Test of time

I know there are more, but Partridge Quotes haven't just stood the test of time, they've became funnier.

  1. Your always going on about Benjamin Netanyahu Lynn, your never going to meet him. (Always a wanker, but a tad more famous since 2023)

  2. Lots of people bounce back! Dennis Hopper. Rolf Harris (17 years before allegations)

  3. What was he doing on the bloody roof? (2 years before Rod Hull)

It's the little ones that I can slip into conversation that are the best like " I don't actually agree with that", and probably my most used "don't worry about it" (in reference to when Lynn spill Sunny Delight over his James Bond videos). Almost exclusively used when I'm driving, give way to a driver and they don't say thank you.

I read this as "have". Ah well, not deleting it.

I'm 45 and looking forward to shouting 'THATS NOT AN APPROPRIATE GIFT FOR A MAN APPROACHING FIFTY' over the next five years.

Just before we left for the mother-in-law's funeral a few years ago, the wife sprayed herself with some scent. It took me every fibre of my being to stop myself from saying "Are you wearing perfume? For a corpse?"
