to want to ( lightly) strangle anyone who calls a fee paying school INDIE

[MaureenCognito]

bunch of knobs

But it's practical when you need to put it in the slot when leaving the carpark. I need two hands.to drive. Why does this make me a knob.?

I put mine in my mouth and salivate all over it.

It my ticket fgs I don't offer it round afterwards

Is it the shortening of the words that annoys you then? Or would "independent" school also get you strangled?

It's my property and im going to mark my territory with some DNA!

Indie is a type of music. Indie school makes me think everybody is wearing DMs and shuffling around peeping out from behind overly long fringes...

Yanbu.

I've only ever heard it on here. In RL everyone refers to them as private or public if that's the case.

What about 'comp'? Always makes me think of Grange Hill!

Thought that term was only used on the 11plus forum (disclaimer: - I do not contribute to that forum).

Have never heard it used in everyday conversation!

Lol. My mum says comp. and hols. And teachers are masters
