And seriously, THAT WAS A JOKE!!

Unfortunately that seems to be necessary these days...

... some people take a ribbing as abuse.

I thought that ribbing was something they did to make condoms more interesting.

DM, perhaps you're thinking of "studding".....lol.

Yeah...Don't let the truth get in the way of a good racist claim

^ Seriously, a question about Banana Pudding has gone to arguments over curry, custard, USA vs UK, condoms and now racism....... wow!!

Sateeb.... being a "foreigner" for the majority of my life through travel and work, I know racism very well. I just don't play the card as some do.... no offense.

[EDIT] Curried custard??? Hmmm.....

[sateeb]

None taken...My question was aimed at Chas and Takiab...I just mis-quoted the wrong post.The figure of ethnic minorities in Manchester is actually 19%

My question has nothing to do with being "PC" at all.....anyways .back to topic huh?

The use of the word by Brits of it being a PROPER something is the irritant, it might be proper to you but shite to others , proper is a pompous word

This Yank has slowly learned about Brits and their culture in the last 3 1/2 years. Seems to me Brits use 'proper' two ways in the context you describe:
- The way a specific thing is in Britain ,
- The only way a specific thing should be done, and that's how we do it in Britain.
I find the latter to be an irritant only when one won't shut up about it. But never seen it as pompous, just ethnocentric.

There are a number of other uses - e.g. "a proper Charlie"


This has to be thread of the year so far...

Pray tell good sir, what are the others? Are any often used when referring to bananas or pudding? I've heard some men give the nickname 'Charlie' to a body part. Is that of what you speak?
