I hate Clapham

[Citizen66]

I imagine they'd be quite pedantic too.

 

[rennie]

If you don't like clapham then just don't go there. Problem solved.

 

[Mr Smin]

At least your description made me laugh.
I only work in the area and so hardly ever go into the shops.

 

[Pip]

you lot would love me. bitter old crones that you are

I'm neither bitter nor old ta. I just don't suffer wankers gladly.

Come on now, you can't sashay round making idiot comments and then throw your toys out the pram when people think you're a prick.

 

[pboi]

im not throwing any toys. its a forum, not to be taken seriously. you would love me

Pardon me for failing to find humour in comments like this.

not all of the posh part, only the first arch. the poshest people ( me) werent affected. serves them right for living next to peasants

Yeah, I'm sure you'd absolutely dazzle me.

 

[gaijingirl]

To be honest Pboi.. given many of your comments on Brixton, I've often thought you'd be far happier in Clapham.

 

[pboi]

Pardon me for failing to find humour in comments like this.

again you missed that thread where I was joshing with the peep who lived at the other end. We have joked about the gates, the prostitues in the bins, eating road kill and nettles !

go eat some lemons

[Pip]

Oh fuck off

I love that defence, "erm, err, what? Erm, I was joking stupid, can't you tell?"

 

[Nanker Phelge]

the peep who lived at the other end

You're at it again!

 

[pboi]

lolwut!

back to your shoebox before I release the hounds

 

[Nanker Phelge]

If you think your dogs are big enough then let 'em out, mate.

 

[pboi]

ah are you one of those chavs who breeds bulldogs?

I shall keep my labradoodlewahhahaas locked up and get back to my waitrose dinner

 

[El Jefe]

If i didn't like the food in The Pepper Tree so much, i would never ever go there

That was the place that gave me a bag of free ingredient when I was stuck for Sunday lunch.

The Pepper Tree's good, and there's a pub in Clapham Old Town that's alright too. But time if I it wrong and trip over the yummy mummies or jumped up nightlifers and I'm not liable for my actions.

Also, I've seen more overt and venomous racism from the posh, pissed up patrons of late shops and take aways here than I have anywhere in Bermondsey, Catford, Lewisham or the like.

 

[Jonti]

This shouldn't surprise you.

Despite the class hatred (unknowingly?) served up by too many broadsheet journalists, it's a simple matter of observation that it is the working class who work and play with, and marry into other ethnic groups.

Not so much the middle classes, not that I see.

 

[pboi]

very true Jonti. less white flight and all that I guess

 

[evilkitty]

The total wanker in my office lives in Clapham. He loves it. Nuff said.

[lizzieloo]

You don't mean bulldogs do you?

 

[pinkmonkey]

I feel your pain Pip. I worked in Battersea for too many years and still bear the scars. Not quite as bad as Fulham mind, a similar kind of overspill for people yearning to be proper sneery sloanes.

I'm old enough to have lived in Clapham when it was all pound shops and old dodderer pubs and I remember Battersea when it was a bit tatty around the edges.

 

[FridgeMagnet]

I like that Polish restaurant in Clapham, or at least I've liked it when I've been there.

Great place. The only time I've been there was with Polish Jesuits, which (I suspect) made the industrial portions even more so.

 

[5t3IIa]

I was going to come in this thread and give it teh 'O ffs what is with people hating a whole area for no good reason? It's ridiculous' but I must say you make a valid argument

I really, really do

I live on Clapham Rd, and while I'm (luckily) about two foot closer to Stockwell than Clapham, it's where I have to do most of my shopping etc.

What a fucking smug shithole. I can't go to the Sainsburys there for all the braying wankers I have to put up with. No lie, last time I was in there one of them went "Oli mate! Basics houmous lol! LEGEND!".

The last straw was the name of a cafe that's recently opened -

Daniel and I opened a cafe



WHO ARE THESE CUNTS?

 

[electrogirl]

'Daniel and I opened a cafe'

That is taking wankness to a new level

Oh, there. I've been there. Had cake or something.

What's polish about it?

 

[FridgeMagnet]

Well, the menu.
