'Bang average' Utterly meaningless
"I'm not racist but..."
And why is everything a 'hub' these days.

"For me..."
"Utilize" - is "use" no longer a valid word?
"BLUF"

'Bang average' Utterly meaningless "I'm not racist but..." And why is everything a 'hub' these days. Or a universe. If a film has a sequel it's set in the same universe. So Holby City is in a shared universe with Casualty. Personally, I think of them as being in the same made up town.

"Obligated" and "normalcy" are creeping their way into general British use.

A phrase that is always immediately followed by something racist in nature. To avoid this paradox, I employ the phrase "I am racist depending on context, and..." It confounds your audience, prevents comebacks, and engenders a respect that will eventually allow you to bang their sister without fear of reprisals.

"He's a cunt."
What does that mean? Has that gigantic cunt two legs and two arms? Is the clitoris the head? Is it still a male? Very strange.

Would love to know what it means. Think he'd been watching one of those wannabe British Gangster films

I find Mark Kermode guilty for that tautology.
