Quote from: The Great Cull on October 03, 2025, 09:09:25 PMOne that boils my piss however is the increasing number of people who like to refer to maths in the singular. "I was looking at the math"  >:(

It's a North American thing, they all say it here. Another one that bugs me is not saying 'of' after 'couple'. 'I'm going for a couple drinks' etc. I'm guessing the kids see it online and adopt it.

Looking at a selection of food or drink and saying I'm going do a Guinness or I'm gonna do a cheese toastie. What exactly are you going to do to it?

Aye, an extension of that 'ooh let's do lunch sometime ' ,away and and fuck like
Wearing jeans and leather, not crackerjack clothes

watch out for scalding tomatoes if you ever do a cheese toastie

Tomatoes are pure shite in all forms.

Raw tomatoes are ignorant, cooked down in various sauces are fine, tomato sauce is grand.

A big problem is 99% of supermarket tomatoes are practically flavourless and people insist in eating them straight out of the fridge.  They need to be at room temperature, like strawberries otherwise the cold masks the flavour (if there is any in them). 

But a fresh homegrown tomato straight off the vine is amazing... If you can be arsed with all the watering  and looking after they need.

Tomatoes are unreal. Room temperature, a sprinkle of salt and a little drizzle of olive oil. Hard to bate.

The flies this year seem to be extra cunty. Just stay in one spot so I can kill you for fuck sake!!

Aye home grown tomatoes are fantastic. Shop bought the irish ones are OK. The Holland/Spain/Morocco ones are all shyte.

I suppose pasata is a necessary evil.

Tomatoes themselves are nothing nut watery shite.

You can't bayt a tomato sangwidge.

That's just soggy bread with a few seeds. I've been enjoying burgers so much more since I stopped tomatoes going on them. And ketchup.
