in that I will have to work with these people in the future Lets hope they have better taste in footwear then.
