So we were talking about relationships at work and I said - I can't believe I've been with my partner for 5 years, that shit cray"

My colleague gave me this look Confused and said don't ever say that again and then laughed.

Aibu to think I can say what I want.

op

As do I, yes it has.

It's still a hilarious cringeworthy thing to say.

Off point but I find everyone saying you shouldn't be talking about your private life at work a bit weird. I've never worked in a work place where people don't discuss their personal lives at a superficial level at some point or another Confused

Sorry you're ill Badvoc.

I'm just being lazy, so I suppose I will go and get dressed.

Hope you feel better soon.

Thank you x

Isn't a yolo a type of choccy biscuit?...

Lj8893 · 30/03/2014 15:47

That's a yoyo.

Yolo means you only live once.....I think it was created by the ever inspirational Justin beiber.

"Off point but I find everyone saying you shouldn't be talking about your private life at work a bit weird."

Who is this everybody. I can only find one post where the poster says you shouldn't be talking about your private life at work, Alisvolatpropiis.

(sorry, I'm obviously a bit statistically obsessed today Smile )

NachoAddict · 30/03/2014 15:51

Oh dear op.

shakes head sadly.

Alisvolatpropiis · 30/03/2014 15:54

adish

I may have been exaggerating Grin

Ronmione · 30/03/2014 15:54

You've got to be over 30 to have been around the first time init was said

DownstairsMixUp · 30/03/2014 15:59

YABU I'm sorry I just cringe at anyone over 18 speaking like this. Bitches be trippin, that shit is cray, just no. Hate it.

Bunbaker · 30/03/2014 15:59

I grew up in south London in the 1960s and 1970a. Everyone said innit.

Bunbaker · 30/03/2014 15:59

1970s

KeatsiePie · 30/03/2014 16:00

Tears in my eyes from laughing. Reading this thread has made me late for church. I couldn't tear myself away and now I'm going be fastwalking in late with damp hair like a slacker again.

We probably don't say slacker anymore huh. Look, OP, you should not say "that shit cray" unless you can't help it. It's clear from the diction of your other posts that you can help it. If it doesn't come out 100% naturally that is how you know it is a very, very bad idea.

Picnic that was the funniest post I have ever read.

OwlCapone · 30/03/2014 16:04

Yes you can say what you want I suppose. If you want to look like a knob.

This.

Are you David Brent?

BackforGood · 30/03/2014 16:10

Excellent.

Mintyy at least you only have to worry about the passengers on the 185, on the 2 from Norwood the drivers have been known to smoke weed whilst driving and start fist fights with the passengers.

GrumpyInYorkshire · 30/03/2014 16:41

OP, do you sell drugs on the corners of West Baltimore?

FanFuckingTastic · 30/03/2014 16:47

I feel old. Very old. I like real words.

Let'sgotothebeach, that made me laugh out loud (or should that be lol?)

Fairyliz · 30/03/2014 17:05

Op come back please. We need to know:-
1 How old you are
2 What job you do
3 Some idea of your level of seniority

(Please let the op work in local government that would be well wicked)

Linguini · 30/03/2014 17:07

"I'm actually higher up than she is"

Must be huge stilettos! Or should that be 'pimpin'

Can i just ask WHO has actually heard Kanye West say 'that shit cray' or are we assuming he speaks like this because he is a rapper, black or american?

Lj8893 · 30/03/2014 17:16

It's a lyric in one of his songs. "That shit cray" is all his doing!
