The use of the phrase "oftentimes". The times part is superfluous! It's creeping in to wider use all the time thanks to continued Seppo exposure.

Total misnomer for an ironically named product.

Soon to follow VanMoof, but suspect McLaren are not waiting in the wings with a rescue this time

Well, write it down boy ......
The ad for Trivago with Jurgen Klopp (ex Liverpool manager, m'lud) in it. Seems to be on in every ad break.
As if multi millionaire Jurgen Klopp would stay in a place for £130 a night.

People (perfectly able bodied), who, when you motion them to go past your car, or cross in front of you, then proceed to do it really slowly and with no sense of urgency.
Come on people quid pro quo.

I find that most people away from big city centres tend to walk pretty slowly. I easily overtake 90% of the people walking in front of me.

But yes - it is a bit annoying when slowcoaches get in the way. I was repeatedly blocked by a dawdling, meandering couple in Aldi the other day. They seemed to be oblivious to the shopper jams that they were creating.

But of slack there chaps! There are some reasons why slow moving and teetering happen.

See you when you are 80.

The funny thing is that the advert is running world wide. And unsurprisingly not many people in USA and other countries know who he is. The internet is full of people wondering about the guy with weird teeth.
And yes, he is very unlikely to be paying £130 for a hotel room.

Now I know who it is - a bit crazy of them (from a marketing angle) if it's true.
