Feel free to include the worse thing you've bought or been given. Someone bought my wife a shopping trolley thingy, which she'll never use as it's too far from the shops for her to walk and which doesn't fit in the back of the car.
Bestest? REALLY? Oh dear.

Love it Dex, a cook needs a proper boning knife,I’m being serious, oh to cut up a chicken with a proper knife,

I feel the same way,I wonder why we struggle,for me I think it’s because, I don’t realise there is stuff out there that makes life easier,....it’s my pattern of thought.

Google "humour". I really don't need a lesson in grammar from you.

Amusingly, I first heard the word from an English graduate who got his degree from Manchester.

Don't worry about it. Maybe the word "tool" hit raw a nerve with him.

We chose it together.

Back then, as sailors, we had a custom that your engagement ring cost you one month's wages.

That was a good rule, maybe that rule still exists?
