Penzance is probably the best Cornish place imo. Weird but cool outdoor pool/looks deserted/loads of nice tiny pubs and bars/generally piratey.

I’d take Penzance, but IT’S NOT MOUSEHOLE

For as long as I can remember my dad has moaned like fuck about Rupert Murdoch.

Other things my dad does include:

  • Buy a Times subscription every year (he has done this for at least 40 years)
  • Pay for Sky TV and has NEVER tried to negotiate with them with their contract is up.

Sake.

Most people of our parent’s generation think the job market is essentially still popping down the high street with an armful of cv’s. Would be funny if it wasn’t the generation running every aspect of the country.

would be really funny to have a grudge about a certain county in the UK and never ever stepping foot in it again, like Hertfordshire, or Tyne and Wear

Full freak out if you dare use the last of any particular item, despite two things: (i) that the user will replace it with a full selection given half-hour and a pop to the local Co-Op, and (ii) no one else was going to consume it in that time.

Conversly, will passagg moan that no one ate the final slice(s) of something she’d baked but hasn’t told about cos she just assumes the boys will come round and help themselves anyway.

The usual cause of this is bacon. When you fancy a bacon sarnie before bed cos cba to cook and it’s easy. “Well I was going to use that for dinner tomorrow” versus “Yes but it’s midnight, nothing’s open and we’ll have been to the shop and back before you get up at 7 am”

Or trifle (and only mum eats trifle yet makes it constantly)

Might push her in a big fucking trifle one of these days.

they never ever have enough food in tbh.

Do you pay in dollars?

Well that was therapeutic. Thanks. Now where was I with voting in all the polls

Despite money being reasonably tight in the Megablast household, the other sure-fire way I can enrage my parents about holidays is to point out that a trip to Tenerife etc would cost a third of their Cornwall jaunt.

DON’T WANT TO SAVE MONEY OR FEEL SUNSHINE, WANT MOUSEHOLE

this drives me absolutely fucking mad. my mum is always bitching about having an LG cos she doesn’t recognise it (it’s not a Sony basically) and says it’s shit and I’m like YOU STILL WATCH EVERYTHING IN SD WHY DO YOU EVEN CARE

Reenact arguments she’d had with someone else, getting increasingly irate at you, forgetting that is isn’t her darling eldest son standing here listening that can’t change her bill with British Gas, it was Patrick you spoke to yesterday.
