What are you talking about? They’re fun, fast reads where you don’t have to engage your brain too much.

Current pet hate is people leaving pen nibs out.

As a fountain pen wanker I thought you meant people removing the nibs and leaving them lying around.
Then I realised that not everyone is a hipster writing implement cunt and you mean clicky pens. I agree either way.

I agree either way. Don't demean the rest of us normal pen users... "clicky pens", how dare you user Lizard, we're not five. |

When the first entry in a planned franchise or series has a subtitle. It's presumptuous and usually sounds clumsy.

My order number in a food place just now was 7001, and when the guy behind the counter called it out, he phrased it as "Seven thousand and zero one"

People who make their lunch at work. Get out of the fucking kitchen and get some Tupperware.
Also people who (usually theatrically) decant water from their perfectly serviceable drinks bottle into a vessel at their desk. Who do you think you are, the fucking queen?

I've got my cold soup in a tupperware. Am I allowed in Lizards kitchen to heat it up?

Heating up stuff or assembling a salad or whatever is fine. If you're getting chopping boards out and roasting stuff for ages then it's Falling Down time

What about using a chopping board to slice some cheese for a sandwich?

Oh so Elaine the puchase order clerk isn't allowed to start cooking her rotisserie chickens at 9.10am now. FASCIST.

What's your viewpoint on toast? Using a chopping board again?

Just eat it uncut. Or use a karate chop.

People are roasting things at work? What kind of fancy appliances do you have in your kitchen? A tandoori oven?

Give it away, give it away, give it away now? How do you find out how heavy a red hot chilli pepper is? |

I'll have to assemble my salad using my hands as a chopping board then.
Mmmmmm, blood dressing.
How tiny are your kitchens in the Shire?!

Several ovens, several microwaves, toasters and George Foreman things. TBF the kitchen being too small for our office doesn't help

Regarding annoying lunch habits are work. When people are eyeballing or asking questions about your lunch because it's nice rather than the boring rivita and cheese they're having.
Let me eat my food in peace Janet while you eat your dry crackers from hell.

Janet is only having ryvita for lunch so she can tell everyone she's on a diet. Before going home and stuffing her face with ice cream.
