22,000 checks will be deducted from the wrong bank accounts in the next hour.

Hopefully some will be paid wrongfully into mine!
"A 'jiffy' is an actual unit of time for 1/100th of a second."

Then what would a 'jaffa' be? 1/1000th of a second?

Jaffa is the term for a man who is sterile, not a gay person, regardless of where you are from.
Jaffa is a drink here, kinda orange juice.

Quote from BlueFlame :regardless of where you are from.

I'm not saying it's the correct technical term, i'm saying where I am from that is how it is used.
  • Coca-Cola was originally green.
  • The state with the highest percentage of people who walk to work: Alaska
  • 111,111,111 x 111,111,111 = 12,345,678,987,654,321
  • Intelligent people have more zinc and copper in their hair.
  • Men can read smaller print than women can; women can hear better.
  • Every day more money is printed for Monopoly than the US Treasury
Quote from AMB :I'm not saying it's the correct technical term, i'm saying where I am from that is how it is used.

And I'm saying, you've mistaken one word with another. Ask your dad lol
I don't think you can correct someone's colloquialisms unless you're from the same place as them. Jeez, you wouldn't even be able to pronounce some of them from where I was born

And some more pointless stuff:
  • If you give a small amount of alcohol to a scorpion it goes mad and stings itself to death
  • The correct name for the hash key (#) is "octothorpe"
  • If you unfolded and laid out all of the sensitive membranes from a dog's nose, it would be larger than the dog itself

I believe they load it on those magical things known as "Lorries" and "Vans" and drive them to "distribution centers" where yet more "Lorries" and "Vans" drive them to stores across the country in order to be sold!

'Aint life magical..

Thankfully!
However, returnable glass bottles (I think they were 22p when I left the country, what are they these days?) seem to be confined to north of the border. Sad.
Average British person spends 3 months of their life in a queue.

Glass is officially a supercooled liquid, some people say it can flow, others say that's a lie.
