People who say "No problem!"

[SpokeyDokey]

Ah, you are at the summit of Mt Stupid and soon to plummet into the Valley of Despair.

I rather like that - never seen it before. Will probably have a good old cog' on it when we hit the G & T's around midnight and the wine and prosecco are in the rear view mirror.

 

[Dayvo]

Well I agree 110%.
A golfing mate just hates it when people use that expression.

I bet he cheats at golf!

Came across it on a training course years back and it ably summed up what occurs when learning a new subject especially if you get some good early successes.

Presumably that is not intended as a regular verb otherwise I might be right on over Pet, Love, mudsticks.

I'd say that sounds highly irregular.

And really, I'm quite shocked at such an inference.

What with you being an' moral moderator on CC, and in addition - as far as I know - an respectabubble married man

 

[JPBoothy]

That is absolutely fine.

If you are Australian.

Mmm yes, I tend to agree that if you are Australian then it doesn't seem out of place as they are generally quite laid back characters who probably do not have many worries.. However, if you are a middle aged Brit who's trying to 'get down with the kids' by using that expression then perhaps not. Richard Hammond on Top Gear comes to mind when he was going through his 'hey dude' phase of long hair, stubble and leather bracelets. But, I've never really given it much thought

 

[JPBoothy]

When I run market stalls, I usually say something along the lines of "Hello, or good morning, how are you doing ?"

People then tended to stick around to chat about their favourite subject (themselves) and would almost invariably buying something before moving on.

I guess it helped that I was also selling the best veg in the valley,



Was that really a branding??

Whoever came up with that one, must have felt really proud to get it past the company linguists

Yes, they were quite cunning there

Childish I know, but I used to love Viz

 

[raleighnut]

But he's a liar....

And I'm not sure about you.

 

[Deleted member 26715]

And I'm not sure about you.

Kristy is that you?

 

[MontyVeda]

...
Or should I just open another bottle and chill?

This. You shouldn't even need to open the bottle.

Do you ever say 'Hi' or 'Ciao' when talking to your non American or Italian buddies or amici? 😉

 

[Dayvo]

Worked in the local chippy didn't he.

Did he swear a lot, too?

Do you ever say 'Hi' or 'Ciao' when talking to your non American or Italian buddies or amici? 😉

Ciaos - rarely (usually to Brits)
Hi - yup, quite a lot. Not fussy about nationality.
Also, I say "Allons-y!" and "Ahoy-hoy" quite a lot.

 

[newfhouse]

Also, I say "Ahoy-hoy" quite a lot.

Are you Montgomery Burns?

 

[sheddy]

That sounds like Danny Baker.

 

[matticus]

Also, I say "Allons-y!" and "Ahoy-hoy" quite a lot.

Are you Montgomery Burns?

No (and I'm not Alexander Graham Bell either)
I'm afraid I got it from a much more sinister character
