wtf does er indoors even mean?

her indoors, i.e. the wife.

anachronistic britisher talk.

"the little woman" eg

Dennis Waterman & George Cole - What Are We Gonna Get 'Er Indoors?, got to #21 in December 1983.

Cole's son Pete Doherty went on to have a minor indie career btw.

Rich talk coming from a man whose country is doing its best to eradicate adverbs.

dom id like to believe you were saving this gif for my 'breakout' moment

adverbs are some weak ass shit--use a verb, limey

Some serious hostility on ilx today.

"today"

See, he just took an adverb and presented it as a noun. Typical illiterate Yank.

Ach, it's too late to stir shit properly innit

stir indoors

^ hair trigger

The milquetoast era is over. Although for an American Max King does look kinda English.

I like that the inverted look poll drew twice as many voters as the "do you speak to other humans?" poll.

it'd be interesting to see how reactions to the site would be different if it'd been written by jeff foxworthy and was all redneck jokes.

2 for 1 special:

I come from a proud tradition of underachievers. My mom started college at 15 and was fluent in French. Never had a full-time job in her life, and now with copious amounts of childless free time, her empty nest lifestyle is about as interesting as ... an episode of Empty Nest. My uncle graduated top of his class in engineering at MIT, had tons of opportunities to make it rich, but he lives an admirably humble lifestyle; his long-term SO is a wealthy heiress worth over 70 million, and he refuses to marry her for that reason. The list goes on and on.

I'm proudly carrying the torch, and what a brilliant flame it is. You look back and think, "wait a second, if I actually made an effort, I'd be doing ok!" Escapism, kiddultism, fear of failure, and general laziness seem like common themes. Also add strings of failed friendships and relationships in there, too. Being a loser rules.

anyone who would call themselves an "underachiever" is probably severely overestimating their potential

Sometimes, I'm sure. I think the people who do acknowledge that they're underachievers, though, have actual sources for their assumption ... like, I never studied for the SATs, but when I took them I got like, 99.999999999th percentile. Look at me now, you're dripping with envy.

i just want to point out - for the overachievers in the room - that 99.999999999th percentile means you got a better score than at least 9,999,999,999 other people who took the SAT

thats hard
