What the ruckus wrong with saying "at night"?

It's less letters and less effort and you sound like less of a cunt.

Completely agree, makes my stomach turn.

JustJoinedRightNow · 08/01/2019 06:04

Yep totally agree.

On a night time? I've never heard that!

I've heard 'of an evening' which I thought sounded funny. Maybe a tad arseholey if said seriously.

Well I say on a night, and of an evening, maybe it's just a colloquialism, perhaps you say things that others find odd?

Oddsocksandmeatballs · 08/01/2019 06:15

Isn't it just regional differences in language?

AGHHHH · 08/01/2019 06:17

I'm sure I do say a lot of odd things, yes. I think anyone could find something strange about any variation of a language.

Though I wasn't calling people who say it arseholes, just that it sounds a little arseholey. Which it does, to me.

AGHHHH · 08/01/2019 06:21

I imagine it's just as 'regional' as something like 'need fed' or 'need gone'. Those are actually awful.

Never heard anyone say say ‘on a night time’. Sounds odd.

pictish · 08/01/2019 06:35

‘I was sat’

No, you were sitting. Desist with your wrongness immediately.

'Need gone' is fucking awful as well.
