Did U just call me a slag bruv?

We have one of those He's shorter than me, and I'm only 5ft. He's also tried to model every aspect of his personality on Liam Gallagher, to the point he only wears Pretty Green label shirts and has fondness for attacking people's cars (probably because he never could pass his own test). Can often be seen swaggering about in his bucket hat and John Lennon glasses threatening to burn people's houses down!
Good cuz U is dead otherwise innit yoof.No...
OK... [walks backwards]Good cuz U is dead otherwise innit yoof.
Years ago on QI, Andy Hamilton (comedian/comedy writer etc) was saying how when he and his mates were around 12-14 ish, they had this 'hard man walk' that they did.
Some of the other panellists didn't seem to know (or admit) what he was on about, but I did.
He said, well Liam Gallagher is still doing it - and he's 44.
Niiice old skool moon walk cuz U 'get me though?!.OK... [walks backwards]
I used to work with someone who was a real narcissist. He'd ride his motorbike to work and then strut through the foyer and head to his office in full biker gear - lots of black and silver leather and a silver helmet with dark visor. He'd march along the corridors, stiff legged, elbows out, fists clenched, clearly thinking he was the bee's knees.'walks like he's carrying two rolls of carpet' blokes in a tracksuit.
Wear the ring on the necklace. Problem solved.How I wish! It's been like that my whole life, rings don't like to stay on me.
It's ok because I am not fond of them anyway, I love necklaces.
OMG, how clever! Why didn't I think of that?Wear the ring on the necklace. Problem solved.

Yes. It was on an old episode of QI.He was 44 some time ago.

And yes, he's still doing it at 51.
That's how you walk in motorbike leathers. They're designed to be comfortable on the bike, not for strolling to your desk.I used to work with someone who was a real narcissist.

However, as one person put it, "He walks like Robocop trying to hold in a very wet shit."
He was such an egomaniac if he thought he'd get away with it he would. We reckoned that all the mirrors in his house had holes cut in them so he could French kiss his reflectionThat's how you walk in motorbike leathers. They're designed to be comfortable on the bike, not for strolling to your desk.
Would you all rather he'd stripped off and changed on the car park?![]()
Put any rings you have on a nec.....How I wish! It's been like that my whole life, rings don't like to stay on me.

I'd say though, as a matter of courtesy you should take your bike helmet off as soon as you are off the bike. A lot of shops won't serve customers unless they take the helmet off.That's how you walk in motorbike leathers. They're designed to be comfortable on the bike, not for strolling to your desk.

There were places at my work where people could get changed and the other bikers did but this clown just had to be the centre of attention.I'd say though, as a matter of courtesy you should take your bike helmet off as soon as you are off the bike.

It could be anyone in there!
I can't think of any other fashion that obscures the entire face and head so completely. We even used to ask people to drop their masks during Covid so we could verify identity.Been a biker for 60 years and never been asked to remove my helmet or refused service,
there are lots of fashion or other types of headgear just as restrictive, attitudes are likely
different in other parts.
And definitely in banks. Well, when we had banks anyway.I'd say though, as a matter of courtesy you should take your bike helmet off as soon as you are off the bike. A lot of shops won't serve customers unless they take the helmet off.
I found that to be one of the more amusing bizarre situations in lockdown - that to enter the bank you had to dress like a bank robber. My stepdad forgot his mask one day and Lloyds wouldn't let him in until he wrapped a bandana around his face....And definitely in banks. Well, when we had banks anyway.
As if a would be robber would take the crash helmet off anyway.And definitely in banks. Well, when we had banks anyway.
Growing older, I've had less and less harassment from creepy men.

I believe I was harassed because I looked a bit simple and easy to take advantage of. No make-up, nail varnish, trendy hairstyle, alluring clothing or high heels. Mainly just jeans and teeshirts.I don't ever recall being harassed by creepy men. Obviously I have the kind of face that says "Don't mess with me" despite the fact that I'm a non-confrontational pussy cat really.
I've got a woman trying to harass me occasionally in the building I live in. I'm not the only bloke she's full on with either. She's already told me she's celibate (I didn't ask or want to know) but she does enjoy occasional oral sex (I didn't ask or want to know).I believe I was harassed because I looked a bit simple and easy to take advantage of.

Or perhaps they thought I was a hippy who believed in freee luuuurve, maaaan, at 15 or so.
You need a bigger bedroom cabinet, made of solid wood.I've got a woman trying to harass me occasionally in the building I live in. I'm not the only bloke she's full on with either.

My flatmate tells me she used to bring blokes back from bars, give them a blowjob then phone my flatmate to come round hers to get rid of them "Because they were getting to amorous" ... so she's a hunter and manipulative. She tried to start an argument with me the second time I met her more some made up reason so I nipped that bs in the bud.
her: You've got a dominant personality haven't you
me: Yes
her: So have I!
me: Good for you. Lets not piss each other off
I try to avoid her but she spotted me in the shop across the road yesterday evening.
her: Come here
me: Come here, you want to talk to me?
... the added advantage was I was now under a CCTV camera.
Then she started babbling about something about my flatmate, I said my goodbyes, wished her well and went back to the flats.
Inevitably she was knocking at our flat door not long after so I pushed the chair against my bedroom door. Don't get me wrong, she's good looking but she's as mad as a box of frogs.
She came back a second time by which point the chair had been replaced with my bedside cabinet. The third time last night, she decided to loudly knock on my bedroom door but not say anything which was creepy so I told her to go away because I was trying to sleep.
A couple of weeks before, she tried to open my bedroom door and just walk in but I'd already pushed my chair against it. She's got a fiery temper so she probably gives amazing BJ's but she's nuts.
It's very big and made of solid wood. She isn't a physical threat to me. I just don't want her walking in. Not even for a BJ. The saying where I live is "Never stick your dick in crazy".You need a bigger bedroom cabinet, made of solid wood.
