What are your irrational prejudices? I have some bonkers ones...

And anovver fing. That TV show, The Repair Shop. Why are they all so nice? They're definitely up to something. And why does everyone who goes on to get their tat fixed have to have a cry?

 

You may be watching the wrong programme. If you want your tat fixed, you have to go to Tattoo Fixers, where your 2cm x 4cm tattoo saying "BOB" (your ex-husband) will be transformed into a giant peacock covering your entire arm, or your rather unfunny tiny little picture of a man weeing somewhere a few centimetres north of your penis will be turned into a Cthulhu covering your entire torso. That is one programme where the punishment in no way fits the crime.

I think we should take a helicopter view of this, preliminary to a deep dive. And don't forget to think outside the box while you're pushing the envelope. We must use synergy for organic growth.

I wish there was a reaction like "hysterical laughter" here.

I had a tattoo by Sketch from Tattoo Fixers, back before the show started. Its since been covered up because it was a bit wonky.

I'd rather stick pins in my eyes than have a tort scratchplate. it's the musical equivalent of having the most beautiful woman in the world wear big frilly bloomers. It can turn the most amazing bass into something that I'd be embarrassed to be seen with in public. It's like putting mayonnaise on a fruit scone. You get the idea 😅

You Sir, are clearly a man of impeccable taste. Will you marry me?

Following on with the theme of appalling Americanisms defiling the Queens English, I mentioned this way back on this thread and it warrants repeating... Tubes (pronounced toobz) when used by folk from this green and unpleasant land referring to valves. Yes, I know it's what those shouty, excitable cool kids from out in the colonies call them on YouToob. But you're not from Minnesota are you, you're from Halifax. So please stop it or I'll be obliged to give you a damn good fisting.

Also worth mentioning that the phrase 'you tube' has a slightly different meaning up here north of Hadrian's Wall...

Being a soft southern Jessie, it's not a phrase I've come across before, would you care to elaborate? Bearing in mind that this is a family show, of course.
