Everywhere I’ve lived in the UK has had dedicated school buses. They’re just mostly private hires engaged directly by the school rather than municipal buses provided by the school district like the yellow ones in the US.

Evil Lancastrians steal beloved Yorkshire mascot 

Just please, please, please don’t have Richmond win the Prem. That would be jumping the shark, but an astral shark that hangs out in a particularly high orbit on the far side of Jupiter

No problem! The harvest failed one in every five years during good years pre-industry, and one in every three during the bad. When the Scots and the Irish weren’t burning it, of course. Basically most northern foods are some way of dealing with cooking when you only have half a carrot and a rock.

I know that when I say this I may be stepping on pins and needles, but I don’t like all these people slagging her for breaking up The Beatles.

I think it could have helped if this wasn’t a Premier/Championship League team, and was set at a third or fourth division team in a smaller community

Both of them have made the transition from edgy sketch comedy to prime time light entertainment since their big hits in the early 2000s, so it’s not entirely surprising they’d end up on GBBO. Boosh is definitely considered a cult classic, but still the sort of thing that regularly appears in ‘Best British comedies’…

It’s also a class thing too, I guess. One telltale sign of being painfully middle class is to pronounce all non-English words to perfection, no matter how silly it sounds in conversation, while saying ‘chorizzo’ will get you kicked out of the golf club.

It’s also generally used to refer to something that is too fiddly to be worth bothering with. Eg. ‘It’s too much faff to be getting on with’ or ‘That seems like a lot of faff’, or even ‘stop faffing about’

We don’t know what numbers any of them are pulling because streaming services tend not to release them, but off the back of two seasons of Discovery they greenlit an extra four new Star Trek shows.

Yeah! I thought it was weird that he talked about his being on The Original Series and made no mention that he came back to be in DS9. Even the actors who were in it don’t talk about it!

Milk bread is a thing in the north of England, apparently because milk helps preserve the bread longer when you’re using poor quality flour which was all that was available during famines. I’ve certainly seen it in Yorkshire, but I’m told it’s more of a Lancastrian thing.

How many hours of NFL do you have to watch before you get an hour of play? It’s six. Six hours of commercials and talking.

I don’t get it, seems fine to me!

I mean, Israel is part of UEFA and their teams play in European competitions, so I bet with enough money the Moroccans could fix that...

The Casablanca situation seems way too close to a real life corruption scandal in Premier League football to be a coincidence, so I suspect that Sam is getting set up.

Regarding the ages of some of these churches, it’s not uncommon to find a list of vicars and priests of the church dutifully painted on a wall mounted notice board that stretches back to the 8th and 9th centuries. The fact that there’s been an unbroken line of guys pottering about the same nave and kicking prayer mats…

I mean, not me personally, because my wife is a Georgia Peach and is of course extremely sophisticated and elegant. But I guess it’s the prevailing stereotype in the same way Brits are either snooty aristocrats or red faced soccer hooligans!

That’s a redundant - it’s all cursed

There’s a reason American humor is considered “the best” internationally
