Title: Middle Class Walkers?
Post by: shurt on November 28, 2018, 09:45:31 pm
I bought some Maille Crushed Black Pepper and Basil Aioli and it was lovely.

I sometimes worry what I've become.

P.s. Before anyone says this should be in Food and Drink my vision for the thread was anything goes so fill your boots. Anyone???

I thought this thread was about middle aged folk wearing plus fours, red socks and hiking boots :D

Oh dear, that's auto correct for you. Can someone with the power please change it to wankers...

Even my attempts to rage against the inevitability of my slide to the middle have been slid to the middle. To make matters worse I can't stand walking

I went to watch Peterloo at Hebden Bridge Picture House last night. That's a double whammy of middle classness right there (if I could pretend to have enjoyed it I could have made it a hat trick)

Oh right. I've also heard quin-oh-a. Good to get an official verdict.

Am I alone in thinking it looks like sawdust and tastes of dry nothing...

It’s a poor alternative to chips regardless....

...or rice, or more or less anything else, most things other than quinoa also have the benefit of being about a tenth as expensive as quinoa, and nicer.

I have an old friend I haven't seen for years but I'm still connected with on social media who regularly goes beserk on Facebook at people posting samey stuff like "It's snowing!" or cliched pics of their kids. He seems completely unamware of the irony of his Instagram account on which literally every picture is of his left hand holding a (slightly) different expensive bottle of red wine.
