Oh sheeeeeet!

Yeah, that doesn't look good. But is there much of an overlap between Foggers and Daily Edge Readers? Hopefully not.

[Trigger]

Oh phewwww

[Mam of 4]

Oh for God's sake my % is way off !

[E.N.]

Which is good news for Hyblaeus, ari and Barns...

Oh phewwww

Oh phukkkk

[Trigger]

Like I mean as a kid I would have said Santy, but presumed we were all grown ups here, apart from Buile obvs...

[Leg End Reject]

[nothing]

Sigh.

[Mam of 4]

I love it when other players get a worse result than I do

[Leg End Reject]

Like I mean as a kid I would have said Santy, but presumed we were all grown ups here, apart from Buile obvs...

I went with what I said as a child because it isn't something I really talk about now.

Bugger!

Oops, totals messed up. Will update later

I still say Santy, always thought it was more a Cork thing

[nothing]

Back to mid table mediocrity, where I belong

[BuileBeag]

Well fuck!!!

[Purple Mountain]

I still say Santy, always thought it was more a Cork thing

It's a country thing.
I bet it's all city slick boys and girls in FOG.
Santy all the way!
I'm still 1 point ahead of Seph though..

[quickbeam]

I’m from Dublin and I think it was Santy in my day. But then I grew up.

I still say Santy, always thought it was more a Cork thing

It's common enough in Cork alright, I definitely heard Santy when I was a kid but it didn't really stick with me. I'd always say Santa even if I was talking to young kids (which, given how terrible I am with kids, I try to avoid doing as much as possible anyway!)

[Trigger]

Where did you find that image of me working!

[BuileBeag]

Where did you find that image of me working!

Necro!

[quickbeam]

I probably would use Santy if I was talking to a Santa-believing child. Though it’s been years and years since that has even happened. Like Homer, I avoid that experience as much as possible.

[ShaneU]

[Sawduck]

I knew I'd forget this someday, busy day today but I would have answered no

You did

[jp liz v1]

[Leg End Reject]

I'm far from a city slicker!

I probably would use Santy if I was talking to a Santa-believing child.  Though it’s been years and years since that has even happened.  Like Homer, I avoid that experience as much as possible.

This was along the lines of my vote with disclaimer EN got this morning... I believe I use Santa the majority of the time, but there is a risk if presented with a small child at Xmas the question of whether 'Santy' brought them something nice comes out of my mouth 

[Zaph]

I’m from Dublin and I think it was Santy in my day.  But then I grew up.

Same, it was probably Santy until I was about 7 or 8, after that it's always been Santa.
