Eye brows the internet.

It's a sly dig implying British superiority over Johnny Foreigner who has had the temerity to indulge in a linguistic evolutionary path different from the slang of the UK over the last 200 years.

Is it? It is? Do you mean having a childish giggle at "cottaging" or the original post on here? I do giggle at the word but never intend any digs or superiority, it's just what the word means to me. How do we get to having a dig? I know Millie saw it that way and she's a sensible woman.

And yes, Millie is a sensible woman. I should probably just have given her a +!.

Ah, I don't remember any other post by the OP. I thought the language used was crass and vulgar but wasn't expecting, seeing any malice apart from towards his neighbour. I take your point though.
