Durham General Chat Thread

Yes, I was walking along the Baliey today, and I have glasses... my hair isn't that short though but it's usually tied back.

I am being stalked *hides under bed*

I'm scared of Becca.

Don't worry, so long as you never ask a question without doing a search then you will be fine (Otherwise, she will eat your soul )

I'm scared of Becca.

Becca, if I tell you that I longish hair, blue eyes, and wear a black coat, could you track me down....

Mebbe...

All these rumours ae true.

You have a week :P

*puts on spy costume*

*runs to Aidan's*

Things like that infuriate me too. I know they shouldn't, but if you are doing a final year presentation you should at least know how to pronounce the words you are using! Especially if it is a persons name.

Haha that reminds me of a presentation that this group of people made in one of my geography seminars. They banged it together at last minute as they were a useless group of idiots.

Anyway, they started going on about the bourgeoise, but were pronouncing it the "bor-gee-oh-see" (that's my best dictionary style pronouncing thingy) - and the "gee" bit is with the "g" sound, not the "j" sound. Anyway they kept saying it and most people were chuckling.

But they had gone first because they claimed they "Had another seminar which clashed with that one so had to leave early"....as soon as they had left, the lecturer turned to us all and went "I hope you all know how to pronounce bourgeoise?" and we all laughed haha
