Is it just the UK where customer service is going to hell in a tea kettle, or is it everywhere else too?
It's everywhere. Or at least in the US too.
Except we here in the US don't go to hell in a tea kettle. We go to hell in a bucket.
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Speak for yourself. I go to hell in a handbasket, or occasionally on I-40.

I mostly go to hell via the M1 through central London. There's a portal at junction 29 just south of Leeds.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
yes, but you tell the story in such a way that it's clear that you know that you shouldn't have done it, right?
Yeah, that's probably true.

Omnis, she doesn't sound like long term relationship material, but I still say kiss the girl. Snogging is good.
I'd disagree with this. If you're not into her it's better not to lead her on. Although it's true that snogging is good!

yes, plus if the snogging is good for you, you may try to justify a relationship for more good snogging.
