Luncheon is for softies
Luncheon is for softies
Poster I saw the other day:
Mm. I hate to nitpick, but there is maybe a slight problem with the way you are visezing for your objectif to speak English the way they do on Wall Street...
(And I dont just mean that your Union Jack is upside down. Thats the least of your problems with it.)
(How do I know its upside down? From the fimbriation of the ordinaries, thats how.)
(Oh, and please dont tell me its the Union Flag if its not flown from a ship. Thats one of those facts that every uncle knows, but isnt actually true. You definitely dont call it the Union Flag at sea, but both terms are acceptable on land, and personally I like Union Jack.)
(In the brackets above, I initially wrote Thats one of those facts that every uncle knows, but if you said it on QI, the klaxon would go off. But then I checked, and annoyingly someone did say it on QI, and the klaxon didnt go off. But it should have done.)
(Thats a lot of clarifications. Maybe I dont hate to nitpick after all.)
