NO TOPIC

You —

Well This is the new No Topic Topic. 😛

For those who do not know, this place is to talk about nothing. Nada. Zilch. And everything else which according to you does not deserve it's own topic.

The other one was getting a bit long, and was just full of bickering now.

So we have a new start.

The bickering in the Old no topic should not be carried over to here.

EDIT - go to [url=/node/1781]NO TOPIC[/url] the Third.

Brighton College has introduced a compulsory etiquette course for its pupils covering such topics as when to remove one's jacket at dinner, which fork to use when and how to waltz.

But how's your grasp of modern manners? [url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/7180661.stm]Test yourself[/url].

I answered all of the questions and it only scored 2/10. So much for the BBC's manners! Cappuccino, what next?!! Next time I'm at a formal dinner I'm going to shout to the people opposite.

Snoopz — Sun, 13 Jan 2008 - 01:05

For the sake of comparison I took the test a second time and scored 10, but I salute your strong character.

Here are the real answers:

1. Ask for a proper coffee.
2. If accepting, reply by mail with a handwritten message on the RSVP note. If declining, write a letter full of good wishes and congratulations and be sure to give a good excuse. BBC can have a point for this one.
3. At a fancy dress party.
4. Be the life of the party and talk to everyone. Try especially to make conversation with people who seem shy or left out for any reason. Be sensitive but if you get a sulk from anyone such as a BBC manners expert, be very visibly enjoying yourself along with anyone else who's game.
5. Use any damn fork you like while pointing and laughing at the BBC manners expert.
6. BBC take note. I like my water in a teacup and my Scotch in a red wine glass. If you don't have Scotch I'll probably settle for red wine in a coffee cup.
7. Well done BBC! 2/10
8. The answer to this question depends very much on whether the bridesmaid is single and attractive.
9. Never put the lid down (unless it's one of those lids that just doesn't stay up). In a mostly male environment, leave the seat up by day and down by night. In a mostly female environment, leave the seat down and be sure to leave the place super-clean.
10. "Your dog reeks. Please get it out of my face."

reminds me of primary school.

Every class had to sing it during assembly at LEAST once.

consequently we heard it almost every term at some point.

This version lacks something in comparison to an out-of-tune piano and a chorus of tone-deaf north-Londoners...

Sirus — Sun, 13 Jan 2008 - 11:52

Funzo — Sun, 13 Jan 2008 - 22:30

Theres loads of these people think having a bad rep is cool and doing such things is cool, but what they dont realise is that in the akhira it wont help them cuz they can take it with them when they go.
