Default dual standards haha

Found this a funny last week.

I had a week off work last week so went down to a local fishery for an afternoon trying to hook one of the reisdent browns on the dry fly.

I made myself some sarnies, chucked a can of stella in my bag (as it was walking distance) and off I went.

About 3pm I rested my rod up and went about eating my sarnies. Id just finished and decided to drink the can sat in the warmth of the grass. The bloke and his mate fishing the next peg up from me launched into a tirade of abuse about chavs and no respect blah blah designed for me to hear obviously. Id like to stress here I was sat quietly away from the bank enjoying ONE can of larger, with my waders still on and my tackle proped up neatly against myself!

What happened next beggers belief after i'd finished and restarted fishing these very 2 same guys wandered up onto the bank, laid a picnic blanket down and cracked open a bottle of red to share!!

Ah yes Guppy

It's not what you do it's the way that you do it. I bet you didn't have the little pinkie extended when eating the sarnies. And when drinking beer one decants it into an appropriate glass. Ok? Jolly good show.

I can't drink warm Stella, so always send my Butler back to house to get a can at lunchtime.
