Traffic Jam

This is sometimes found in supermarkets where someone, usually female, with an arse so enormous it makes the average two-seater look small, shoving a trolley piled high with junk food, suddenly stops. This may be because she’s suddenly gone AWTF or it could be because she’s trying to decide whether to have ten or twelve krispy kremes to help her recover from all this strenuous shopping. She blocks the aisle, traffic builds up behind and in front of her, the fat cow is deaf to polite requests to move or even, “Get out of the way you fucking mammoth!” The result is gridlock and it usually takes half an hour and several members of staff to get things sorted out. See also Road Block.
“I was shopping in ASDA and got caught in a traffic jam.”
What did you do?”
“Dumped the trolley and went to TESCO.”

WOFS

English acronym standing for Waste Of Fucking Space. Can be Waste Of Flipping Space if you want to be a bit more polite but is used to describe people who are just that. The ones that seem to have no useful contribution to make to the human race or anything else and make you wonder just where evolution went wrong.
"Malcolm's just been sat on his ass all day, hasn't done a fucking thing except feed his face and drink tea. He hasn't so much as lifted a finger even though the rest of us are run ragged."
"What a WOFS!"

Workplace Discrimination

Workplace discrimination is based on the belief that some people are better at some types of work than others. This is not solely attributable to employers but can be present in members of the workforce as well. It can be based on race, gender, religion, ethnicity, physical or mental disability, age, sexual orientation, and gender identity. Differences in earnings or the work carried out which come from differences in qualifications or responsibilities are not due to workplace discrimination. Workplace discrimination can be intended and involve unfair treatment of the people in a particular group or be unintended, yet still create unfavourable impact for that group.

While it may be due to ignorance, prejudice and stupidity this does not excuse it and it should be corrected. If it is deliberate and planned discrimination against a particular group it can be the sign of a toxic workplace so best find a new job, you may be next.
“I see the feminists are claiming workplace discrimination in favour of men in the fields of medicine and dentistry.”
“Funny how they never claim it in the field of sewer maintenance.”

Ambulance Chasing Lawyers

The lowest form of animal life; they are the arseholes who use the law in ways for which it was not intended. Some of these scumbags, quite literally, follow ambulances carrying people, involved in traffic accidents, to hospital in order to get them to make a claim against the other party involved. In Britain, these bastards use human rights law to prevent paedophile rapists from being deported back to their country of origin. They’re the ones who act on behalf of terrorists to pursue damages against troops who were doing their duty under incredibly difficult circumstances. Why do they do it? For money, they cynically exploit the law that is supposed to protect people to make themselves rich. They are vermin and should be treated as such.
“An online petition has been set up to make it legal to kill ambulance chasing lawyers!”

Plymouth

Britain’s Ocean City in the South-West of England, Plymouth has the largest Naval Base in Western Europe. It can appear grey and dull, due to the rebuilding after WWII; the damage was huge and over1200 civilians killed. The ruin of Charles Church remains as a memorial to those killed and injured at that time. Despite a lack of investment by both Central and Local Government change is happening and, if you take the trouble to look, you will find a thriving arts, culture and music, vibrant nightlife and pubs and bars selling everything from ciders from Devon and Cornwall (they’ll knock your block off) to the best cocktails and champagne.

Plymouth people are accepting of strangers, polite and friendly, ask for help and you’ll get it. They are rightly proud of their city and the major part it played in two World Wars, so don’t diss it. Yes, Plymouth has within its boundaries a number of the peculiar life-form known as a chav but far fewer, per head of population, than London, Birmingham, Manchester or Liverpool.

You’ll find the National Marine Aquarium there, a house that was built in the 1300s, excellent hotels and restaurants and many more things of interest. If you are from the USA, it’s the port the Pilgrim Fathers sailed and there are the places where they slept, had their last religious meeting and the bakery that sold them their last fresh bread, Britain’s oldest working bakery. So come and see what Plymouth has to offer.
I’m going to visit Plymouth, might even move there. Well, if it’s good enough for Chris Dawson, it’ll do me.

CRAFT

It’s an acronym standing for Can’t Remember A Fucking Thing. It’s usually used to describe embarrassment at being unable to remember someone (CRAFT moment); going onstage as the lead in the latest theatrical performance and your mind goes completely blank (CRAFT situation); the next morning after a night when you got pissed as a fart and woke up in bed cuddling a traffic cone and a string of fairy lights wound round your prick.
“Where did you go after we left the pub?”
Dunno, CRAFT.”

Stay Woke

First used in 1938 by Huddie William Ledbetter ‘Lead Belly’ in Scotsboro Boys. The phrase was repeated, by a union official, in 1940 to J Saunders Redding, who used it in an academic article in 1942. When Redding wrote “stay woke”, he meant stay alert for injustice, discrimination, prejudice, unfairness, to anyone, irrespective of race, colour, religion, sexual orientation or anything else.
When Redding said "Stay Woke!" He meant is as an injunction, a wake-up call, not the entry to a club or a fashion accessory.
