Shit you just learned (probably from the internet.)

You know it does. It also has amazing, must have suspension you’ll only learn about just before you sell it.

Well played, in recent years I’ve also learned to avoid absolutely all “news” sources, and most of social media most of the time, and instead concentrate on irrelevancies like Space Stuff That I Mostly Don’t Understand - it’s mind-bogglingly amazing out there, and the only remotely depressing thing about it is that I’ll never Star Trek the fuck out of it.

"The Irish Supreme court has ruled that the bread served at Subway – a US sandwich food chain with branches in more than 100 countries – cannot be defined as bread.

Under Ireland’s Value-Added Tax Act of 1972 it cannot even be defined as a staple food, according to the Irish Independent, because it contains too much sugar…"

Chortle!

Fairly standard fair in the North West. Meat and Potato Pie Muffin was my regular lunch when in six form in Middleton.

Whats funny is if you try and watch the video with auto subtitles. The Youtube AI can’t cope.

Have you tangled with Smack barm pey wet? What was it like? I need to vicariously experience this otherworldly delight.

No only potato fitter on a muffin. Wet does seem to be a Wigan only thing.

Our local chippy did do deep fried pizzas. You 5 inch size ones you can get from Iceland. I was never tempted.

Pudding chips and gravy though I could eat every day.

Is this the baby’s head thing?

baby heads, chips and gravy is fantastic, people thought I was making it up when I came back down south telling them about it.

Have never been able to find decent gravy in a chippy down south :frowning:

The most reliable indicator of the north south divide is gravy in chippies

Pronounced Babbies yed. Meat pudding. So called because the top of the pudding is soft, like the fontanelle.

Pea Wet: the runny juice from the mushy pea pan.

Or:

Smack barm pea wet

A sexual act in Wigan where you get the juice left over from mushy peas, rub it on your cock and smack someone in the face with it. They usually then lick it off.

Ey lad, do you fancy a smack barm pea wet tonight?

You bloody bet I do lad. Get the peace juice ready.

You mean you have never been able to find gravy n a decent chippy down south.

Heathen food

Outstanding @Rob998 this is very much the insight I was hoping for. I appreciate the potential open goal apparent in my initial interest.
More cruel minds may have testified the effects of a smacked out Babbies pea wet was akin to being in wind tunnel of Amyl nitrate whilst performing the ‘Russian bobsled’ on Kiki Dee … I would have crumpled under the weight of envy.
