37 The Rules — Sausage wallets

October 22nd, 2007 · 4 Comments

Sausage walletWhere to begin in a show in which Rhylla at various times utters the words “genital wart”, “pap smear” and “explosive diarrhoea”? And by-the-by Steven’s continuing his campaign to get old favourites like “bounder” and “sausage wallet” back into everyday speech.

But on a manners front, and that is what we’re all about, we talk about disciplining other people’s children, the amount of disclosure needed around a one-night-stand, bad friends and all sorts of other nonsense. You’ll really need to listen to find out what.

    Hello Steven and Miss Rhylla,

    I just finished listening to the latest show. Stellar episode! I recently broke off a friendship of 20 years for reasons similar to the ones you mentioned toward the end of the show. It’s hard to “cut somebody loose” as Steven says, but sometimes it’s harder not to.

    On a completely different note, I would like to pose a question to the show. You’ve talked about Text Messages before, but this is a more specific question: If I send a text message to you, is it rude for you to immediately phone me back instead of responding with a text? I am of the opinoin that communication should be kept in tact unless otherwise noted. For example, I do not phone somebody in response to an email. If I get a text, I text back.

    What do you think?

    Keep up the great work. I look forward to The Rules every month.

    Cheers!

    […] I’m pretty much screaming that I’m an over-educated pompous sausage wallet by taking the words of an 18th century noblemen as my creed. (Using the word “creed” […]

    re “half-birthdays”. I would suggest offering half-birthday presents. Like a chess set with only the white pieces. Or a CD cut in two. Best to avoid offering a pet….

    Lurid facts and techniques. I am undecided what else to think about this situation, in all honesty.
