    You know how sometimes on the Fern a thread takes an unexpected turn, and it turns out to be awesome?

    Yeah, that didn't happen here.

    People who like to complain about things on the internet.

    Singers who randomly alter tones and elongate words in anthems at sports events so the crowd can't sing along properly.

    When the whole crowd still waits until the English part of the kiwi anthem to start singing.

    People who put 12 cushions on a bed

    I call them "women".

    Colour me surprised that you see women as mere cushions. Just the ones in the basement?

    No, the people who use them are not usually men.

    I think you'll find there's a large quantity of men who use women.

    People who pronounce "ing" on the end of a word as a "k"

    There's just somethink inherently wrong.

    We had a stunning EA when I worked there, and she was from Essex and used to say "Fanks" with a smile that would melt your heart

    Like James Cordan.

    To be fair to him, I think he realises this. Why else would he be such a smug fluffybunny?

    I saw this which sums him up brilliantly.

    He’s also far and away the least funny guy in this pic.
