What a lovely thing to say. Bet he was a good husband too.

Can I upvote this twice?

Awwwww. Too cute.

He's a therapy human for the dog.

This is how it should be.

That’s what really gave me the poos when my kids’ school started awarding points for every kid in “full school uniform” - with the winning class getting iceblocks at the end of the term. So, if I screw up with the laundry, or can’t get to the shops to buy new socks that week or if don’t want to fork out for a new pair of pants in literally the last 2 weeks of school, my kids’ class are disadvantaged? No - not fair. Not fair at all.

Or when scrolling to the right year takes three times as long as if they'd just let you type your date of birth. Or worst of all, when it asks you your occupation from a huge drop down list and you have to keep guessing what they think your job should be called.

If it's a website I've designed, it's United Kingdom and the first entry on the list. However you may need to start looking under D as well, for Disunited Kingdom!

it's unbelievably hard. like a I male or female...

That could be a *much* more interesting experience: these online forms could be all in Cymreag. — edit: It’s Cymraeg of course. My bad. Damn vowels, consonants say so much more.

I only have that problem with two letters for my country and that's already annoying

It is normally United Kingdom and you end up scrolling down to 'U' until you realise that United Kingdom is right up the top of the list

Scrolling for days… ugh

Oh, I never thought of that.

Extra confusing if they have multiple listings - like USPS (England and United Kingdom x2)

I still can't keep track of all the different names for a geographical area that's smaller than Texas.

Nice problem...

Try living as an expat in Italy. :)

To those who think "nation" and "country" are synonymous. (Hint: England is not a nation.)

The girl before you was the epitome of chutzpah.

The love we all should aim for

Be thankful for what you've got. My dachshunds nick my duvet. I'm left with a small strip some nights.

My previous landlord once lowered my rent by 20% when he found out that I had bern laid off.

So where on earth did all of that water go??

I wasn't the only one then. Good. I was thinking, 'Why would you just drop your food on the bed like that??'

that is a global annoyance, not just a british issue

And I hear the föök-ing in my head so clearly 😂

Great name Roisin. I understand it’s pronounced ‘Rowsheen’ - beautiful

Both!

This’ll date me, but I genuinely remember when I first had my licence and being a poor student and putting totals like AUD $1.80 or $2.67 into my tank and using the car for another day.

Minutes 60 down to 3 count perfectly, Minutes 2 & 1 each take about a quarter of an hour.

No British person says "apartment", it's a "flat" this side of the pond

Hahahhaa... so relatable ;)

I felt that deep in my soul.

Friends of ours named their dog Steve and I’m like I don’t know how to feel about that. My names Steve.

Well I'm an idiot. For a second, I thought he was hitting on her.

Did you at least get the weights for the Bubble level???

Every street needs a binfluencer.

Look, these are from Britain. During our summers, you are more likely to get trench foot than sunburn. Summer wear is a clear plastic poncho. When a large, white, fiery ball appears in the sky, it has to be announced on the news that it is, in fact, the sun.

im not British but aparently i am.

oh my god, I read this and then immediately had someone come to my desk. I took one look at them, had to look away to compose myself, and then was able to talk after like 10 awkward seconds.

Way to stay minimalist

Absolutely. A tube of chips can only be consumed inside watching telly.

I still do that when my kids leave because my wife won't let me run alongside the car until it's going too fast to keep up.

We're on a crowded little island. There's always something going around.

When I was little, Apple Jacks cereal was more expensive than any of the others. Being very poor, I wasn't allowed to have them. I spent the night at Grandma's once, not long after Mom and I had argued over the cereal. Grandma drove me three miles one way to the grocery store just to buy me a box of Apple Jacks.

We once had a kid named Barry in Prep class which is 1st yr Primary / Elementary school, so aged 5 and I’m like ‘Barry?? No way a 5 yr old is named Barry!’ Minimum 65 years old to be a Barry.
