There's so many google ads for batteries. Batteries batteries batteries, they say. Like anyone uses batteries any more!

I use batteries quite often. I use rechargeable batteries in my camera, but am increasingly tempted by Duracell rechargable batteries.

My brother doesn't have rechargable batteries in his x-box controller. It's the most incredible thing. They run out, then he has to wait for new batteries. This is not the future anyone was promised.

I don't like it when my cod is too battery, it makes me feel funny in the middle.

The batter is the best bit! I found out recently that in the frozen North you can go to a fish and chip shop and ask for chips and scraps and they give you chips and scraps of batter that have gathered in the fish area! It's my dream come true! If I could eat a battered fish with little to no fish I'd die happy.

Well. You'd die happy eventually.
You can ask for scraps anywhere, it's against the law to refuse you. Like asking for water in a pub or a golden apple from a magic tree.

You should go to Scotland then - they batter just about everything there. Battered Mars bars, Battered burgers... Maybe the further north you travel, the more people are inclined to batter things. This theory may require further testing.

There was a place near me that was doing a battered entire Christmas dinner (this was around Christmastime, would you credit it) which I think sounds like heaven on earth. But I have to suppress my cravings for things like that because if I indulged them I would literally end up like one of those people they make humiliating documentaries about, all carried places by a flatbed truck normally used to transport baby whales.

There was this one freak show programme on the ever classic Channel 5 about a fat lad getting a stomach band, and when he stood up in preparation for the baby-whale flatbed transportation device, you could see his bum and torso had molded into the shape of his sofa. I wouldn't have been surprised if his hands had molded into the shape of a playstation control pad/Wotsit shovel.

That's good. It's fun to laugh at pie-eating fat people because of the sense of moral superiority. I saw him on that tour! It was the funniest show I have ever seen, fact fans.
I did feel sorry for that sofa-bummed fat lad because normally those shows either end with the person dead or thin but he was neither, maybe some 20 stone lighter but still obscenely, eye-wateringly fat, and he was just a kid disgustingly spoiled by a cursed up mother. Terribly sad.

He was a lady part though.

Ha! Lady part! I was trying to see if you were censoring stuff. I meant, obviously, lady part.

Ssh shh! You can't swear or we'll all go to jail. I can't believe I looked at the banned words list literally five minutes ago then said the eff word anyway. What a douche.

I'm afraid I have to be kind of strict about the swearing, because I picked the first messageboard people in a google search, and it turns out they'll delete the board for the tiniest thing. So no bad words that make the baby Jesus cry.

OK, we'll have to set up a substitute list hosted somewhere else. Then we'll know what everything means, but it won't be offensive to the layman. or fat person.

A complete Unt? Unt isn't offensive.
