Deaf and dumb sign language has regional accents.

Do you mean BSL, British Sign Language

The numbers on toaster settings are actually minutes, not 'levels of brown-ness' or whatever the fuck I was thinking they were.

Do pork faggots have levels of brown-ness?

No I mean all sign languages intended for communication with/by deaf/dumb people. Or do we have to use euphemisms for those terms these days?

I dont think 'deaf and dumb' has been an acceptable term for quite some time.

Why?

Why do you think?

the rev counters on cars are not mph

Would you like to be labelled dumb?

I don't think terms like impairment or disability are euphemisms but they ARE free of the pejorative overtones of the words I grew up with like 'dumb' and 'cripple.'

Likewise, down's syndrome and cerebral palsy are a bit of a mouthful but if it was my child that was affected I don't think I'd want them to be referred to in the old-fashioned way - insults that I learned on the playground.

Then again, I can see the logic of not referring to disability-free people as 'able-bodied' but 'non-disabled' is definitely a euphemism!

Would you like to be labelled a Mute ?.

They're just attached to a crude thermostat, unravels to a certain point with the heat and triggers the "cancel" circuit.

No timers or brown-ness settings.

Light years is a measure of distance not time. And pisses me off when people get it wrong.

It will take them light years to get it into their thick skulls!

I get pissed off when people incorrectly start a sentence with 'And'.

And I do too!

Sorry that's being a spelling and punctuation idiot tbh as never got any of it and being dyslexic doesn't help. I am good at maths and science though

I love you.

That your nose and your ears are composed of the same erective tissue as your dick.

Churchhill's 'we will fight them on the beaches' was never broadcast. It was read out in parliament, but they didn't record them in those days. The speech you'll have heard that often turns up on war fillums was one of many he recorded years after the war, as part of his self-aggrandisement.

In a similar vein, Kirk never once said "Beam me up, Scotty".
But the out-of-character William Shatner has indeed said it.

BA Baracus never said "Pity the Fool" in the A-Team.

....and as you grow older they are the only parts of your body that continue to grow, even if you live till a 100.
Your ears and nose I mean, not your todger

Poor Joel Porter.

World War II didn't officially end until 1990 when Russia, Britain, America, France and Germany signed the Treaty on the Final Settlement with Respect to Germany!!!!

The last execution by Guillotine in France was in 1977 and was still the official method of execution until 1981!!!!

France, the country with the most widely acclaimed cuisine in the world, was the last European country to adopt the potato.

In Tokyo, a bicycle is faster than a car for most trips of less than 50 minutes!

I think wec can allow him that

And they still can't do mash properly
